3、S-M4G323-A8 SEALANT, SILICONE RUBBER, OXIME CURED, HIGH VISCOSITY, BLACK WSS-M4G323-A11 1. SCOPE The material defined by this specification is a one component thixotropic spreadable silicone rubber based adhesive/sealant. It is capable of being pumped, metered and distributed into a gasket profile.

4、These materials are ready for use as received, requiring no catalyst or heat cure. 2. APPLICATION This specification was released originally for materials used for formed-in-place gaskets such as engine oil pan, rocker cover, cylinder block or oil pump, where high operating temperatures (up to 204 C

5、) may be encountered. WSE-M4G323- A4 Low viscosity, low modulus oxime cured material with limited blowout resistance and long assembly time and good adhesion between steel to aluminum and aluminum to aluminum on clean and oiled panels. This material has very poor resistance to coolant/water and must

6、 not be used for these applications. Blow out resistance is low in gaps above 0.5mm. A6 Very high viscosity, medium modulus, oxime cured material with excellent blowout resistance and long assembly time, good oil resistance and excellent adhesion and robustness to joint movement on oiled steel and a

7、luminum panels. This material has very poor resistance to coolant/water and must not be used for these applications. WSS-M4G323- A8 High viscosity, high modulus, oxime cured material with very good blowout resistance and low assembly time, dependable oil resistance, good adhesion and robustness to j

8、oint movement on oiled steel and aluminum panels. This material is used primarily for driveline sealing but also has good resistance to coolant/water. A11 High viscosity, medium modulus, oxime cured material with excellent blowout resistance and long assembly time, good oil resistance and excellent

9、adhesion and robustness to joint movement on oiled steel and aluminum panels. This material has very poor resistance to coolant/water and must not be used for these applications.
