Techsil launch Momentive’s High Performance Silicone Adhesive Sealant in UK

1 min read

TN8000 is a one-component silicone adhesive that cures at room temperature forming a resilient flame-retardant rubber. Easy to apply and versatile, it adheres to many materials such as metals, plastics, glass and ceramics without the use of primers. Insulating and waterproof, it can be used in a wide array of industrial sealing and bonding applications such as electronics, solar and communications devices.

Techsil have just launched Snapsil TN8000 into the UK market. TN8000 is a very versatile, high performance silicone adhesive sealant that is manufactured by Momentive Performance Materials in Japan - one of the world’s leading manufacturer of RTV silicones. Snapsil TN8000 is a one-component condensation-curing silicone rubber designed for sealing. It has a thixotropic paste consistency and exhibits excellent corrosion-free adhesion to many substrates such as metals (including copper), plastics, PPO/PPE, ceramics and glass without the use of primers.

Key Features
