Product Introduction
Momentive Silmate RTV1473 is a black, one-component silicone sealant formulated for formed-in-place gasket applications requiring excellent oil resistance. It cures at room temperature by moisture exposure to create a resilient, elastomeric gasket. Its thixotropic paste consistency ensures no sagging on vertical or overhead surfaces, while its strong adhesion, weather resistance, and thermal durability make it ideal for mechanical sealing applications.
Momentive RTV1473 Features
- One-component, ready-to-use RTV silicone
- Thixotropic paste for controlled application
- Strong primerless adhesion to many substrates
- Oil-resistant gasket performance
- Temperature stability up to 204°C continuous / 260°C short-term
- Excellent weather, ozone, and environmental resistance
- Compatible with automated dispensing systems
Momentive RTV1473 Applications
- Formed-in-place gasket creation (wet bead or cured bead)
- Engine housings, gear covers, and mechanical sealing surfaces
- Oil system sealing where gasoline immersion is not present
- Field maintenance and gasket replacement
