Product Introduction
Momentive SNAPSIL™ RTV128 is a translucent, one-component, thixotropic silicone adhesive sealant designed for vertical and overhead sealing, bonding, and electrical insulation applications. As part of the RTV122/RTV123/RTV128 family, RTV128 shares identical performance characteristics while differing only in color. It cures at room temperature through a moisture-reactive system, providing strong primerless adhesion to many metals, rigid plastics, and glass. It exhibits excellent weatherability, thermal resistance, flexibility, and chemical resistance.
Momentive SNAPSIL™ RTV128 Features
- Primerless adhesion to metals, rigid plastics, and glass*
- Non-corrosive to aluminum and steel per MIL-A-46146A+
- Lower odor cure compared to traditional acetoxy sealants
- One-component, room-temperature moisture cure
- Excellent electrical insulation characteristics
- Wide temperature performance from –60°C to 204°C, short-term to 260°C
- Outstanding ozone, weather, and chemical resistance
- UL Recognized under File No. E-36952
Momentive SNAPSIL™ RTV128 Applications
- Sealing and bonding in vertical joint assemblies
- Joining metal-to-plastic and glass-to-metal materials
- Electrical insulation of terminals, connectors, and wiring
- Formed-in-place gasket fabrication
- Industrial sealing in harsh environmental conditions
- Applications requiring long-term flexibility and durability
*Not suitable for polycarbonate due to ammonia by-product effects.
+May discolor copper and brass.
