Silicones

OBA's association with Dow Corning extends over 25 years and we are a prime distributor for their electrical and electronic product range. Silicants are formulated to provide excellent adhesion to many surfaces, offering high mechanical strength while absorbing stress and vibration, and provide protection for electrical components in both high and low temperature environments. Our range includes the popular RTV732 adhesive sealants, as well as high temperature, non-slump, flowable, non-corrosive, petroleum-resistant grades.

    Notes
    1. For 31120 & 3120 two typoe of Catalyst are available
    Cat S is the standard catalyst that provide a curing time of between 5 to 12 hours, depending on ration for 3110 and 6 to 12 hours for 3120
    Cat F is a fast curing catalyst that will bring the Demould time to between 37 and 100 minutes, depending upon the mix ratio for 3110 and 25 to 90 minutes for 3120
