	CHEMICALS CONAC 51000 Industrial Silicone Sealant/Adhesive CONAC 51000 Industrial Silicone Sealant/Adhesive is a one-part, moisture-curing RTV (room temperature vulcanizing) silicone that cures to a strong, silicone rubber that maintains long-term durability and flexibility. It’s a non-slump sealant and can be applied to vertical or overhead surfaces without flowing or sagging. CONAC 51000 is a 100% Acetoxy silicone sealant, it has excellent resistance to weathering including ozone, ultra-violet radiation, freeze-thaw conditions, and airborne chemicals. CONAC 51000 has excellent adhesion to glass, metal, porcelain, ceramic, wood, most plastics, and many other non-porous substances. CONAC 51000 can be applied to surface temperatures from -18°C to +50°C (0°F to +120°F) and after curing, withstands constant operating temperatures from -57°C to +233°C (-70°F to +450°F). TYPICAL USES: is an excellent sealant and adhesive for many industrial applications where long-term, permanently flexible bond or seal is required. DIRECTIONS: is ready to use and requires no mixing or additives. The cure mechanism begins as soon as the sealant comes in contact with the air. At conditions of 25°C (77°F) and 50% relative humidity, the sealant will “skin” in 10 minutes and fully cure in 24 hours (1/8” bead) and reaches it’s maximum adhesion in 7 days. Higher humidity accelerates cure. Tooling, if necessary, should be done before “skinning” takes place. In applications where partial or total confinement of sealant is prevalent, the time required for proper cure is generally lengthened by the degree of confinement. SURFACE PREPARATION All surfaces should be clean and dry. It is recommended that bonding surfaces be solvent wiped with naphtha, ketones, or chlorinated solvents. Specific solvents would include xylol, totuol, and mineral spirits. In case of plastics, determine suitability of solvent prior to use. allow surface to dry thoroughly before applying sealant. Do not solvent wipe with alcohols or oil-containing solvents such as Varsol. PRIMING: is not normally required for applications to non-porous surfaces. Unprimed adhesion can be easily tested by applying a small trial bead and allowing 7 days for maximum adhesion to occur. If primer is required, contact CONAC. PACKAGING CONAC 51000 is supplied in 10.2 fl. oz. caulking cartridge. TYPICAL PHYSICAL PROPERTIES     800-336-2598 www.conacweb.com
