New to the UK via Techsi, SnapSil TN8000 is a versatile, high performance silicone adhesive sealant manufactured by Momentive Performance Materials in Japan.

SnapSil TN8000 adhesive is a one-component condensation-curing silicone rubber developed 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.
Offering high strength and elongation, it is available in three colour options – white, black and grey – and fast room temperature cure and neutral alkoxy cure types.
Flame retardant (UL94HB classified), the product offers excellent adhesion after even extended aging, as well as impressive dielectric properties.
Potential applications include: Sealing and bonding for Solar/PV module components; insulating adhesive sealing and fixing of electrical and electronic parts; Waterproof sealant for electrical, electronic and communication equipment; General adhesive for metals, glass, plastics, etc.
