High-Temperature Silicone: A Reliable Solution

Heat-resistant silicone is used for filling and sealing within its specified temperature range. Heat resistance does not make it a thermal insulation material. Its durable structure delivers lasting performance in industrial and household uses, making high-temperature silicone a reliable option for strong, long-lasting service.

Features of Heat-Resistant Silicone

Heat-resistant silicone is considered for filling and sealing within its stated temperature conditions. Selsil X Heat-Resistant Silicone cures with moisture, resists UV and contains no solvents. Heat resistance is not equivalent to fire-resistance certification. Joints requiring fire protection need a system tested for that purpose.

Uses of Heat-Resistant Silicone

Heat-resistant silicone is used in many industrial areas, particularly façade applications, aluminium surfaces and high-temperature environments. It is also common in automotive applications.

Benefits of Heat-Resistant Silicone

Heat-Resistant Silicone

Suitability depends on the technical temperature range and intended use. This property alone is insufficient for firestopping or a smoke barrier; relevant testing and system information are required.

Bonding Performance

Heat-resistant silicone offers high bonding performance on different surfaces, enabling varied applications.

Suitability for Different Surfaces

Selsil X Heat-Resistant Silicone can be applied to aluminium, glass, glazed ceramics and metal. Do not assume the same suitability for plastic or other materials; check its technical instructions.

Using Selsil Heat-Resistant Silicone

Façade Applications

Selsil silicone is ideal for façade applications. Its durable structure resists external conditions and provides a lasting solution.

Fast-Drying Formulation

Selsil X Heat-Resistant Silicone has a surface drying time of 11–12 minutes at 23°C and 50% relative humidity. Its curing rate is 2 mm per day. A dry surface does not mean the entire application has cured; consider thickness and ambient conditions.

Applications of Heat-Resistant Silicone

Use on Aluminium

Formulated especially for aluminium surfaces, heat-resistant silicone provides excellent adhesion and lasting durability.

Resistance to High Temperatures

Distinguish application temperature from the temperature resistance of the cured product. Selsil X Heat-Resistant Silicone specifies an application range of 5–40°C and temperature resistance of 150–180°C. Suitability for ovens, heating systems or machinery depends on actual operating conditions and equipment manufacturer instructions.

High-Performance Adhesive Options

Heat-resistant silicone offers high-performance adhesive options for different surfaces. This variety makes it ideal across a wide range of applications.

Choosing and Using Heat-Resistant Silicone

Colour Option

Selsil X Heat-Resistant Silicone is supplied in red in a 280 ml pack. Check colour and packaging against current product information.

Outdoor Façade Use

High-temperature silicone can be used safely on façades. Resistance to UV, moisture and weather provides lasting protection.

Benefits of Its Fast-Drying Formulation

Distinguishing surface drying from full curing helps determine when the application is ready for use. Do not judge the waiting time by appearance alone; follow the instructions and consider thickness.
