- Characteristics
BondSeal BS8460 is a high bonding strength adhesive. It is a non-slump (thixotropic), additioncuring, two-component silicone that cures at elevated temperature to a very tough rubber with excellent bonding strength to various plastics and substrates. It is non-corrosive and self-priming adhesion, and can be automated to dispense from needle or hand extruded from cartridge.
- Special Features & Benefits
- Non-slump, non-sag (thixotropic)
- Very strong bonding to various substrates
- Flowable
- Low bleeding, low volatile
- Low thermal stress

- For flowable version of this adhesive, please select the United Adhesives’ product BondSeal BS8440.
- For thermally conductive bonding adhesives, please select the United Adhesives’ products Thermobond 3517 or 3519.
- Processing Instruction
- Important! BondSeal BS8460 is platinum cure system. Please keep applied surface clean and avoid using this material on any surface that contains sulfur, amine, phosphorous, organo-metals, acid, etc. because these contaminants could inhibit the cure the material.
- Only components A and B with the same lot number may be processed together.
- We recommend running preliminary tests to optimize conditions for the particular application. Comprehensive processing instructions can be obtained by contacting directly to United Adhesives Inc.

Storage & Handling
- Storage
BondSeal BS8460 has a shelf life of at least 6 months when stored between 4°C and 23 °C in the originally sealed container. Storage beyond the date specified does not necessarily mean that the product is no longer usable. In this case however, the properties required for the intended use must be checked for quality assurance reasons.
