Sil Poxy Silicone Adhesive
PRODUCT OVERVIEW
Sil-Poxy™ is a one component adhesive made specifically for bonding Smooth-On RTV moldmaking silicone rubbers to silicone
rubber and other substrates including some plastics (urethane), plasters/ceramics, fabrics, etc. Sil-Poxy™ will work with Smooth-On
tin or platinum cure moldmaking silicones and provides a strong, flexible bond between silicone parts with high elongation. Can be
colored with Silc-Pig™ silicone pigments. Cured adhesive resists weathering, moisture, UV and high temperatures. Sil-Poxy™ can be
used repairing torn silicone rubber molds. Other applications include bonding silicone for prosthetics and animatronics.
