Silicone Sealants for Industrial Machines & Equipment
Reliable silicone sealing solutions for industrial machinery, equipment housings, electrical enclosures, control panels, HVAC systems and suitable mechanical assemblies.
Industrial equipment operates under vibration, temperature variation, moisture, dust and demanding working conditions. Redisil silicone sealants can be evaluated for applications where flexible and durable environmental sealing is required.
Silicone Sealing for Industrial Machinery
Industrial machines commonly combine materials such as aluminium, steel, glass, plastics, rubber and composites. During operation, these materials can experience thermal expansion, contraction, vibration and movement.
Silicone sealants provide a flexible sealing layer that can accommodate suitable movement while helping protect joints and interfaces from moisture, dust and environmental exposure.
Redisil offers silicone sealing solutions for selected applications where adhesion, flexibility, environmental resistance and ease of application are important.

Apply
Apply a continuous and uniform bead using suitable dispensing equipment.
Tool
Tool the sealant where required to obtain proper contact and joint finish.
Cure
Allow curing according to the relevant product Technical Data Sheet.
Before Selecting an Industrial Silicone Sealant
Housing, enclosure, panel, joint, cover or interface.
Aluminium, steel, glass, plastic, rubber or composites.
Consider UV, rain, humidity, dust and pollutants.
Evaluate minimum, maximum and continuous temperatures.
Consider thermal expansion, contraction and mechanical vibration.
Consider oils, chemicals, water and cleaning agents.
Manual, pneumatic or automated dispensing.
Evaluate sealing, bonding, weathering, temperature and service-life requirements.
