According to RW Greeff, assembly lines often suffer bottlenecks waiting for sealants to cure and HM2500 provides immediate hold so users can move parts from one processing step to the next without delays and ship them as fast as they can be produced.
Dow Corning HM2500 provides longlasting adhesion to PVC, aluminum, painted and treated wood, highperformance paints, plastics and various substrates.
It is compatible with most common component materials without needing a primer.
Long open time, pot life and moderate application temperature of 121C offer userfriendly characteristics.
High viscosity at room temperature resists flow of material reducing sealant squeeze out and clean up.
