Silicone adhesive ELASTOSIL® E43 N, transparent, tube/ 90 ml
RG # 4151741

Silicone adhesive ELASTOSIL® E43 N, transparent is a one-component silicone rubber, universally applicable for sealing, bonding, and coating in all industries, including the food sector.

• Recommended temperature range -50 °C to +180 °C
• UV and weather resistant
• Thixotropic
• Food compatible
• Electrically insulating
• Condensation-curing

Silicone adhesive ELASTOSIL® E43 N has the same properties and characteristics as ELASTOSIL E43, but thanks to a modified formulation, it can be used in an even wider range of applications in the food sector. The silicone adhesive is suitable for direct contact with food and complies with the relevant guidelines of the German Federal Institute for Risk Assessment (BfR) and the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

Application:
Can be used for almost all sealing, bonding, and coating applications. The material's applications are correspondingly extensive and varied in various industries, e.g., the automotive industry, mechanical engineering, industrial plants, electrical industry, textile industry, workshops, laboratories, food sector, and the DIY sector.
