GA-201 Gasketing Resin
Description
GA-201, a UV/Visible light-curable, tack-free, moisture and chemical-resistant FIP/CIP gasket for sealing heat-sensitive substrates such as plastic enclosures. Used as an alternative to tapes, PSA die-cut gaskets, 2K epoxies, silicone rope, or RTV sealants, it helps reduce labor costs and part handling while increasing production throughput. GA-201 can be easily dispensed into intricate and complex configurations and can accommodate design changes without investment in additional tooling. The material cures on-demand, eliminating the need for racking and the waste associated with poorly fitting or improperly aligned die-cut gaskets. GA-201 gasketing material acts as a barrier to prevent absorption or penetration of air, dust, noise, liquids, gaseous substances or dirt. It provides reliable protection, is easy to use (dispense and cure), cures without damaging heat-sensitive substrates, is cost-effective, and reduces process time and part handling.
Specs
| Viscosity (nominal) | 65,000 cP |
|---|---|
| Cured durometer hardness | A35 |
| Cured compression set (85°C, 22 hr.) * | 26% |
| Recommended substrates | Plastics, Glass, Aluminum, Stainless Steel, Plated Surfaces |
| * | Compression set is expressed as the percentage of deflection per ASTM D395 Method B at 25% deflection. To determine percent recovery, subtract 1/4 of the value from 100%. For example, the recovery is 98.8% with a 5% compression set. |
