A Unique Single Solution for Wide-Ranging Applications
In anti-flutter and spot welding paste sealing applications, SikaSeal® adhesives provide good adhesion to standard OEM steel and aluminum substrates, as well as protecting the metal against age-related corrosion. They also offer excellent wash-out resistance, meaning they do not cause contamination of the phosphatization or EC baths in the body shop.
SikaSeal® adhesives excel in preventing bond-line read-through (BLRT) without compromising the strength of weld spots. Additionally, SikaSeal® can be used as a spot-welding paste sealant.
Versatile Performer
SikaSeal® offers a standard product and a Universal product that captures the best of all requirements. SikaSeal® products are typically used for hang-on parts (doors, hoods, and tailgates), roof rails and body structure areas. They are typically applied as a bead, spotted bead, or dot and sometimes a combination of all three. Although this product is applied with standard cold follower plate equipment, the application system set up depends on the total length of pipes between the drum and nozzle.
