Processing
ELASTOSIL® E10 RED CARTRIDGE shows good primer less adhesion to many substrates. We recommend running preliminary tests to optimize conditions for the particular application.

Storage
The ‘Best use before end’ date of each batch is shown on the product label.
Storage beyond the date specified on the label does not necessarily mean that the product is no longer usable. In this case however, the properties required for the intended use must be checked for quality assurance reasons.

Safety notes
During vulcanization of ELASTOSIL® E10 RED CARTRIDGE, a total of 3% by weight of acetic acid is split off. These vapours should not be inhaled for long periods or in high concentration. Work areas should therefore be well ventilated. Contact of unvulcanized silicone rubber with eyes and mucous membranes must be avoided as this would cause irritation. However if it does happen, rinse the affected area thoroughly with water.
