Product Description
BLUESIL RTV 148 A&B (with hardener 147 B) is a two-component, addition-curing RTV-2 silicone that cures at room temperature to a softer (Shore A 40), heat-resistant elastomer.
RTV 148 A has a significantly lower viscosity than RTV 147 A at approx. 10,000 mPa·s and is processed with hardener RTV 147 B in a ratio of 100:10. RTV 147 A and 148 A can be mixed in any proportion to adjust hardness.
Low-viscosity, addition-curing RTV-2 silicone with a soft formulation (Shore A 40), excellent thermal stability, and good pouring and deaeration properties, designed for thermal protection and flexible insulators.

Important Notes
- Addition curing is sensitive to inhibition: avoid sulfur-containing rubbers, metal-salt-catalyzed RTV, tin-stabilized PVC, and amine-crosslinked epoxides; if in doubt, test beforehand.
- Viscosity can be reduced by up to 10% with BLUESIL FLD 47V100 before curing. Linear shrinkage approx. 0.1% at room temperature.
- The currently valid Elkem data sheet (TDS and SDS) is authoritative, which we will be happy to send you.
