What is Silicone sealant ?

Our single-component silicone adhesives are RTV-1 (room-temperature vulcanizing) systems that cure with humidity. They serve as a silicone adhesive sealant : a single product that bonds and seals.

Available in neutral (alkoxy/oxime) and acetoxy, with varieties from transparent "clear RTV" to black, and in flowable or thixotropic, paste-like consistencies.

Key Features

  • 1-component: straight from the tube/cartridge; no mixing required
  • Bonding + sealing: one product for bonding and sealing
  • Surfaces: metal, glass, ceramics, many plastics* and painted parts
  • Performance: temperature resistant, elastic, durable

*Check datasheet and primer recommendations; some plastics (PE/PP/PTFE) require pretreatment.

Choosing silicone adhesive: curing, color and processing

Neutral vs acetic acid

  • Neutral (alkoxy/oxime): corrosion-free, widely applicable
  • Acetic acid (acetoxy): excellent glass/ceramic bonding

Transparent or black

  • Transparent: "clear RTV" for inconspicuous seams
  • Black/white/gray: aesthetics, contrast or opaque

Flowable vs. pasty

  • Flowable: self-levelling, capillary flow
  • Pasty: thixotropic, stable on vertical surfaces

WACKER ELASTOSIL E41 Silicone adhesive

ELASTOSIL E41 (also known as elastosil e41 and wacker elastosil e41) is a popular neutral curing RTV-1 for bonding and sealing in general engineering.

Available in various colors and viscosities; see the ELASTOSIL RTV-1 product overview for specifications, primer recommendations, and application tips.

  • Adhesion to glass, metals, ceramics and many plastics

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Is there a difference between silicone glue and silicone sealant?

In practice, we use the umbrella term "silicone adhesive sealant": a single product that both bonds and seals. The differences lie primarily in viscosity (flowable vs. pasty) and the curing system (neutral vs. acetic acid).

When should I choose a neutral silicone adhesive instead of an acetic silicone adhesive?

Neutral (alkoxy/oxime) is corrosion-free and widely applicable (glass, metals, electronics). Acetic acid (acetoxy) adheres very well to glass/ceramics but can corrode certain metals.

Does RTV-1 adhere to metal and glass without a primer?

Often, yes, but the highest and most durable adhesion is achieved with thorough cleaning/degreasing and, if necessary, a suitable primer/adhesion promoter. Consult the datasheet.

Getting Started

Compare neutral/acetic acid, transparent/black, and flowable/pasty. For a quick start, we recommend WACKER ELASTOSIL E41 as a versatile RTV-1 silicone adhesive. Contact us for the best match for your substrates and temperature class.
