Request Information
Gasket adhesive sealants form in place on complex surfaces and channel configurations, and then cure in place upon exposure to UV/Visible or LED light exposure. They act as a barrier to protect surfaces from dust, noise, and other destructive elements and replace labor-intensive tape, die-cut gaskets, and other sealant technologies.

  • Complete cure to 1/4 inch-thick-beads in little as 30 seconds
  • Excellent adhesion to glass, plastics, plated surfaces, and metal enclosures
  • Low-to-high, non-sag viscosities
  • Eliminate ovens, racks, and stacking
  • Reduce the waste caused by poor fitting or improper alignment of die-cut gaskets
  • Slick-to-pressure-sensitive surface tack
  • Automotive, lighting, electronic mobile device, electrical, HVAC, window, and energy applications

Note for Cured Compression Set at 85 Degree Celsius (ºC) Temperature, 22 Hours (h))

 N/A Compression set is expressed as 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.

 N/A Flexible, Light-Curable Form-in-Place Gasket Adhesive

Dymax® GA-142 is a form-in-place (FIP) and cure-in-place (CIP) gasketing resin formulated for electrical enclosures, HVAC ductwork, and automotive casing applications which require a soft, sticky, flexible, low compression set. GA-142 has good adhesion to plastic, metal, and also ceramic surfaces. Easily dispense the material into intricate and complex configurations with the benefit of curing in-line, which allows for increased production speed, greater output, lower processing costs, and reduced inventories.

Dymax® materials have no solvents added and cure upon exposure to light. Their ability to cure in seconds results in lower processing costs. When cured with Dymax® UV light curing spot lamps, focused beam lamps, flood lamps, or conveyor systems they deliver optimum speed and performance for maximum efficiency. Dymax® lamps offer the optimum balance of UV and visible light for the fastest, deepest cures.
