• Compatible flue systems
• Stoves and heating appliances
• Boilers
• Ovens
• Gaskets
• Fireplace components
• Other surfaces exposed to temperatures up to 300°C

Always check the operating temperature of the joint before application. For areas exposed to temperatures above 300°C or direct flames, choose a product designed for that specific application.

Compatible Materials

The silicone provides good adhesion to many common materials, including:

• Glass and glazed surfaces
• Enamel
• Ceramics
• Impregnated wood
• Painted wood
• Untreated wood
• Many suitable plastics

However, surface treatments and different types of plastic may affect adhesion. Therefore, test the sealant on a small hidden area when you are unsure about compatibility.

How to Apply Vitcas Heat Resistant Silicone

1. First, make sure the appliance and application area are completely cold.
2. Remove dust, grease, loose material and old sealant from the joint.
3. Make sure the surfaces are clean and dry.
4. Cut the cartridge nozzle to produce the required bead size.
5. Fit the cartridge into a suitable sealant gun.
6. Apply an even bead directly into the joint.
7. Tool and smooth the sealant before a surface skin begins to form.
8. Finally, allow the silicone to cure fully before exposing it to heat.

Curing Information

Curing time can vary depending on the temperature, humidity, joint depth and surrounding materials. A thick bead or a cool environment may increase the curing time.

Do not operate the appliance or expose the sealant to heat until it has cured fully. Always follow the instructions and curing times shown on the product packaging.

Important Safety Information

• Apply only when the appliance and surrounding surfaces are cold
• Do not use above the stated maximum temperature of 300°C
• Do not expose uncured silicone to heat
• Do not use where the sealant will come into direct contact with flames
• Confirm compatibility before applying to plastics or coated surfaces
• Use in a well-ventilated area
• Follow all instructions and safety warnings shown on the packaging
