RTV 500 High Temp Red Silicone is a single component, non-sag gel that cures to a tough, rubbery solid at room temperature on exposure to water vapor in the air (acetoxy cure.)
This Silicone was formulated to perform at temperatures ranging from -85 to 500 degrees Fahrenheit (-65 to 260 degrees Celsius) and at 600(316 degrees Celsius) degrees Fahrenheit.
It is ideally suited for the following typical applications: applying ceramic tiles and bricks, sealing and encapsulating heating elements in appliances, bag filters on smoke stacks and manifolds.
It's designed to meet the requirements of MIL-A-46106A, Amend. 2, Type 1, and when fully cured and washed meets the requirements of FDA Regulation #21
