Shin-Etsu KE347TUV Flowable Silicone Coating With UV Tracer

Description

KE347TUV coating is a one-part Shin-Etsu silicone material for electronics sealing, form-in-place gasketing, and protective coating work. It cures at room temperature into a tough elastomer and includes a UV tracer for inspection.

KE347TUV coating Benefits

• One-part format removes mix ratio checks and pot life waste from small jobs.
• Room-temperature cure supports bench work, repair stations, and low-heat assemblies.
• UV tracer lets inspectors confirm placement and coverage under suitable lighting.
• Neutral cure, low odor chemistry helps protect sensitive metals and electronics.
• Unprimed adhesion to metals, plastics, glass, and ceramics helps simplify many assemblies.

This product is useful where a flowable silicone path is needed around components, seams, or housings. KE347TUV coating can protect parts from moisture exposure, vibration, and light handling stress while leaving an inspection aid in the cured bead.

Where KE347TUV coating Fits

• Sealing electronics housings, connectors, and wire exits.
• Form-in-place gasketing on small metal or plastic enclosures.
• Coating selected circuit areas where UV inspection is required.
• Bonding glass, ceramic, plastic, or metal parts in low-stress assemblies.
• Repair work where a one-part RTV silicone is easier than a two-part system.

Surface Preparation and Use

Start with clean, dry substrates. Remove flux residue, oil, mold release, and loose particles before dispensing. Because silicone cure depends on moisture and bead geometry, confirm cure depth and tack-free time on the actual bead size before releasing parts.

Use steady dispensing pressure and avoid trapping air in narrow channels. For electronics work, confirm compatibility with nearby components, coatings, and cleaning chemicals.

Technical Details and Documentation

Available technical data lists KE347TUV as a high-viscosity, neutral-cure silicone with UV tracer, 100,000 cP viscosity, 3 minute tack-free time, and service range from -40 C to 180 C. Review current product-family information from Shin-Etsu Silicone before production use.
