For some years now, SolPro has been a sales partner in Turkey for ELASTOSIL^® solid silicone rubbers. These heat-curing silicones are used, for example, for fireproof cables, seals, profiles and O-rings. “So far, our cooperation with SolPro has been extremely good. The company has in-depth expertise in elastomers and has earned an excellent reputation as a silicone supplier,” said Dr. Bernd Pachaly, head of the Elastomers business unit, while explaining the decision. “While reorganizing our sales channels, we decided to entrust SolPro with the distribution of our RTV-2 silicones and specifically the ELASTOSIL^® M product line as well. We are convinced that, together with SolPro, we can successfully strengthen and further expand our market position in mold making.”

RTV-2 silicones have diverse uses as sealants, adhesives, and as encapsulation and coating compounds. Hence, they are applied in a wide variety of industrial areas, including the automotive, electronic, construction and domestic appliance industries, as well as in the fields of mechanical and medical engineering. A common material in mold making, RTV-2 silicones are characterized by their ease of processing at room temperature without the need for complex equipment, their high permanent elasticity, excellent release properties and their extreme fidelity of reproduction. In both industry and the skilled trades, their high stability to casting materials makes them ideal for creating large numbers of reproductions.
