CAVITY SEALING VIBRATION DAMPING The Right Materials with the Right Design at the Right Place Optimized Panel Damping with SikaDamp® SIKADAMP® solutions comprise a broad family of sound deadeners based on elastomers or bitumen, which can also be coupled with a constraining layer. Designed for best-in-class weight-toperformance ratios, while still providing industryleading damping performance, SikaDamp® can be applied at any point during vehicle assembly or be installed at the stamping location. SIKABAFFLE® AND SIKASEAL® SOLUTIONS use lightweight, pre-shaped molded, extruded, die-cut parts...

APPLICATIONS Typical applications for SikaBaffle® and SikaSeal® products include pillars, roof sections, cowl and rocker areas These products enable complete sealing of vehicle body cavities; with watertight solutions for the lower body and acoustic solutions for dry upper body areas. ACOUSTIC SYSTEMS Cavity Sealing SIKABAFFLE® AND SIKASEAL® products can be processed as highly engineered 3D parts which optimize material usage and enhance performance at the best cost-to-volume ratio. Extrusion and bulk pumpable technology can be used as an alternative targeting applications on narrow-sized...

PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONS Vibration Damping SIKADAMP® products - from the first idea through simulation and prototyping - are developed and manufactured tailored to seal body structure and reduce structure-borne sound. SIKADAMP® ACOUSTIC PORTFOLIO COMFORT - THE EAR PLAYS A CENTRAL PART Some people can tell the make of a car from the slamming of the door alone. In the development process of new vehicles, vehicle sound design is gaining importance in terms of shaping its character, comfort optimization and value perception. Customers' requirements are specifically geared towards eliminating or...
