Specification

LIMITATIONS
Allow 1 week cure at standard conditions when using
Sikaflex® + Construction Sealant in total water immer-
sion and prior to painting.
▪
Avoid exposure to high levels of chlorine. (Maximum
continuous level is 5 ppm of chlorine.)
▪
Maximum depth of sealant must not exceed 1/2 in.
(12.7 mm); minimum depth is 1/4 in. (6.3 mm).
▪
Maximum width of sealant must not exceed 1 in. (25.4
mm).
▪
Maximum expansion and contraction should not ex-
ceed 25 % of average joint width.
▪
Do not cure in the presence of curing silicone sealants.▪
Avoid contact with alcohol and other solvent cleaners
during cure.
▪
When using on green/new concrete, concrete must be
good quality and strength, sealing poor or low strength
concrete 24 hours after may impact the ability of the
sealant to gain proper adhesion.
▪
On wet concrete, water source must be stopped 1 hour
before application and concrete must be free of stand-
ing water.
▪
Do not apply when moisture-vapor-transmission condi-
tion exists from the substrate as this can cause bub-
bling within the sealant.
▪
To avoid bubbling, do not apply when ambient air and
substrate temperatures exceed 100
o
F (38
o
C). In ex-
treme summertime conditions, preferably install seal-
ant when ambient air and substrate temperatures are
falling.
▪
Use opened cartridges the same day.▪
When applying sealant, avoid air-entrapment.▪
Since system is moisture-cured, permit sufficient ex-
posure to air.
▪
The ultimate performance of Sikaflex® + Construction
Sealant depends on good joint design and proper ap-
plication with joint surfaces properly prepared.
▪
Do not tool with detergent or soap solutions.▪
White color tends to yellow slightly when exposed to
ultraviolet rays.
▪
Light colors can yellow if exposed to direct gas fired
heating elements.
▪
Do not use in contact with bituminous / asphaltic ma-
terials.
▪
When overcoating with water-based, oil-based or rub-
ber-based paints, compatibility and adhesion testing of
mock-up installations is essential.
▪
Do not use paints which are silicone based or have a
high solvent content. Avoid solvent-based and alcohol-
based primers, stains, sealers and coatings.
