Basic Uses
Used to seal building joints to prevent the penetration of rain, air, and noise. It effectively weatherproofs junctions of building materials and can also be used for sealing curtainwall, mullion, and other building construction joints, and for glazing steel and aluminum windows, painted and plastic coated wood windows, interior glass partitions, and skylights. Permanent watertight bonds are made with this sealant, in combination with glass, ceramic, steel, plastics, and painted surfaces. In addition, many maintenance applications are possible where long life, reliability, and sealing properties are required.
