Description
Areas of Application
Chemical Resistance
Application
Cartridges:
Pierce
cartridge
membrane. Unipacs: Place unipac in
the application gun and snip off the
closure clip. Cut off the tip of the
nozzle to suit joint width and apply
the sealant into the joint with a
suitable
hand
operated
or
compressed air gun, taking care to
avoid air entrapment. Once opened,
packs should be used up within a
relatively short time. Do not apply at
temperatures below 41F (5C) or
above 104F (40 C). The optimum
temperature for substrate and
sealant is between 59F (15C)
and 77F (25C). For advice on
selecting and setting up a suitable
pump system, as well as on the
techniques of pump operated
application, please contact the
System Engineering Department of
Sika Industry at tsmh@us.sika.com.
Tooling and finishing
Tooling and finishing must be
carried out within the tack free time
of the sealant. We recommend the
use of soapy water. Other finishing
agents or lubricants must be tested
for suitability/compatibility.
Removal

preliminary trials. Sikaflex
should not be exposed to baking
temperatures until it has attained full
cure. The hardness and film thickness
of the paint may impair the elasticity of
the sealant and lead to cracking of the
paint film with time.
Limitations
Avoid application below 41F (5C)
and above 104F (40C). Do not
apply on frozen or wet surfaces or
through standing water. Do not
apply over silicones or silane
terminated polymer sealants or in
the presence of curing silicones or
silane terminated polymer sealants
Contact with alcohol or alcoholcontaining solvents will prevent
cure.
Danger
Contains: titanium dioxide (CAS:
13463-67-7), xylene (CAS: 1330-207), ethylbenzene (CAS: 100-41- 4),
