RUBBER STOP is a one-part, neutral silicone sealant that will not stain exterior substrates. It exhibits good adhesion without primer on most building materials and displays outstanding weather resistance and durability.
PACKAGE SIZE AND COVERAGE
a 40g container's coverage depends on the area of application
USES/AREA OF APPLICATION
Can be used for joints in sanitary fittings, e.g. between floor or wall and shower or wash basins.
Particularly developed for areas exposed to high humidity where protection from water and mildew damage is essential
CLIENT BENEFITS
Long shelf life
Non-sag
Readily gunnable both at low (+50 C) and high (+400 C) temperatures
Good tooling properties
Good adhesion
Good weatherability
Excellent durability
Excellent primeless adhesion to most non-porous siliceous materials (e.g. glass, tiles, ceramics enamel, glazed tiles); metals (e.g. aluminum, steel, zinc or copper); impregnated, varnished or painted wood; and some plastics.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
SURFACE PREPARATION
A smooth surface must be sanded to achieve good adhesion.
The surface must be free from rust and other contaminants.
Remove weak portions of the substrate.
Let the surface dry off. Remove oil and grease.
For application using cartridges, cut the thread open, fix the nozzle on top, and cut to the required bead size.
The sealant can be applied in beads or in layers.
The curing time can take longer at lower temperatures, low humidity, or air exchange volume as it requires moisture in the air to cure.
APPLICATION
Apply RUBBERSTOP with a barrel gun into the prepared joint and tool immediately to achieve a leveled surface.
LIMITATIONS
RUBBERSTOP is not suitable for:
Food-grade applications, where the joints are likely to come in contact with food.
Sealing aquariums or for long-term use underwater.
