   Seamseal CV

Description

Seamseal CV - Non-setting bedding sealant for metal joints.

Key Features
Quality assured to ISO 9002 High performance bedding sealant with a solvented release curing system Good adhesion to a wide variety of surfaces, especially coated metals Excellent application characteristics either with hand applied or air operated guns Easy to tool and clean off Does not form a skin but leaves a dry surface which remains pliable after curing Excellent weather resistant properties Good performance in low movement joints Standard colours: Cream & White(Grey & Black available subject to batch orders)

Technical Approvals
Seamseal CV is a non-drying bedding sealant as described in the National Caravan Council Joint Sealing Manual.

Uses
For bedding seams, mouldings, rails, window and door frames and many other types of covered joints in portable buildings, caravans, holiday homes, boats, freight containers and transport vehicles. For sealing some seam or lap joints in metal constructions such as industrial roofing, cladding and ducting. : Not recommended for use on surfaces which can be affected by white spirit eg bitumen.

Performance
Adhesion: Good to wood, brick, concrete, glass and many metal surfaces including painted aluminium and steel. Base technology: Synthetic rubber polymer. Curing system: Solvent evaporation. Mould Resistance: Good. Movement accommodation: ±5%. Paintability: Not recommended Service life (predicted): 10+ years. Service temperature range: -20oC to +80oC. Shrinkage: Approximately 8%. Slump: Nil (up to 20mm x 10mm vertical channel). Specific gravity/density: 1.6g/cm3. Staining: Nil. UV resistance: Good Volatile content: <8%.

Application Properties
Application temperature range: +5oC to +30oC] Curing: Seamseal CV cures by evaporation of solvent. Full cure normally occurs in 2-4 days. Rate of cure will depend on thickness, ambient temperature, joint size and design. Lower temperatures and drier conditions will result in a slower rate of cure Priming: Primers are not normally required for good adhesion to most metals Shelf life: 12 months when stored in cool, dry conditions Skinning time: Does not skin. The surface of the sealant will appear dry to the touch after several days but will remain pliable beneath the surface Working time: Approx 20 minutes
