Application Details
Ensure all surfaces are clean, dry and free from dust, grease and loose material. Remove all old gasket material from mating surfaces before cleaning with a residue-free solvent and allowing drying properly. Cut the nozzle at a 45° angle to the desired bead size (3 mm is suitable for most applications) then apply a continuous and even bead along the joint. Cure Mechanism SikaSeal® Appliance cures by reaction with atmospheric moisture. The reaction thus starts at the surface and proceeds to the core of the joint. The curing speed depends on the relative humidity, temperature and thickness of the sealant. At low temperatures, the water content of the air is lower and the curing reaction proceeds more slowly.
Clean Up Uncured, excess SikaSeal® Appliance may be removed with Sika® Remover-208 or another suitable solvent. Once cured, the excess sealant can be trimmed away from the edges with a knife.
Application Conditions/ Limitations
Restrictions On Use SikaSeal® Appliance is not recommended for use in applications where it will be permanently exposed to temperatures exceeding 250°C or in contact with fuels. The above information is offered for general guidance only.
