How to Use 0 <br /> Linear Feet of Sealant per Gallon <br /> Surface Preparation Clel surfaces.Joint walls must be sound,clean, Depth <br /> dry,frost-free,and free of oil and grease.Curing <br /> compound residues and any other foreign matter must Inches '/a / <br /> be thoroughly removed.A roughened surface will also <br /> enhance bond. Install bond breaker tape or backer rod tip 308.0 <br /> to prevent bond at base of joint. <br /> 154.0 77.0 <br /> Priming Priming is not usually necessary.Most substrates only <br /> require priming if testing indicates a need or where seal- v % 102.7 51.3 <br /> ant will be subjected to water immersion after cure. 3: 1 77 0 38.5 <br /> Consult Sikaflex Primer Technical Data Sheet or Techni- <br /> cal Service for additional information on priming. 1 y2 61.6 30.8 <br /> Application Recommended application temperatures:40'-100°F, 1 3/4 51.3 25.7 <br /> For cold weather application,condition units at approxi- <br /> mately 70°F;remove prior to using. <br /> For best performance,Sikaflex-1a should be gunned into joint when joint slot is at mid-point of its designed <br /> expansion and contraction. <br /> Place nozzle of gun into bottom of the joint and fill entire joint.Keep the nozzle in the sealant,continue on <br /> with a steady flow of sealant preceding the nozzle to avoid air entrapment. <br /> Avoid overlapping of sealant to eliminate entrapment of air.Tool sealant to ensure full contact with joint walls <br /> and remove air entrapment.Joint dimension should allow for 114 inch minimum and 112 inch maximum thick- <br /> ness for sealant.Proper design is 2:1 width to depth ratio, <br /> For use in horizontal joints in traffic areas,the absolute minimum depth of the sealant is i12 in,and closed <br /> cell backer rod is recommended. <br /> Limitations ■ Allow 1-week cure at standard conditions when using Sikaflex-1 a in total water immersion situations and <br /> prior to painting. <br /> ■ When overcoating with water,oil and rubber based paints,compatibility and adhesion testing is essential. <br /> ■ Avoid exposure to high levels of chlorine.(Maximum continuous level is 5 ppm of chlorine.) <br /> • Maximum depth of sealant must not exceed 112 in.;minimum depth is 114 in. <br /> w Maximum expansion and contraction should not exceed 25%of average joint width. r, 'E <br /> ■ Do not cure in the presence of curing silicone sealants. c <br /> III Avoid contact with alcohol and other solvent cleaners during cure. Im <br /> ■ Do not apply when moisture-vapor-transmission condition exists from the substrate as this c0lCMist <br /> bubbling within the sealant. f 6 <br /> ■ Use opened cartridges and uni-par-sausages the same day. <br /> ■ When applying sealant,avoid air-entrapment. ENVIR01�M���A�H�t <br /> ■ Since system is moisture-cured,permit sufficient exposure to air. MITISERVICES <br /> ■ White color tends to yellow slightly when exposed to ultraviolet rays. SER <br /> ■ Light colors can yellow if exposed to direct gas fired heating element. <br /> ■ The ultimate performance of Sikaflex-1 a depends on good joint design and proper application with joint <br /> surfaces properly prepared. <br /> ■ The depth of sealant in horizontal joints subject to traffic is 112 in. <br /> ■ Do not tool with detergent or soap solutions. <br /> ■ Do not use in contact with bituminouslasphaltic materials, <br /> Caution WARNING:IRRITANT,SENSITIZER.Contains Polyisocyanate Prepolymer(Mixture),Xylene(CAS <br /> 1330-20-7).
