SIKAFLEX PRO - POLYURETHANE JOINT SEALANT 600ml

Sika 600ml Sikaflex Pro Polyurethane Joint Sealant

Sikaflex®-PRO is a one component, thixotropic, polyurethane based joint sealant. It cures under the influence of atmospheric moisture to form an elastomeric material with adhesive properties, in some cases without the need for priming of the substrate.

Sikaflex®-PRO is supplied throughout the world by Sika® and conforms to the most stringent sealant standards, for example:

• US Federal Specification TT-S-00230C, Type II, Class A.
• BS4254: For one part polyurethane based sealants for the building industry.
• JIS A 5758: For one part polyurethane based sealants for the construction industry.
