  Sika Hyflex 250 Facade – 600ml

  £9.99 £6.79

  Sika Hyflex 250 Facade is a 1-component, moisture-curing, low-modulus elastic joint sealant.

  USES

  Sika Hyflex 250 Facade is designed for the elastic joint sealing and waterproofing of movement and connection joints in buildings. Due to its very low modulus, it is also suitable for EIFS Facades.

  CHARACTERISTICS / ADVANTAGES

  – Excellent weathering resistance
  – Bubble-free curing
  – Low stress to the substrate
  – Perfect extrusion and workability
  – Excellent adhesion to many different substrates
  – Solvent-free
  – Very low emissions

  APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS

  PREPARATION

  Substrates must be clean, dry and homogeneous, free from oils, grease, dust and loose or friable particles. The product adheres without primers and/or activators. However, for optimum adhesion and critical, high-performance applications, such as highly stressed joints & extreme weather exposure or water immersion, the following priming or pre-treatment procedures shall be followed:

  Non-porous substrates

  Before applying the sealant, allow a flash-off time of > 15 minutes (< 6 hours). However, metals such as copper, brass and titanium-zinc have to be cleaned. Using Sika Aktivator-205, wipe the solution on with a clean cloth or towel. After the recommended flash-off time, use a clean brush to apply Sika Primer-3 N and then allow additional flash-off time of > 30 minutes (< 8 hours) before sealing the joints.

  Porous surfaces

  Cement based renders, concrete, aerated concrete and bricks need to be primed using Sika Primer-3 N. Clean off any dust with a dry brush & then apply the primer with a separate brush. Allow a flash off time of 30minutes to 8 hours before sealing.

  For more advice and instructions, please contact Sika Technical Services.

  Note: Primers help with improving adhesion. They do not substitute for the correct cleaning of a surface & they do not enhance the strength of the surface significantly.

  APPLICATION METHOD / TOOLS

  The sealant is ready to use. After the necessary surface preparation, insert a backing rod to the required depth and apply any primer if needed. Furthermore, insert a foil pack into the sealant gun and apply sealant into the joint, making sure that the sealant comes into full contact with the sides of the joint and avoids any air entrapment.

  CLEANING TOOLS

  All tools and equipment should be cleaned immediately after use with Sika® Remover-208 and/or Everbuild Wonder Wipes. Once set, residual material can only be removed mechanically.

  LIMITATIONS

  Sika Hyflex 250 Facade can be painted with a number of facade coatings. However, it is advised you carry out preliminary trials to check.

  – Colour variations may occur due to exposure to chemicals & high temperatures. However, a change in colour is pure of aesthetic nature and does not influence the technical performance.
  – Before using Sika Hyflex 250 Facade on natural stone, please refer to Sika Technical Service for advice.
  – Do not use Sika Hyflex 250 Facade on bituminous substrates, natural rubber, EPDM rubber or on any building materials which might bleed oils, plasticisers or solvents.
  – Do not expose uncured Sika Hyflex 250 Facade to alcohol-containing products as this may interfere with the curing reaction.

  Sika Sikaflex 221

  £8.95 £6.25

  Sika Sikaflex 221 is a high-quality multi-purpose non-sag, polyurethane sealant that cures on exposure to atmospheric humidity to form a durable elastomer.

  PRODUCT BENEFITS

  – 1-C formulation
  – Elastic
  – Low odour
  – Resistant to ageing
  – Non-corrosive
  – Can be painted
  – NSF-approved for incidental food contact.

  CHEMICAL RESISTANCE

  It is temporarily resistant to fuels, mineral oils, vegetable and animal fats and oils. However, it is not immune to organic acids, alcohol, concentrated mineral acids and caustic solutions or solvents. Furthermore, any advice on specific applications will be given on request.

  METHOD OF APPLICATION

  Surface preparation

  Surfaces must be free from all traces of grease and dust.
  Above all, if you need any advice on specific applications, then contact the Technical Service Department of Sika Industry.

  Over-painting

  The paint must be tested for compatibility by carrying out preliminary trials, and the best results are obtained if the sealant is allowed to cure thoroughly first, especially in the case of baked enamels. Therefore, please note that non-flexible paint systems may impair the elasticity of the adhesive, impair joint movement and lead to cracking of the paint film.

  PVC based paints and paints that dry by oxidation (oil or alkyd resin-based) are generally not suitable for application over Sikaflex -221.

  CHARACTERISTICS / ADVANTAGES

  – Excellent water resistance
  – High chlorine resistance
  – Excellent resistance to fungal attack. In other words, it is non-corrosive

  USES

  Sika Sikasil Pool is a sealant designed for joints in and around frequently wet areas between tiles, concrete, glass and metals. However, different prep work may apply.

  CHARACTERISTICS / ADVANTAGES

  – Excellent water resistance
  – High chlorine resistance
  – Excellent resistance to fungal attack
  – Non-corrosive
  – High elasticity and flexibility

  SUBSTRATE PREPARATION

  The substrate must be clean, dry, sound and homogeneous, free from oils, grease, dust and loose or friable particles. Sikasil Pool adheres without primers and/or activators.
  However, for optimum adhesion and critical, high-performance applications, such as on multi-story buildings, highly stressed joints, extreme weather exposure or water immersion, the following priming and/or pretreatment procedures shall be followed:

  Other metals, such as copper, brass and titanium-zinc

  These also have to be cleaned and treated using Sika Aktivator-205, wiped on with a clean towel. After the necessary flash-off time, use a brush to apply Sika Primer-3 N and allow a further flash-off time of at least 30 minutes to 8 hours before sealing the joints. Also, when using on PVC, it has to be cleaned and pre-treated using Sika Primer-215.

  Porous substrates

  For instance, areas such as concrete, aerated concrete and cement-based renders, mortars and bricks shall be primed using Sika Primer-3 N applied with a brush. Before sealing, allow a flash-off time of > 30 minutes (< 8 hours).

  For more detailed advice and instructions, please contact the local Sika Technical Services Department.

  APPLICATION METHOD / TOOLS

  After the necessary substrate preparation, insert a suitable backing rod to the required depth and apply any primer if needed. After that, insert the cartridge into the sealant gun and extrude Sikasil Pool into the joint. Make sure that it comes into full contact with all sides of the joint and avoids any air entrapment.

  To ensure adequate adhesion, make sure Sika Pool is tooled firmly after extruding product into the joint. It is recommended to use masking tape where exact joint lines or neat lines are required. Remove the tape within the skin time. Use a compatible tooling agent to help smooth the joint surfaces.
