  Bond-It Pro-Mate LMA Glazing Silicone – Box of 25

  £57.75

  Bond-It Pro-Mate LMA Glazing Silicone is a low modulus, silicone sealant. Ideal for exterior and interior applications where the joint movement does not exceed 20%

  Uses

  Bond-It Pro-Mate is suitable for sealing around doors and windows and for general building maintenance.
  It is ideal for use on:
  – Glass to glass
  – Aluminium to glass
  – Glass
  – Ceramics
  – Most common building materials.

  Preparation

  Before application, ensure all substrates are clean and free from grease or any contaminants that could prevent the product from achieving required adhesion.

  Application

  Apply using a standard-sized sealant gun. Cut the tip from the cartridge with a sharp Stanley blade, making sure not to damage the thread. Cut the nozzle at an angle and fix to the cartridge. Using the gun, apply the sealant to the joint, making sure to achieve the required depth for the joint size. This ensures the sealant will perform at it’s best once cured. Tool off using a spatula or a piece of smooth wood dampened with a soapy water solution.

  Limitations

  Not suitable for use on un-primed metals, types of cement or concrete. In areas subject to fungal or mould growth Bond It, MULTI-MATE silicone should be applied. Joints in which water generates pressure through the substrates on the sealant bond require remedial work before application.

  Preparation

  Ensure all surfaces are dry and free from grease or any contaminants that may hinder adhesion. For best results on movement joints, Bond It EXPANDING FOAM is recommended as a backing material, or a suitable backing tape or rod.

  Application

  All surfaces must be dry and dust and grease-free. Porous materials should be primed for optimum adhesion. Cut the tip of the cartridge, screw-on nozzle and cut at an angle of 45o. Apply at temperatures between +5o C and +45o C using a standard sealant gun. Tool the sealant using the appropriately shaped tooling aid – DO NOT USE A WETTED FINGER.

  Limitations

  Not suitable for use with aquaria. Not suitable for use on bitumen or asphalt. Substrates like marble, sandstone and similar porous surfaces can show a discolouration around the sealant edges. Not suitable for bedding double glazed windows.

  Bond-It ZM10 Zero Meko Silicone – Box of 12

  £29.88

  Bond-It ZM10 Zero Meko Silicone is a specially developed sealant that gives off no solvents or corrosive vapours while curing. ZM10 cures quickly under all conditions when exposed to air.

  Uses

  Bond-It ZM10 is suitable for glazing, curtain walling, metal cladding, weather sealing and bonding of high movement joints. Its unique formulation gives exceptional tooling properties and durability. It is also suitable for sanitary applications including baths, showers, sinks and vanity units, etc. Accelerated ageing tests indicate a life expectancy of more than 25 years.
  It is ideal for use on:
  – Glass
  – Ceramics
  – All metals
  – Metal cladding
  – Concrete
  – Painted and unpainted timber
  – Brick
  – Plastics, including PVCu
  – All painted surfaces

  Application

  Apply using a standard sized sealant gun. Cut the nozzle at 45° angle, using a sharpe blade. Cut nozzle to an opening slightly larger than the joint to be sealed. To acheive a technically superior joint, use a polyethene foam backing rod, that is pushed into the joint before sealing. This will also minimuise how much sealant is used.

  Limitation

  Porous surfaces should be primed first. Do not use on substrates where water can penetrate through porous materials. Furthermore, this product is not suitable for use on natural stone where colour bleed may occur, use Bond It “The One” Silicone for these applications.

  Uses and Application Areas

  • Low modulus non-staining sealant with anti-fungal properties.
  • Fast cure rate.
  • Outstanding UV, weather, and ageing resistance.
  • Adhesion to numerous substrates, such as granite, composite stones, ceramic tiles, brickwork, metals, plastics also compatible with copper.
  • Low modulus (conforms to ISO 11600 F&G 25 LM).
  • Movement capability up to 50% (ASTM C920 class 50).
  • Non-staining (ISO 16938-1, ASTM C 1248).
  • Sealing joints in premier bathrooms & kitchens.
  • Glass to glass joints.
  • Sealing glass to metal.
  • Expansion joints in brickwork/stonework.

  Joint dimensions

  The minimum joint size suggested is 5mm x 5mm for internal use and external use 10mm x 8 mm (width x depth). Maximum recommend width of the joint is 30mm x 30mm, but the joint depth should be roughly half the joint width for the ideal seal.

  Tooling

  After applying the sealant, it can be smoothed in the joint with water or with a neutral, non-staining water-based smoothing agent and a suitable tool (e.g., Bond-It Applicator Kit). Smoothing the sealant isn’t just recommended for aesthetic reasons, but it will assist in the bonding of the sealant to the substrate.

  TYPICAL PROPERTIES FOR DOW CORNING 781

  These values are not intended for use in preparing specifications. Please contact your local Dow Corning sales office or your Global Dow Corning Connection before writing specifications on this product

  HOW TO USE

  SURFACE PREPARATION

  Ensure that surfaces to be sealed are clean, dry, sound and free from frost, release agents, old sealants and other contaminants which could impair adhesion. All surfaces should be cleaned by wiping with a suitable solvent such as DOW CORNING R40 Universal Cleaner on a clean oil- and lint-free cloth before application of sealant.

  Note: When using any solvent, always provide adequate ventilation. Avoid heat, sparks and open flames. Use solvent resistant gloves. Observe and follow all precautions listed on solvent container label.

  Dow Corning C60 Low Modulus Silicone

  £3.35 – £3.40

  Dow Corning C60 Low Modulus Silicone Sealant is a one-part sealant, which has been specially developed for use by the sealant contractor. It has excellent adhesion to a range of porous and non-porous substrates. Such as PVCU, glass, anodized and painted aluminium, metal cladding, brickwork, painted and unpainted wood.

  HOW TO USE DOW CORNING C60

  Surface Preparation

  Ensure that surfaces to be sealed are clean, dry, sound and free from frost. Clean all joints of release agents, water repellents, laitance, dust, dirt, old sealants and other contaminants, which could impair adhesion.

  Non-porous surfaces should be cleaned by wiping with a suitable solvent such as DOW CORNING R40 Universal Cleaner on an oil and lint-free cloth. Porous substrates should be mechanically cleaned using a steel brush or any similar means.

  Masking

  Areas adjacent to the joints should be masked with tape to prevent contamination of the substrates and to ensure a neat sealant line. Masking tape should be removed immediately after.

  Priming

  No primer is required for PVC-U and most common construction substrates. However, a test placement before general use is always recommended. Also, please refer to the Dow Corning Primer Guide if unsure.

  Backing Materials

  Closed cell polyethene backer rod is recommended as a backup material to provide back pressure and avoid three-sided adhesion. This limits the sealant movement capability. Low tack tape should be used in joints too shallow to allow the use of the backer rod.

  Finishing

  The joint should be tooled within 5 minutes of application to ensure good contact between the sealant and the substrate. Tooling of the sealant also gives a smooth, professional finish.

  Clean-Up

  The excess sealant may be cleaned off tools and non-porous surfaces while in an uncured state using DOW CORNING R40. If the sealant is misapplied to porous substrates, it should be left until just cured, and then removed by cutting or other mechanical means.

  STORAGE

  DOW CORNING C60 Silicone Sealant should be stored in cool and dry conditions. When stored at or below 30° in the original unopened container. Also, DOW CORNING C60 Silicone Sealant has a shelf life of 12 months.

  LIMITATIONS

  – Should not be used in structural glazing or insulating glazing.
  – Do not use on bituminous substrates, substrates based on natural rubber or EPDM
  – Do not use in a confined space because the sealant requires atmospheric moisture to cure.
  – It is not recommended for use on submerged joints or in joints where abrasion will occur.
