  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.

  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.

  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 DOWSIL 781

  These values are not intended for use in preparing specifications. Please contact your local Dow Corning sales office or your Global Dowsil 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 DOWSIL 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.

  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 tooling.

  PRIMING

  All joint surfaces other than glass and glazed ceramics should be primed. Furthermore, for specific advice, please refer to the DOWSIL ® Primers’ Guide or contact one of Dowsil’s Regional Service Centre for technical assistance.
