Product Description:
Protecta FR IPT is a high performance, professional quality, one part ready to use sealant and adhesive. Based on an innovative new Inert Polymer Technology, it is suitable for a wide variety of building trade applications, including decorating, flooring, joinery, plumbing and tiling and out-performs conventional silicone, MSP, butyl and acrylic based products as a sealant and adhesive – the only sealant free from dangerous emissions.
Protecta FR IPT is designed for sealing joints, voids/irregular holes in walls, partitions and other structures, resulting in an airtight and watertight seal. IPT is a non-reactive, environmentally friendly chemistry that ensures compatibility with most building materials and has the unique property of moving dynamically to accommodate the natural or unexpected movements of sealed/bonded joints within a long-lasting building performance.
Protecta FR IPT eliminates the selection choices that need to be made with conventional sealants and adhesives. Choosing a product for a building application can be confusing, especially as there are many products available and within those products a variety of grades, with variations in properties to suit the substrate or application. Protecta FR IPT overcomes this by offering the tradesman one solution for all internal building applications.

– Painted surfaces
LIMITATIONS
– Where metals are not compatible with water contact, they should be primed prior to any sealant application.
– The sealant is soluble in water in wet/uncured state and cannot be used submerged or in rain. Applied sealant must not be sprayed with water or other fluids before skin formation (< 30 min).
– The sealant should not be used outdoors due to the design of the curing process technology.
– Very narrow seals cure faster than normal. There is a special version of IPT that cures more slowly.
– Recommended for use in joints up to 20mm wide, larger joints widths can be accommodated.
