Sikaflex-415 Universal - Versatile One-Part Polyurethane Sealant
Specifically designed for both sealing and bonding in various construction applications. This product is ideal for use in sealing floor and wall joints, construction joints between concrete slabs, movement joints between precast concrete elements, and general-purpose bonding in construction projects. Its excellent flexibility and durability make it a reliable choice for demanding environments.
Key Features and Applications:
-
Elasticity and Movement Capability: Sikaflex-415 Universal can accommodate movement up to ±25%, adhering to ISO 9047 standards. This feature ensures that it can handle the natural expansion and contraction of building materials without compromising the integrity of the seal.
-
Chemical Resistance: The product is highly resistant to water, sea water, dilute alkalis, and cement slurry, making it suitable for use in environments where these substances are present. However, it is important to note that Sikaflex-415 Universal is not resistant to alcohols, organic solvents, concentrated alkalis, acids, hydrocarbons, or fuels. Care should be taken to avoid exposure to these substances.
-
Durability and Weather Resistance: Sikaflex-415 Universal is formulated to withstand harsh weather conditions, ensuring long-lasting performance. It meets the requirements of EN 15651-4 for pedestrian walkways, making it suitable for outdoor applications where exposure to the elements is a concern.
-
Professional/Industrial Use: This sealant is designed for professional or industrial use only. Users must be trained in accordance with the REACH regulations before handling the product in industrial settings.
Important Considerations:
-
Substrate Preparation: Proper preparation of the substrate is crucial for achieving optimal adhesion. The substrate must be clean, dry, and free of contaminants such as oil, grease, or poorly bonded coatings. For certain substrates like aluminium, stainless steel, and concrete, specific primers or activators may be required to enhance adhesion.
-
Application Restrictions: Sikaflex-415 Universal should not be used on bituminous, natural rubber, or EPDM rubber substrates due to the risk of degradation caused by the leaching of oils or plasticisers. Additionally, it is not recommended for sealing joints in and around swimming pools.
-
Over-Painting: While the product can be over-painted with most conventional paint systems, users should conduct preliminary trials to ensure compatibility. It is not advisable to use rigid paint systems on joints subject to movement, as they may crack.
-
Tooling and Finishing: After application, the sealant should be tooled immediately to ensure a smooth finish and full contact with the joint sides. Avoid using solvent-based tooling products during this process.
Environmental and Safety Information:
-
Eco-Friendliness: Sikaflex-415 Universal is designed to have minimal environmental impact. It does not contain components considered to have endocrine-disrupting properties or persistent, bioaccumulative, and toxic (PBT) substances.
-
Safety Precautions: The product may cause an allergic skin reaction (H317). Users should wear appropriate protective equipment, including gloves and safety glasses, to avoid direct contact with the skin and eyes. In case of skin contact, wash the affected area with plenty of water. If irritation persists, seek medical attention.
-
Storage: Store Sikaflex-415 Universal in a dry, well-ventilated area, away from incompatible materials such as alcohols and organic solvents. The product should be kept in its original, unopened packaging until ready for use.
