Working Temperature
Adaptable temperature after curing: -40℃ to 150℃
Sealant Colour
Regular black; or other colors requested by customers.
Usage Method
- The base materials and auxiliary materials selected for the project must be tested for adhesion and compatibility, and can be put into use only after passing the test.
- The design and construction of the project must strictly abide by the technical specifications stipulated by the state for relevant projects, and refer to the “GIRAFE Silicone Structural Sealant Usage Guide”.
- Air circulation should be maintained during construction and curing environments.
- The bonding surface of the substrate must be cleaned with cleaning solvents such as toluene, xylene or acetone.
- After the glue fills the joints, use a scraper to squeeze further inward to completely fill the joints with glue, and modify the glue surface before it solidifies.
Restriction of Usage
- Cannot be used on all material surfaces that will exude grease, plasticizers or other organic solvents
- Not suitable for use in airtight places, because silicone structural sealant needs to absorb moisture in the air to cure
- Not suitable for use on frosted or damp surfaces
- Not suitable for use on places that are continuously soaked in water or humid all year round
- Not suitable to work when the surface of the substrate is not clean or solid.
- It is not suitable for construction when the surface temperature of the material is lower than 10°C or higher than 40°C
- It should not be used at interfaces that bear structural strength on the ground or in areas subject to excessive physical damage.
*300ml/cartridge; 24 cartridges/ctn
*590ml/sausage; 20 sausages/ctn
9 months when stored in a cool, dry place below 27°C
GB 16776-2005; Be compatible with FDA, CE and ROHS
- We supply integrateddata, technical consultation and free compatibility test.
- Solving problem in the course of using timely.
- Silicone sealants release volatile compounds during the curing process, which may be harmful to health ifinhaled for a long time, so good ventilation should be maintained in the construction site.
- The cured silicone sealant no longer releases harmful substances and will not have any harmful effects on the body.
- Keep uncured silicone sealants out of the reach of children. If they accidentally get into the eyes, please rinse with plenty of water and seek medical attention.
Interface Design & Construction Methods
Please refer to “GIRAFE Silicone Structural Sealant Construction Guide”
Guarantee
- Our company has passed IS09001 and 15014001 management system certification, and strictly produces and controls product quality according to the requirements of 1S09001 quality system. In August 2006, it was approved as a certified enterprise for the production of silicone structural sealants for construction.
- After the user purchases the product and determines the construction unit and project, our company will issue a quality guarantee for silicone structural sealants.
Maintenance
- Generally no maintenance is required. If the silicone structural sealant seam is damaged, remove the ineffective silicone structural sealant, clean the substrate surface, and then fill it with silicone structural sealant.
- GIRAFE brand silicone structural sealant can adhere well to the cured silicone glue.
