- COLOURSEAL combines a factory-applied low-modulus
silicone, acrylic impregnated expanding foam sealant and
closed-cell (EVA) foam into a unified binary sealant system
- The expanding foam laminations are Flowseal
- an open-cell polyurethane foam impregnated with a water-based,
stabilised, polymer-modified acrylic
- The silicone external and colour weather facing
is factory-applied to the foam while it is partially pre-compressed.
The silicone is then cured and when finally compressed,
a bellows is formed in the coating. The bellows virtually
eliminates tensile stresses at the silicone/substrate interface
- Puncturing of the silicone facing does not
affect the seal integrity
- COLOURSEAL is supplied shrink-wrapped and
pre-compressed in 2 metre lengths
- Choice of 4 standard colours (black, grey,
white, & brick), with further choice of 7 non-standard
colours
- Suitable for joint sizes 20mm - 150mm (others
available)
- High movement capabilities: +/- 50% of nominal
joint width

|
- Joint movement capability of up to +/-50%
of nominal joint width
- Features the UV resistance, durability and
the impermeability of silicone
- Virtually eliminates tensile stresses at bond
line and adverse effects of movement occurring before field
applied silicone cures
- Reduced installation, labour and material
charges
- Less reliant on meticulous substrate preparation
- Seal integrity maintained if silicone is punctured
- Easy to install
