Butyl sealant for mounting fittings

Permacol Permakit is a butyl rubber based sealant for bonding and sealing of fittings. This one-component sealant is easy to use and provides a tough, flexible and permanently waterproof seal under fittings. Permacol butyl sealant is easy to apply and also easy to remove again.

Features Butyl sealant

Butyl rubber sealant with a very low solvent content. After solvent evaporation, it forms a durable, plastic, aging- and weather-resistant sealing compound with excellent properties. Full curing depends on temperature and applied quantity. Due to the high solids content, shrinkage is also limited. RESION Butyl Sealant is suitable for many sealing applications but is not suitable as a structural adhesive.

• Clean processing without the use of solvents.
• Bonds to many surfaces.
• Durable plastic compound.
• Does not dry out.
• For both the professional and the DIY user.
• Stable (does not drip).
• Prevents contact corrosion (between different metals).
• Vibration damping.

Applications

• Mounting fittings on boats.
• Construction and repair of caravans.
• Sealing between sheet metal parts, metal overlaps etc.
• Separating layer to prevent contact corrosion.

Directions for use

Please process Permacol Permakit butyl rubber sealant in the following manner:

• The parts must be dry, clean, and free of oil and grease. Minor traces of moisture, oil, and/or grease may be absorbed by the sealant.
• Apply the butyl rubber sealant between the parts to be fitted or on one of the parts.
• Assemble the parts (when assembling the parts, the sealant spreads easilly even when screwing in screws).
• Remove the excess material with a spatula so that the remaining sealant can dry more quickly.
