Tikalflex Contact 12 Adhesive Sealant
- For bonding and sealing
- Very strong 1-component sealant
- In black, white and grey
Tikalflex Contact 12 is a powerful, universal one-component MS polymer adhesive, specially developed for demanding applications in the construction, yacht building, caravan and marine sectors. This neutral adhesive sealant combines very high final strength with long-lasting elasticity, making it ideal for structural bonding exposed to vibration, load and moisture.
The adhesive bonds exceptionally well to almost all commonly used materials, without the need for a primer. Tikalflex Contact 12 also cures reliably on damp substrates and even under water.
