Description
Silirub A is a premium grade, one part, acetoxy curing, silicone sealant for sanitary, glazing, construction and industrial applications.
Characteristics
- Very fast curing acetoxy silicone (very low dirt pick up). Typical vinegar odour.
- Contains a powerful anti-fungicidal agent to restrict the growth of mould.
- Thick-bodied formulation for ease of use. Excellent break off and tooling.
- Excellent primerless adhesion on many common construction materials (glass, ceramic, porcelain, metals and wood). For natural stone applications we recommend the use of SILIRUB MA. For PVCu and cementious applications we recommend the use of SILIRUB neutral silicones e.g. Silirub 2, Silirub LMN, Silirub N.
- Resistant to UV, rain, snow and ozone, and many chemicals.
