Nitoseal® PU40

Chemical Family
Polyurethanes (PU)

Nitoseal® PU40 is a one part, low modulus gun grade elastomeric sealant based on polyurethane technology. Nitoseal® PU40 may be applied to joints between 5 and 35mm wide. To minimize stress imposed on the joint sealant, all moving joints should be designed to an optimum width to depth ratio of 2:1 with an overriding minimum depth of 5mm for non-porous surfaces and 10mm for porous surfaces.

Priming

A primer is not normally required. In joints subjected to high ovement or where intermittently immersed during service, Berger Fosroc Primer 7 (porous substrates, drying time 30 minutes) or Berger Fosroc Primer 4 (non-porous substrates, drying time 2-5 minutes) is recommended. Prime the joint face using a clean, dry brush. Avoid over application of primer, to prevent causing puddles in the bottom of the joint. If a primed joint on porous substrate is left unsealed for more than 4 hours, the primer should be removed by grit blasting or grinding and the joint re-primed; on non-porous substrate, joint should be re-primed.

Storage

12 months if stored in the original unopened sachets in a cool dry place. Do not store in direct sunlight.

Disposal

Dispose according to local authority regulations. Do not dispose down drains or into local waterways.
