What is PU 40 polyurethane sealant used for?
- Sealing & Bonding in automotive industry
- General coach-building, caravans & motor-homes assembly as well as repairing
- Bus Body & truck industries
- Thermal & acoustic insulation technology in refrigeration, air-conditioning
- Suitable substrate materials include timber, metals, particularly aluminium, sheet steel, metal primers, paint coatings, ceramic materials as well as plastics
- Joint sealing for construction applications, Eg: expansion joints
How to use Polyurethane sealant for metal bonding applications
- Before application, make sure that the surface is free from dust and grease. This will otherwise inhibit the process of application of the sealant.
- We recommend that you conduct a preliminary compatibility test before proceeding to use the sealant for its desired purpose.
- Apply the sealant evenly. If required, use masking tape to mark the areas of application. Before it cures, make sure to remove the tape.
- The ratio of the joint width to the depth ratio should be 2:1.
- Further, it is recommended to use a backup material if you feel like joint adjustment is required.
- You may use backer rods and bond breakers to facilitate the adhesion. It should adhere only to two surfaces of the joint.
- Take care to follow the standard industrial application procedures. Clean the fun after use before giving the sealant time to cure.
Metal to Metal Bonding & Sealing
Supex PU 40 polyurethane sealant, is a one-component, high-modulus polyurethane sealant that cures on exposure to atmospheric humidity. It possesses excellent adhesion to sheet iron, aluminum, stainless steel, lead, copper, ceramic, glass, wood and various plastic materials.
- Body construction of cars, containers, caravans etc.
- Sealing and bonding of ventilation ducts, gutters and spouts etc.
- Sealing of sheet metal seams
- For vibration reduction in all type of sheet metal assembly works
- Sealing against water, air, gas and dust.
Automotive Polyurethane sealant
Especially used in automotive industry, in the manufacture of vehicles, in the sealing of metal structures such as containers and trucks, in the manufacture and installation of air conditioning in HVAC systems, in order to reduce vibration and provide sealing in metal sheet joints.
Metal is a versatile material that is used in many areas, including the construction industry, mechanical engineering and the automotive industry. However, metal is susceptible to various environmental influences such as moisture, UV radiation and aggressive chemicals, which can lead to corrosion and wear. To protect metal and prolong its life, there are various options such as metal sealing, metal coating or metal protection paint.
A metal sealer is a special corrosion protection for metal, which is applied to protect the surface of the metal from environmental influences. Sealing for metal may be available in the form of sprays, paints or coatings, depending on the specific requirements of the project.
