Sikaflex®-290 DC PRO Black
DESCRIPTION
Sikaflex®-290 DC PRO is a 1-component polyurethane based joint sealing compound, specifically formulated for caulking joints in traditional timber marine decking. It exhibits excellent weathering resistance and is therefore
well suited for highly exposed open joints
within the maritime environment. The sealing
compound cures to form a flexible elastomer
which allows a fast and easy sanding process.
Sikaflex®-290 DC PRO meets the requirements set out by the International Maritime
Organisation (IMO).
PRODUCT BENEFITS
▪ Excellent weathering resistance
▪ Robust and durable
▪ Easy and fast sandable
▪ Ideal flow behavior for application
▪ Long toolability
▪ Unique aspect
▪ Resistant to seawater and fresh water
AREAS OF APPLICATION
Sikaflex®-290 DC PRO is designed for caulking
of joints in traditional timber decking for
boat-, yacht and commercial ship constructions.
This product is suitable for experienced professional users only. Test with actual substrates and conditions have to be performed
to ensure adhesion and material compatibility.
Application
For satisfactory results the adhesive must be
applied with adequate equipment such as
pump, dosing units or piston operated application guns.
Sikaflex®-290 DC PRO can be processed
between 5 °C and 35 °C but changes in reactivity as well as application properties need to
be considered. The optimum process temperature (substrates, climate and product) is
between 15 °C and 25 °C.
Removal
Uncured Sikaflex®-290 DC PRO can be removed from tools and equipment with Sika®
Remover-208 or another suitable solvent.
Once cured, the material can only be removed mechanically. Hands and exposed skin
have to be washed immediately using Sika®
Cleaner-350H or a suitable industrial hand
cleaner and water. Do not use solvents on
skin!
