About Sealant Flexibility

About Structural Adhesives

Apply these sealants on wet surfaces and in cold temperatures. They’re non-sagging, so they won't drip from vertical and overhead surfaces.

Sealants with 1,000% elongation can be applied through running water.

Elongation and joint compression/expansion tolerance indicate flexibility—the higher the values are, the more joint movement sealants can sustain. Sealants that are good for joining dissimilar materials also work well in environments with wide temperature fluctuation.

Sealants that cannot be sold to the regions listed are restricted by local chemical regulations, including limits on VOC (volatile organic compounds).

Sealants

These sealants are non-sagging, so they won't drip from vertical and overhead surfaces.

Elongation and joint compression/expansion tolerance indicate flexibility. For joints between dissimilar materials and in environments with wide temperature fluctuation, choose a sealant with a higher elongation or joint compression/expansion tolerance. For high-wear applications, choose a harder sealant for the most abrasion resistance.

Non-Hardening Caulk

Also known as thumb-grade caulk, this forms a non-hardening, moisture-resistant seal that remains pliable.

Butyl rubber has a sticky, gummy consistency.
