Description
Sikaflex 290DC PRO Black 600ml, The Professional Deck Caulking Compound
Product Overview
For timber and teak decks that need to be completely watertight and weather-resistant, Sika has developed Sikaflex 290DC PRO. This extremely easy-to-use, Hi-UV-resistant, one component polyurethane deck-caulking compound can, once cured, be flush-sanded with the deck to supply a beautifully neat, clean finish.
Sika’s Marine Teak Deck Maintenance System preserves and cares for new and weathered teakwood as well as for all other kinds of wood applied above the waterline. Sikaflex 290 DC PRO and Sikaflex-298 are major elements of Sika’s Totally Glued Teak Decking System.
Sikaflex 290DC PRO Black The Professional Deck Caulking Compound, 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).
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. Tests with actual substrates and conditions have to be performed to ensure adhesion and material compatibility.
