About Sealant Flexibility
More
Self-Leveling Silicone Sealants
Thinner than non-sagging sealants, these flow easily into cracks and have a smooth finish. Made from silicone, sealants are RTV (room-temperature vulcanizing).
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.

Self-Leveling Silicone Sealants with Material Certification
These sealants include a material certificate with traceable lot number, test report, and product shelf life. Thinner than non-sagging sealants, these sealants flow easily into cracks and have a smooth finish. They’re also known as RTV (room-temperature vulcanizing).
Elongation indicates flexibility—the higher the value is, the more a sealant can stretch. These sealants are good for use between dissimilar materials and in environments with wide temperature fluctuation.

Membrane Sealants
Keep water out of single-ply PVC or TPO plastic membranes with these self-leveling sealants. Thinner than non-sagging sealants, they flow easily into cracks and have a smooth finish.
Self-Leveling Oil- and Fuel-Resistant Sealants
Thinner than non-sagging sealants, these flow easily into cracks and have a smooth finish.
Elongation and joint expansion/compression tolerance indicate flexibility. For joints between dissimilar materials and in environments with wide temperature fluctuation, choose a sealant with a higher elongation or joint expansion/compression tolerance. For high-wear applications, choose a harder sealant for the most abrasion resistance.
Sealants that cannot be sold to California exceed local regulatory limits on VOC (volatile organic compounds).

Self-Leveling Chemical-Resistant Sealants
Designed to withstand extreme environments, these fluoroelastomer sealants have excellent resistance to sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid, nitric acid, gasoline, and oil. Thinner than non-sagging sealants, these flow easily into cracks and have a smooth finish.
Elongation and joint expansion/compression tolerance indicate flexibility—the higher the values are, the more joint movement sealants can sustain. These sealants are best suited to joints between similar materials that aren't exposed to wide temperature fluctuation. For high-wear applications, choose a harder sealant for the most abrasion resistance.
Sealants that cannot be sold to the regions listed exceed local regulatory limits on VOCs (volatile organic compounds).

Self-Leveling All-Weather Application Concrete Joint Sealants
Apply these sealants on wet surfaces and in cold temperatures. Thinner than non-sagging sealants, these flow easily into cracks and have a smooth finish.
Sealants that begin to harden in 3 minutes are ideal for sealing pavement saw cuts made when installing buried sensing wires, also known as detector loops. You can walk or drive over the seams right away because they dry tack free within minutes.
Elongation and joint compression/expansion tolerance indicate flexibility—the higher the values are, the more joint movement sealants can sustain.
They cannot be sold to the listed areas due to VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds) regulations.

High-Strength Self-Leveling Concrete Joint Sealants
Seal concrete joints in high-traffic locations—these sealants stand up to heavy wear and tear, such as steel wheel traffic. Thinner than non-sagging sealants, these flow easily into cracks and have a smooth finish.
Silicone sealant is RTV (room-temperature vulcanizing).
Elongation and joint compression/expansion tolerance indicate flexibility—the higher the values are, the more joint movement sealants can sustain. These sealants are best suited to joints between similar materials that aren't exposed to wide temperature fluctuation. For high-wear applications, choose a harder sealant for the most abrasion resistance.
When Sika Sikaflex Polyurethane requires a primer, for best results use Primer 260 on metal and Primer 449 on plastic and rubber.
