Tectorius® has introduced five new grades to its long-standing Tec-U-Seal™ line of pre-applied fastener sealants.
Varying in softness, elasticity and self-adhesion, for ‘stay in place’ easy assembly, the five new grades are available in different colours to offer custom, signature product identification for customers.
Tec-U-Seal™ pre-applied fastener sealants are a unique resin matrix sealing and seating material for under head encapsulation. Specifically designed to flow and adhere to most metals and smooth surfaces, Tec-U-Seal is a low cost and effective alternative to O-ring seals, injection moulded seals, and die cut gaskets. Self-adhering grades permit fasteners to be pre-assembled and retained in position until final attachment is complete.
Tec-U-Seal works by compression seating. The material absorbs shock, prevents movement and fills gaps created by thermal expansion. Its elastomeric nature minimises movement and resists loss of seating and sealing ability in stressed situations.
Tec-U-Seal grades are also thermosetting, non-plastisol polymers that are solvent resistant and thermally stable. Advanced formulations offer multiple options for application and curing, demanding low energy processes making them friendly to most plantings and non-metal applications.
