Description
Teknos Teknoseal 4001 Colourless Elasticone-component clear V-joint sealer. For the sealing of V-joints in wood and wood/aluminium windows and doors against moisture ingress in exterior use. Comes in a caulk gun with nozzle attached, ready for use.
Low odour formulation with good ageing and weather resistance as well as good UV resistance. Maximum movement tolerance is 25% and the volume loss max. 4%.
Surface Preparation
- Make sure the substrate is dry, firm and free from possible contaminants like dust and grease.
- Note that using a V-joint filler is no substitute for proper joinery and fully gluing corner joints.
- Pre-treatment may be required for wood substrates not meeting Durability Class 3.
- Teknos state that YOU MUST PRIME THE SURFACE BEFORE APPLYING TEKNOS TEKNOSEAL 4040-00 COLOURLESS.
Application
- The V-joint can be smoothed with water and a suitable tool (e.g., jointing trowel).
- Remove excess smoothing agent and be sure that excessive water/humidity is completely removed.
- The recommended application thickness is a maximum 2mm.
Application Conditions
- The surface to be treated has to be dry.
- During the application and drying period the temperature of the ambient air, the surface and the product should be between 15°C and 40°C.
- The relative air humidity should be below 80% for optimum results.
- Upon ongoing contact to moisture, the joint will get slightly hazed. This effect is reversible and disappears once the joint becomes fully dry again.
- Ensure good ventilation during application and curing.
Drying Times
- The drying times will vary as influenced by the amount of product applied to the surface, as well as different surface attributes, humidity, temperature and ventilation.
- The following drying times were determined at 23°C and 50% relative humidity:
- Dry to handle: 2 hours.
- Fully cured: approx. 24 hours (with a maximum of 2mm application thickness).
Safety Information
- May produce an allergic reaction.
- If you need medical advice have the tin and/or label at hand.
