TIGER SEAL - U-POL

Specifications

The U-POL TIGER SEAL (Model Number: UP0728) is a single-component, moisture-cured polyurethane sealant and adhesive. It weighs 0.16 lbs and measures 1 x 1 x 1 inches. This urethane formula exhibits a skin formation time of approximately 30-60 minutes at 70-72°F and 50% relative humidity, achieving a through-cure of about 1/8" (3mm) per 24 hours under the same conditions. It maintains stability within a temperature range of -40°F to +190°F, with tolerance for short intervals up to +250°F.

Key Features

• One-Component Formula: This product is a ready-to-use, single-component solution that requires no mixing, simplifying application.
• Multi-Substrate Adhesion: TIGER SEAL bonds directly to a wide array of materials, including steel, aluminum, brass, iron, fiberglass, most plastics, glass, wood, ceramics, and painted surfaces.
• Permanently Flexible: The cured sealant remains permanently flexible, ensuring it does not shrink, become rigid, or brittle over time.
• Immediate Paintability: TIGER SEAL can be tooled and painted immediately, even when wet, using most waterborne and solvent-based paint systems.
• Moisture Cured: The sealant cures through reaction with atmospheric moisture, contributing to its robust performance.
