GETO PUR 21s: top ratings for new universal sealant
The considerably-improved formula of Titgemeyer’s new GETO PUR 21s universal sealant helps the product achieve top ratings in all respects. One of the main requirements taken into account when enhancing this sealant product was the need for much better strength performance, especially when used at high summer temperatures. GETO PUR 21s achieves this goal with room to spare, with features such as an increase in elongation at tear from 450% to 650%. This improvement in elasticity makes GETO PUR 21s an ideal sealant for expansion joints, with material shrinkage during setting reduced by half, to just 3%. This virtually rules out the possibility of sealant in the fillet welds under the surface coating shrinking to allow coating product to seep through. GETO PUR 21s also delivers better performance thanks to its tensile strength and extra tear resistance, making it even more versatile as a combined adhesive and sealant. This new sealant, when used in conjunction with GETO PUR 52 adhesive for construction purposes, provides an ideal combination of sealant and adhesive for the toughest specifications that trade and industry can come up with, ensuring top ratings in any quality or performance comparison.
Whether indoors or out, both products can now be applied even faster and more smoothly. They are elastic, suitable for grinding or sanding, and can be coated or painted. More and more areas of application, especially in mixed construction settings, are seeing the increased use of the combined sealant/adhesive technique for permanent fixing purposes.
The spreading of tension across a larger surface area reduces the strain on individual components, thereby helping to prevent contact corrosion. The quality of the surface finish is not harmed in any way. Titgemeyer’s high-quality PUR sealant and adhesive products are used in all manner of applications, ranging from vehicle body and container construction to ventilation and air conditioning systems, the metalworking and shipbuilding sectors, and even the assembly of conservatories.
