Product selection and use guide
SHC Joint Sealants covers mastic, joint sealant, vapour-stop and adhesive types serving different functions within insulation systems.
How to choose
Select the code for its task: sealing joints, forming a vapour stop or bonding materials. Match substrate, operating conditions and curing method.
Applications to consider
Consider insulation joints or vapour-control details specifically supported by the exact type data.
Use limitations
Mastic is not a universal replacement for sealants and adhesives. Do not copy temperature limits or mixing methods between codes; two-component products need specific preparation instructions.
Pre-order checklist
- Specify type code, detail function, mating materials and joint dimensions.
- Request consumption data, mixing method where relevant, primer and safety data sheets.
Frequently asked questions
Can every SHC type replace another?
No. Primary mastic, joint sealant, vapour stop and adhesive have distinct functions requiring specific selection.
Is a vapour stop the same as insulation?
No. Vapour-control details supplement insulation and must connect to adjacent layers according to the design.
How is mastic consumption determined?
Use detail area or volume, application thickness and consumption data for the selected code.
