MAXFLEX® 600
NEUTRAL RETICULATION SILICONE

Description

MAXFLEX 600 is a single component elastomeric sealant of neutral reticulation silicone. It has a fungicidal treatment and is supplied in several colours.

Uses

- Expansion joints between light or structural prefabricated elements and in traditional masonry.
- Waterproof joints between façade elements, curtain walls, frameworks, etc.

Application

The surface must be firm and sound, dry, clean and free from grease, dust, etc.
It is advisable to use a closed cell polyethylene foam backing rod such as MAXCEL, of a diameter 24% greater than the width of the joint. MAXFLEX 600 has very good adhesion on most construction materials such as concrete, glass, aluminium, PVC, wood, etc., without the need for a primer. In order to avoid staining the edges of the joints and to provide a better finish, it is adviseable to place masking tape on either side of the joint. In thin joints, MAXFLEX 600 should be applied in a single action. For wide joints use three passes, the first two against the edges of the joint and the third, filling in the centre.
During the application, press against the edges of the joint and against the bottom, to prevent air bubbles. To smooth over the surface soapy water can be used. The application ends by removing the masking tape.
MAXFLEX 600 can be cleaned before it cures using white spirit. Once polymerised it can only be removed by mechanical means.
