    Product Specification

    Roadseal
    High performance, low modulus, high joint movement accommodation, one component
    silicone rubber joint sealant

    *1.00
    Joint Sealant

    1.01
    Where so indicated on the drawings, joints are to be sealed using a low modulus, high joint
    movement accommodation, one component, silicone rubber joint sealant. All joints must be
    prepared, and primed if required, in accordance with the manufacturer’s current technical data
    sheet.

    1.02
    Preparation
    The joint surfaces must be thoroughly dry and clean. Remove all laitance, curing compounds,
    form release agents, loose materials and any contaminating foreign matter from joint faces.

    In moving joints, the sealant must not be allowed to bond to the back face of the joint. Prevention
    of 3 sided adhesion, is achieved by installing either a polyethylene bond breaker tape, or placing
    / pressure fitting a closed cell, polyethylene backing rod or filler board into the joint to support the
    internal back of the sealant.

    New concrete must be allowed to cure for a minimum of 14 days before sealant installation.

    All materials used in conjunction with the new sealant system, shall be approved by the sealant
    manufacturer.
