Nitoseal PU40 Product Description
Nitoseal PU40 can be used for joints ranging from 5 to 35 mm in width. To minimize stress on the joint sealant, all movement joints should be designed with an appropriate width-to-depth ratio of 2:1, with a minimum depth of 5 mm for non-porous surfaces and 10 mm for porous surfaces. For joints wider than 35 mm, please contact your local Fosroc Technical Services Department.
Applications (Uses)
Nitoseal PU40 is a joint sealant suitable for sealing joints in concrete, brickwork, blockwork, precast panels, stone cladding, joints around door and window frames, and non-trafficked floor joints.
