Almond, Aluminum, Black, Bronze, Buff, Gray, Dark Bronze, Ivory, Limestone, Redwood Tan, Beige, Stone, White, Product description Vulkem® 116 is a one-part, moisture-curing, gun-grade polyurethane sealant. It is durable, flexible, and offers excellent performance in dynamic joints. Features and benefits Vulkem 116 has demonstrated superior primerless adhesion to porous substrates for 30 years, and is the choice for sealing expansion joints in commercial construction applications. Vulkem 116 is also suitable for certain water immersion applications and is rated for 25% movement capability. The cure of the sealant can be accelerated with the addition of the Vulkem Catalyst 45/116. Uses Vulkem 116 is an excellent general-purpose sealant designed for use on poured and precast concrete, masonry work, window and door perimeters, and similar types of construction joints. It is designed for use on exterior applications but can be used on interior applications with proper ventilation. Colors Almond, Aluminum, Black, Bronze, Buff, Gray, Dark Bronze, Ivory, Limestone, Redwood Tan, Beige, Stone, White, Packaging 10.1 oz. (300ml) cartridges Coverage rates 308 linear feet of joint per gallon for a 1/4” X 1/4” joint. Applicable standards Vulkem 116 meets or exceeds the requirements of the following specifications: • ASTM C 920 Type S, Grade NS, Class 25, Use T, NT, M, A, I class II, and O • U.S. Federal Specification TT-S-00230C, Class A, Type II • CAN/CGSB-19.13-M87 • USDA regulation for indirect food contact • Canadian Food Inspection Agency • City of Los Angeles (COLA) approval standards Joint design Vulkem 116 may be used in any vertical or horizontal joint designed in accordance with accepted architectural/engineering practices. Joint width should be 4 times anticipated movement, but not less than 1/4” (6.4mm). Joint backing Closed cell or reticulated polyethylene backer rod is recommended as joint backing to control sealant depth and to ensure intimate contact of sealant with joint walls when tooling. Where depth of joint will prevent the use of backer rod, an adhesive backed polyethylene tape (bond breaker tape) should be used to prevent three-sided adhesion. All backing should be dry at time of sealant application. Page 1 of 2 TYPICAL PHYSICAL PROPERTIES (Results of recent testing at 72?F (22?C) after 21 days cure time.)

EXPANSION JOINTS - The minimum width and depth of any sealant application should be 1/4” by 1/4” (6mm by 6mm). The depth (D) of sealant may be equal to the width (W) of joints that are less than 1/2” wide. For joints ranging from 1/2” to 1” (13mm to 25mm) wide, the sealant depth should be approximately one-half of the joint width. The maximum depth (D) of any sealant application should be 1/2” (13mm). For joints that are wider than 1” (25 mm) contact Tremco’s Technical Service Department, or your local Tremco field representative. WINDOW PERIMETERS – For fillet beads, or angle beads around windows and doors, the sealant should exhibit a minimum surface contact area (C) of 1/4” onto each substrate. Surface preparations Surfaces must be sound, clean, and dry. All release agents, existing waterproofing, dust, loose mortar, laitance, paints, or other finishes must be removed. This can be accomplished with a thorough wire brushing, grinding, sandblasting, or solvent washing, depending on the contamination. Tremco recommends that surface temperatures be 40?F (5?C) or above at the time the sealant is applied. If sealant must be applied in temperatures below 40?F, please refer to the Tremco Guide for Applying Sealants. Priming Where deemed necessary, use Vulkem Primer #171 for porous substrates and TREMprime Non-Porous Primer for metals and plastics. Vulkem 116 typically adheres to common construction substrates without primers; however, Tremco always recommends that mock-up or field adhesion test be performed on the actual materials being used on the job to verify the need for a primer. The field adhesion test can be found in appendixes X1 of ASTM C 1193, Standard Guide for Use of Joint Sealants. Application Vulkem 116 is easy to apply with conventional caulking equipment. Ensure that the backer rod is friction fitted properly and any primers have been applied. Fill the joint completely with a proper width-to-depth ratio and tool to insure intimate contact of sealant with joint walls. Dry tooling is always preferred, although xylene can be used in limited amounts to slick the spatula if needed. For a cleaner finish, mask the sides of the joint with tape prior to filling. Cure time Vulkem 116 generally cures at a rate of 1/16” per day at 75°F (24°C) and 50% relative humidity. It will skin in 5 hours and be tack free in 30 hours. The cure time will increase as temperatures and/or humidity decrease. A good rule of thumb is one additional day for every 10°F decrease in temperature. Clean up Excess sealant and smears adjacent to the joint interface can be carefully removed with xylene or mineral spirits before the sealant cures. Any utensils used for tooling can also be cleaned with xylene or mineral spirits. Limitations • Do not apply Vulkem 116 over damp or contaminated surfaces. • Always utilize the sealant’s MSDS found on our website for information on proper ventilation, Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and other health concerns.
