Universal silicone sealant is useful for creating reliable watertight joints. This is necessary when performing repair work, in construction and decoration. Sealing is especially important in the bathroom, kitchen and toilet - where surfaces often come into contact with water (including in the form of steam and condensate). The joints must be particularly well protected from moisture.
Properties of construction silicone
The softness and plasticity of the polymer from which the sealant is made allows this material to be used to strengthen moving joints. High-quality silicone does not break down under the influence of mechanical and temperature fluctuations.
The high degree of adhesion to various materials makes sealants universal; they can be used to seal:
- plastic;
- ceramic;
- glass;
- concrete;
- plastic;
- wooden joints.
Silicone sealant in plumbing
Resistant to ultraviolet light, household detergents, mold, fungi and temperature changes, the sealant is successfully used to fill joints and eliminate leaks during plumbing work. Tile joints, water pipe connections and any mirror elements that are attached to the bathroom door - all this is the area of application of silicone sealant.
