Spillage and environmental:

Non-toxic.

Mobility: Store in a cool, well-ventilated area. Keep the container tightly closed.

Mapesil AC is an advanced acetic-crosslinking silicone sealant specifically engineered for effectively sealing various surfaces, including glass, ceramics, and anodised aluminium. For broader applications, it can also be utilised on substrates such as concrete, wood, metal, painted surfaces, plastic, and rubber, following the application of a bonding enhancer to ensure optimal adhesion.

This versatile sealant is particularly suited for the following applications:

  • Sealing expansion joints that accommodate up to ± 25% movement relative to their original size, compliant with the relevant standards (EN 15651).
  • Creating perfectly elastic gaskets between various structural and mechanical elements across diverse industries, including construction, mechanical engineering, shipbuilding, automotive manufacturing, and more.
  • Sealing joints within wall and floor coverings made from ceramic and cement, provided they are not exposed to heavy wear and tear.
  • Form watertight seals between sinks or sanitary fixtures and ceramic tiles in kitchens, bathrooms, and showers. Available in a range of colors that coordinate with Mapei's colored grout lines for aesthetic harmony.
  • Sealing expansion joints in swimming pools, ensuring protection against water ingress and structural movement.
  • Facilitating the assembly of intricate designs in glass tiles and artistic stained glass windows, where functionality and visuals are paramount.
  • Sealing various glass installations such as door and window frames, portholes, and windows, providing an airtight and watertight barrier.
  • Sealing air ducts and water pipes, ensuring efficiency and preventing leaks in HVAC and plumbing systems.
  • Sealing tanks, service pipelines, and boilers are critical for durability and resistance to environmental conditions.
  • Addressing joints subjected to high chemical exposure and thermal stress ensures longevity and reliability even in harsh conditions.
  • Sealing materials with different coefficients of thermal expansion, accommodating movement without compromising the integrity of the seal.

Mapesil AC presents a reliable solution for a wide range of sealing needs, delivering performance and durability in residential and industrial applications.
