Emseal Closure

Expandable sealant is used to seal out dust, air, wind-driven snow and moisture through-out metal buildings, especially roofs.  Typical application would be at the ridge, peak cap, hip and ridge, end wall and pitch break.

AST is idea as a filler in expansion/compression joints subject to movement from thermal expansion and contraction, as as a gasket in mechanically fastened, non-moving applications such as lap seams.  AST is suitable for use against metal, plastic, wood, concrete, and other materials common in metal building structures.

 

Material Specifications

  • Emseal Closure – 1″ x 1″ x 19.68′ expanded
  • Will not dry out and become hard and brittle
  • UV-stable
  • Highly resistant to bugs and vermin
  • Will not extrude from between joints like caulk or butyl tapes
  • Conforms to contours and fills gaps
  • Maintains a seal during thermal expansion and contraction of building panels
  • Excellent compressability and recovery (minimal compression sets)
  • Good thermal and sound insulator
  • No shrinkage or blow-out due to closed-cell breakage
  • Supplied with self-advehesive on one side.  After removal of packaging, material begins gradual expansion – more slowly in cold weather than in hot
