Polyurethane Sealants - Sikaflex®-2c NS EZ Mix

Two-component, non-sag, polyurethane elastomeric sealant

Sikaflex®-2c NS EZ Mix is a 2-component, premium-grade, polyurethane-based, elastomeric sealant. It is principally a chemical cure in a non-sag consistency. Meets ASTM C 920, Type M, Grade NS, Class 25, use T, NT, M, G, A, O, I and Federal specification TT-S-00227E, Type II, Class A. Meets Canada Standard CAN/CGSB 19.24 - M90.

• Capable of +50 % joint movement.
• Chemical cure allows the sealant to be placed in joints exceeding ½ in. in depth.
• High elasticity with a tough, durable, flexible consistency.
• Exceptional cut and tear resistance.
• Exceptional adhesion to most substrates without priming.
• Available in 35 architectural colors.
• Color uniformity assured via Color-pak system.
• Available in pre-pigmented Limestone Gray (no Color-pak needed).
• Non-sag even in wide joints.
• Certified to the NSF/ANSI Standard 61 for potable water.
• Easy to mix.
• Paintable with water-, oil-, and rubber-base paints.
• Jet fuel resistant.
• Cold weather booster for initial tack (see reverse side for data).
• Shore A hardness can be increased by using “TG” additive. See Sikaflex-2c NS TG data sheet for specific details.

Usage

• Intended for use in all properly designed working joints with a minimum depth of ¼ inch.
• Ideal for horizontal, vertical, and overhead applications.
• Placeable at temperatures as low as 40 °F.
• Adheres to most substrates commonly found in construction.
• An effective sealant for use in Exterior Insulation Finish Systems (EIFS).
• Submerged environments, such as canal and reservoir joints.

Application Steps

Priming is typically not necessary. Most substrates only require priming if sealant will be subjected to water immersion after cure. Testing should be done, however, on questionable substrates, to determine if priming is needed. Consult Technical Service or Sikaflex Primer Technical Data Sheet for additional information on priming. Note: Most Exterior Insulation Finish Systems (EIFS) manufacturers recommend the use of a primer. When EIFS manufacturer specifies a primer or if on-site bond testing indicates a primer is necessary, Sikaflex 429 primer is recommended. On-site adhesion testing is recommended with final system prior to the start of a job.

Pour entire contents of Component ‘B’ into pail of Component ‘A’. Add entire contents of Color-pak into pail and mix with a low-speed drill (400-600 rpm) and Sikaflex paddle.* Mix for 3-5 minutes to achieve a uniform color and consistency. Scrape down sides of pail periodically. Avoid entrapment of air during mixing. When mixing in cold weather (<50 °F), do not force the mixing paddle to the bottom of the pail. After adding Component ‘B’ and Color-pak into Component ‘A’, mix the top 1/2 to 3/4 of the pail during the first minute of mixing. After scraping down the sides of the pail, mix again for another minute. The paddle should reach the bottom of the pail between the first and second minute of mixing. Scrape down the sides of the pail a second time and then mix for an additional 2-3 minutes until the sealant is well blended. Color-pak must be used with tint base. For pre-pigmented Limestone base, just mix with low speed drill and Sikaflex paddle (no Color-pak needed).
