Hot Sealing Compound

TT Sealing Compound is bitumen based hot applied sealing compound for concrete joints and has the ability to withstand extension without cracking. It has low susceptibility to flow during hot weather conditions. It is durable and plastic and at the same time offer resistance to ingress of solid foreign matter.

1. GRADE A: It is ideal hot pour sealing compound specially rubberized to withstand cracking. Besides having good adhesion to concrete it is also durable and is not affected by temperature changes. It has a working temperature of 175ºC to 185ºC and a density of 1.05 gm

2. GRADE B: It is unaffected by petrol spillage especially jet fuel. It is therefore recommended to use in garages, filling stations etc. It has a working temperature of 155ºC to 165ºC and a density of 1200 kg/cub/m

Storage Conditions
Store under cover out of direct sunlight and protect from extremes of temperature. In tropical climates the product must be stored in an airconditioned environment. Failure to comply with the recommended storage conditions may result in premature deterioration of the product or packaging.

Remove dust, flakes, oil, grease or other foreign particles by jet or dry air and clean the surface to make it smooth before applying TT Sealing Compound.
Spray or brush, by TT Bitumen Primer evenly throughout the joints and allow it to dry completely. 􀈁􀈃 hours is enough to dry the primer during normal weather condition.
Cover the joint by plastic film if rain is expected after primer application.
Cut Sealing TT Compound drum and heat it to 170 - 190 c while slowly stirring the material for uniformity. A 20 kg drum will take 2-3 hrs. at 190 c to 200 for complete melting using hand stirrer. Do not overheat as this may cause frothing. If for any reason bubble appears during melting, keep the temperature around 180C for a longer time with slow manual stirring till the bubble disappears.
Upon primer drying completely, pour molten TT Sealing Compound from one side of the joint allowing it to travel through the joint as much aspracticable. While pouring, ensure that temperature of material is in the range of 180 - 200C.
During the pouring process, to avoid spillage, place wooden boards on both sides of joint and pour from can with extended spout.
