Building Sealant
Dow Corning® 795 Silicone Building Sealant is a one-part, neutral-cure, architectural-grade sealant that easily extrudes in any weather and cures quickly at room temperature. This cold-applied, non-sagging silicone material cures to a medium-modulus silicone rubber upon exposure to atmospheric moisture. The cured sealant is durable and flexible enough to accommodate ±50 percent movement of original joint dimension when installed in a properly designed weather seal joint. In a properly designed structurally glazed joint, the sealant is strong enough to support glass and other panel materials under high wind loads.
- Suitable for most new construction and remedial sealing applications.
- Versatile high performance structural glazing and weather sealing from a single product.
