Hybrid LM Torggler sealant with low modulus of elasticity,
based on hybrid polymers, for the creation of over-paintable expansion joints on façades and in the field of window frames.
Hybrid LM Torggler sealant is sold online in
290 ml pack.
Hybrid LM Torggler is a very interesting hybrid sealant because it has the following characteristics:
- Good resistance to UV rays;
- Low elastic modulus;
- Paintable;
- Use indoors and outdoors, even on damp substrates;
- Suitable for certified installation of doors and windows according to UNI 11673-1.
Hybrid LM Torggler sealant: low modulus of elasticity for facade and window joints
- Hybrid LM is a sealant based on hybrid polymers with a low modulus of elasticity , with good resistance to UV rays and atmospheric agents, ideal for use in windows and doors and in prefabrication.
- Thanks to the neutral cross-linking, it does not develop unpleasant odors during application, it does not release acid or basic substances that can corrode the metal supports and it does not damage the paints.
- It has excellent adhesion to both porous (masonry, concrete, plaster, wood) and non-porous (metal, plastic, glass, glazed and porcelain surfaces), even if they are wet as long as they are clean and consistent.
- After hardening it can be painted over : in any case it is recommended to carry out preliminary tests with the chosen paints.
Hybrid LM is classified according to UNI EN 15651-1 as a non-structural sealant for facades F-EXT / INT-CC. It complies with UNI 11673-1, “Installation of windows and doors - Part 1: requirements and design verification criteria”.
Fields of use sealant Hybrid LM Torggler
The Hybrid LM Torggler sealant is ideal for
sealing the connection joints between the window frame and masonry (brick, concrete, plaster), as well as for the creation of expansion joints, horizontal and vertical, as part of the installation of prefabricated concrete panels. Also suitable for marble or natural stone supports.
Its characteristics are such as to allow the seals to
absorb the movements transmitted to the building by atmospheric, vibrational and mechanical stresses.
The Hybrid LM hybrid sealant
elastically connects the sides of the joint , cushioning, without detachment, the movement of the neighboring building elements, originating from differential thermo-hygrometric dilations or settlements. It therefore guarantees a perfect seal over time to water and air, reducing heat loss. Paintability after hardening ensures a homogeneous and uninterrupted final appearance to the facades.
Joint dimensions
- Minimum width = 6 mm;
- For widths up to 10 mm the depth must be equal to the width of the joint and in any case not less than 6 mm;
- For widths from 10 to 20 mm the depth must be at least 10 mm;
- For widths over 20 mm the depth must be at least half the width.
Warnings Hybrid LM Torggler sealant
Hybrid LM is not suitable for structural bonding.
Cleaning of tools
Cleaning tools in the plastic state of the sealant with solvents; after hardening only mechanically.
Instructions for laying with Hybrid LM Torggler sealant
- The sides of the joint must be clean, degreased and consistent. In deep expansion joints, insert a buffer bead of suitable diameter, before sealing;
- Stretch an adhesive tape along the sides of the joint;
- Insert the cartridge into the special gun, open it, screw the nozzle and cut the tip in order to obtain a sufficient opening;
- Inject the sealant in abundance;
- Smooth with a spatula moistened with Smooth within 5 minutes of application, exerting a certain pressure in order to eliminate air gaps;
- Remove the adhesive tape immediately after smoothing.
Torggler hybrid sealant storage
Hybrid LM must be stored in a dry and cool environment. In these conditions the storage stability is at least 12 months. Not completely consumed cartridges can be stored for about 3 months if tightly closed.
