KANKOL PU is a single component, gun-grade polyurethane sealant developed for building expansion joints where high elasticity is required. It has excellent adhesion without primers on most surfaces, is non-sagging, elastic, weather resistant, and can accommodate joint movements of up to 25%. The sealant cures bubble-free, has low modulus, and remains elastic from -40C to 80C. It is supplied in 600ml foil packs for sealing joints in precast concrete, curtain walls, windows, and other building elements.

KANKOL PU is an elastic, single component, gun-grade, moisture curing polyurethane
sealant specifically developed to be used in building facade expansion joints where high elasticity is required. The product is suitable for sealing joints in pre-cast elements, external walling, curtain walling and cladding, panel walls, window and door perimeter sealing etc.
KANKOL PU Benefits
One part, reduces the posibility of applicator error and possible joint failure Excellent thixotropy - non-sag Elastic low modulus Pitch-free - over paintable Movement capability +/- 25% Bubble-free curing, no weak areas for air bubbles to develop. Excellent resistance to weathering (DIN 14231) Very good adhesion to most construction materials especially concrete without the need of primer Permanently elastic over a wide range of temperatures Conforms to ISO 11600 F 25 LM and BS 6920 for contact with potable water
KANKOL PU Technical Data
Chemical Basis : Polyurethane Cure Mechanism Moisture curing Specific Weight 1.42 +/- 0.02gr/cc Tack free time at 23C and 50% r.h. 120 minutes Curing at 23C and 50% r.h. 2,5 mm/24h Hardness Shore A (DIN 53505) 20-25 Elastic modulus at 100% (DIN 52455) 0,5 N/mm Tensile strength (DIN 53504) 1,5 N/mm Elongation at break (DIN 53504) 600% Elastic recovery (DIN 52458) 80% Admissible joint movement +/-25% Application Temperature +5C - +35C Temperature Resistance -40C - +80C Surface preparation: Joint surfaces must be dry, clean and free of all contamination. Glass, metal and other non-porous surfaces must be free of any coatings and wiped clean with solvent. Precast panels using form-release agents other than polyethylene film must be sandblasted or mechanically abraded and dust free.
Priming: KANKOL PU has excellent adhesion properties even without the use of primer on most common building materials. However, natural stone, paints, coatings and other treatments of surfaces may present a difficult surface to which to adhere. Due to the number of unpredictable natures of these substrates, a preliminary test is recommended.
PU Porous Primer may be required for porous surfaces.
Application: Recommended application temperatures: 5 - 35C. For easier use or cold weather application we recommend the material is stored at approximately 25C prior to use. In order to guarantee free movement of sealant in joints, it is imperative that the sealant does not adhere to the bottom of the joint, therefore joint backer rod should be used at the proper depth. Apply appropriate primer to joint sides and observe waiting time to avoid any air bubbles which may arise from the solvent heating under un-cured sealant. Firmly extrude sealant into the joint making sure that it is in full contact with the sides of the joint and with the backing rod at the bottom. Keep the nozzle in the sealant, continue on with a steady flow of sealant preceeding the nozzle to avoid air entrapment. Avoid overlapping of sealant to eliminate entrapment of air.Masking tape should be used where sharp exact joint lines or exceptionally neat lines are required. Remove the tape whilst the sealant is still soft.
Joint Width to Depth Ratio Joint Depth: Minimum 6mm Joint Depth Width:Depth Ratio = 2:1,(considering min depth requirements) For joints over 50mm width, ask for technical assistance
Notes: Do not apply in presence of curing silicones Do not apply when moisture-vapour-transmission condition exists from the substrate as this can cause bubbling of the sealant Avoid air entrapment when applying
