Sika Greenstreak Leakmaster LV-Z 320ml Cartridge 529563

Leakmaster LV-Z is a single component water-swelling sealant with excellent and unique properties. Leakmaster may be applied in locations where conventional solid sealants cannot be easily applied. The rubber-like elasticity of the material and expansion characteristics create an effective watertight seal.

Easy application - general-use caulking guns
Better physical properties than those of conventional sealant.
Swells approximately 2 times in volume

Professional Application Guide

Sika Greenstreak Leakmaster LV-Z is a one-component, moisture-cure water-swelling sealant specially formulated for challenging waterproofing applications. Ideal for irregular joints, rough surfaces, and difficult penetrations where conventional sealants cannot be easily applied.

After curing, Leakmaster LV-Z exhibits excellent physical properties with rubber-like elasticity. The unique water-swelling mechanism expands approximately 2 times in volume when exposed to water, creating an effective watertight seal without losing flexibility.

Pro Tip from Our Technical Team

For comprehensive concrete joint waterproofing systems, consider pairing Leakmaster LV-Z with Sika Greenstreak Hydrotite waterstops for complete below-grade protection in high-hydrostatic pressure applications.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does Leakmaster LV-Z expand when exposed to water?

Leakmaster LV-Z expands approximately 2 times its original volume (85-200%) when exposed to water, creating an effective compression seal.

Can this be applied to wet surfaces?

No, surfaces must be dry during application. The product is moisture-cure, meaning it cures in the presence of humidity but requires dry application conditions.

What makes this different from conventional sealants?

Unlike conventional sealants, Leakmaster LV-Z can be applied to irregular shapes and rough surfaces, provides superior physical properties after curing, and actively swells to create better sealing when exposed to water.
