SikaShield S-60 is a proprietary composite, uniquely designed to provide high strength, low temperature adhesion and high temperature stability in a superior waterproofing membrane. Ideal for waterproofing below grade concrete, masonry structures, and wood surfaces where in-service temperatures will not exceed 130°F.
SikaShield S-60 is a premium, self-adhering waterproofing membrane engineered for below-grade and between-slab applications. Its proprietary composite design ensures high strength, low-temperature adhesion, and superior hydrostatic resistance. The cross-laminated film provides excellent stability and resistance to punctures and tearing, offering long-lasting protection for concrete and masonry structures. SikaShield S-60 is a cold-applied system that requires no heat for installation, making it an efficient and reliable choice for waterproofing foundations, split slab construction, and earth-sheltered structures.
