Sikasil 728 NS is a high performance, non-sag. one-component , ultra low modulus elastomeric, neutral cure silicone sealant. Excellent flexibility for dynamic joint movement and extreme temperature conditions.
Sika Sikasil-728 NS is a one-component, non-sag, ultra-low modulus silicone sealant designed for high-movement concrete joints in roads, bridges, stadiums, and parking structures. This neutral cure formula bonds to a wide range of substrates—concrete, steel, glass, and masonry—without the need for primers in many applications. It performs well in cold climates, resists jet fuel and road salts, and stays flexible in extreme temperatures. With a movement capability of +100% / -50%, it's a reliable choice for critical expansion and saw cut joints.
