DELSEAL 3-15
High Performance Sealant
Profile
DELSEAL 3-15 is a high performance water
resistant low shrinkage, durable single
component acrylic sealant for sealing various
types of joints, where it forms tough highly
durable permanently flexible plasto elastic
seal. DELSEAL 3-15 has excellent weather
and UV resistance and can be used for indoor
{and outdoor applications.
Usage
DELSEAL 3-15 is ideal for application for
sealing of joints in concrete, cement mortars,
‘asbestos, metal, ceramics, wood, stones and
‘construction expansion joints, aluminium
sheets, roof walls in roofing systems as well
‘as joints in windows and doors. Delseal 3-15
‘also can be used for sealing of joints in roof
tiles and skirting of airconditioning and in
ducting systems. In all applications, the width
of the joints must not exceed 30 mm.
DELSEAL 3-15 is also ideal for application on
galvanized steel, aluminium and mild stee!
ducts where it quickly forms a strong bond
and sealing.

sealant and vice versa.
Installation Procedure
General
DELSEAL 3-15 can be applied by a brush,
caulking gun, glove, trowel or power
extrusion,
‘Surface Preparation
All surfaces to be applied must be
clean, dry and free from dust dirt, cil, grease
and any other contaminants.Application
For Concrete
substrates :
and — Cementitious
Prime the surface with DELSEAL 3-15 primer
by diluting DELSEAL 3-15 with water in the
ratio of 1:2 and allow to dry completely. Then
apply DELSEAL 3-15 by suitable application
‘method in the required level.
Duct Sealing Applications :
Apply by brush or gun DELSEAL 3-15
continuously in to the joints, adjoining area
and all areas of the duct system where air
leakage is expected. On spiral ducts system
apply a coat of DELSEAL 3-15 to the male end
of coupling prior to assemble the straight run
of spiral duct over it and coat over the joints
to ensure complete seal. Flanges and screw
holes also may be Sealed in DELSEAL 3-15.
Jackets and Other Sealings
DELSEAL 3-15 should be dried for minimum
24 hours at temperature 25°C or more prior to
pressure testing. When applied between two
impermeable surfaces, drying time may be
extended.
‘Actual coverage may vary, depend on the
type, nature and evenness of the surface and
the application method.
Outdoor horizontal surfaces, must be always
drained and dried completely, prior to the
application of DELSEAL 3-15. For horizontal
duct surfaces, a minimum pitch of 2 cm per
meter ('% inch per feet) is required.
Always test foils and paper facing for adhesion
requirements, prior to application. Never
apply in open areas, if rain imminent.
Cleaning
lean brush and equipments with fresh water
when wet. Dried sealant may be removed with
proprietary cleaning solvents,
Health and Safety
Generally safe, non toxic and non flammable
in wet condition. However, avoid prolonged
skin contact. Use of gloves is advisable. If
eyes are affected with DELSEAL 3-15, rinse
with amount of clean fresh water. If ingested,
seek medical attention immediately.
Ventilation to the working area is desirable.
