Flex Crete™ Crack Sealer
What is Flex Crete Crack Sealer?
Flex Crete is a cold pour, ready to use, gray elastomeric crack sealer that IS NOT silicon or polyurethane based. Easy to use with water cleanup. It provides a lasting and flexible seal with the ease of installation of self-leveling pourable materials. Flex Crete™ can be used in new highway construction or as a remedial or repair sealant in old construction. In new construction, it provides a long-lasting seal that will prolong the life of the pavement and prevent water and noncompressibles from entering into the joint and damaging the pavement and foundation.
For use in repair or remedial applications where other joint sealing materials have failed because of excessive movement or poor weatherability. Flex Crete™ Sealant can be used to seal irregularly shaped and/or spalled joints. It offers outstanding weathering resistance, remains flexible down to temperatures lower than -20°F (-29°C), is jet-blast resistant and will maintain field serviceability when exposed to intermittent fuel and oil spills. It bonds strongly to concrete joints or asphalt without the use of a primer.
Flex Crete™ can be used in all typical concrete joint/seam or crack applications in most climates and is compatible with asphalt pavement. Flex Crete™ is easily applied to concrete joints using manual methods or bulk dispensing system units such as those available from manufacturers including Pyles/Graco and Johnstone and/or an inexpensive double-diaphragm pump with a “surge bottle” like Shot™ Pump. The leveling characteristics insure that the required joint wetting for development of appropriate adhesion occurs during
application, no tooling is required
