MSeal GG 470 | MCT CHEMICALS | MASTER BUILDER SOLUTIONS

Usage:

MSeal GG 470 is a high-performance, industrial-grade sealant designed specifically for sealing gaps, joints, and seams in a wide range of applications, including automotive, construction, and industrial sectors. It is particularly effective in environments that require resistance to water, chemicals, and extreme temperatures. MSeal GG 470 is commonly used for sealing components in machinery, HVAC systems, as well as in applications requiring vibration resistance.

Characteristics / Advantages:

• High Durability: MSeal GG 470 is designed for long-term performance in harsh environments, providing excellent sealing under high-stress conditions.
• Chemical Resistance: The product offers strong resistance to a variety of chemicals, oils, and solvents, making it ideal for industrial and automotive applications.
• Temperature Resistance: MSeal GG 470 can withstand extreme temperatures, typically ranging from -40°C to 150°C, without losing its sealing properties.
• Elasticity and Flexibility: It retains its flexibility after curing, accommodating joint movement and temperature fluctuations without cracking or losing its sealing ability.
• Waterproofing: The sealant creates a highly effective waterproof barrier, preventing water ingress in critical joints and seams.
• Vibration Resistance: Ideal for applications where parts or components are subjected to vibration, MSeal GG 470 remains intact and effective over time.
• Excellent Adhesion: It adheres strongly to a wide range of materials, including metals, plastics, ceramics, and concrete, with no need for primers in many cases.
• Non-Corrosive: The product is designed to be safe on sensitive materials, particularly metals, and will not cause corrosion or damage during application.
• Easy Application: MSeal GG 470 is easy to apply with standard caulking equipment, making it convenient for both small and large-scale projects.

Approvals / Standards:

• ISO 9001 Certified: MSeal GG 470 is manufactured under rigorous quality management systems, ensuring consistently high product performance.
• RoHS Compliant: It meets the Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) directive, ensuring that the product does not contain harmful substances.
• FDA Compliant (for certain applications): MSeal GG 470 is compliant with the FDA regulations for applications in food-grade environments, ensuring safety for indirect food contact in select uses.
• CE Marked: The product complies with European Union safety, health, and environmental protection standards.
• ASTM Compliant: Meets relevant ASTM standards for sealants, ensuring reliability and performance in industrial sealing applications.

Product Information:

• Form: Paste
• Color: Typically available in gray, black, and white (custom colors may be available upon request)
• Packaging: Available in tubes, cartridges, and bulk containers, depending on application needs and project size
• Shelf Life: Typically 12 months when stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and excessive heat
• Temperature Range: Effective in temperature ranges of -40°C to 150°C, maintaining its properties under both extreme heat and cold
• Curing Time: Cures within 24–48 hours depending on ambient temperature and humidity conditions, with full curing achieved within 72 hours
• Viscosity: Medium to high viscosity, making it ideal for both horizontal and vertical applications without sagging

Application Information:

• Surface Preparation: Surfaces should be clean, dry, and free of oils, dirt, grease, and other contaminants. Smooth or rough surfaces should be prepared to ensure optimal adhesion. For metals, cleaning with a solvent or abrasive may be required to enhance bonding.
• Application Method: MSeal GG 470 is typically applied using a caulking gun for precise control. It can also be applied with a spatula or trowel for larger surface areas.
• Curing Time: While MSeal GG 470 dries to the touch quickly, full cure may take up to 48 hours, depending on thickness and environmental conditions (temperature, humidity).
• Joint Size: Ideal for medium to large joints. For larger gaps, a multi-layer application may be necessary, with each layer allowed to cure before applying the next.
• Cleaning: Uncured sealant can be cleaned off with a solvent (e.g., acetone or xylene). Once cured, mechanical removal is necessary if the sealant needs to be removed.
• Application Temperature: It is best to apply MSeal GG 470 at ambient temperatures between 5°C and 35°C. Avoid applying in extreme weather conditions like rain or freezing temperatures for best results.
• Safety: While MSeal GG 470 is non-toxic once cured, it is always advisable to wear gloves during application to prevent skin contact. Ensure good ventilation during application, especially in confined spaces, to avoid inhalation of fumes during curing.
