Product catalog summary
Product Description: GS300 is a gun grade, acetoxy cure, low modulus glazing silicone designed for flexible and durable weather-tight seals in classical glass and glazing applications. Available in translucent, white, aluminium, grey, and black, it is packaged in 310 ml cartridges.
Environmental Considerations: GS300 provides an airtight seal conforming to the Building Regulations for England and Wales.
Technical Information: The silicone has a specific gravity of 1.02, a Shore A hardness of 20, and a movement capability of 25%. It cures at a rate of 2-3 mm per day at 23°C and 50% RH, with a service temperature range from -40°C to +180°C.
Application Guidelines: Suitable for temperatures between +5°C and +40°C, GS300 should be applied using a cartridge gun. Joint design should follow BS 6093 standards, with a width to depth ratio of 2:1. Surfaces must be clean and dry before application.
Coverage: Coverage varies with joint dimensions, e.g., a 6x6 mm joint provides 8.6 linear meters per cartridge.
Cleaning and Safety: Excess sealant should be removed immediately with AT200 High Strength Cleaner. Cured sealant requires mechanical removal. Safety data sheets must be reviewed before use.
Limitations: Not recommended for use with certain materials like concrete, marble, or in structural glazing applications. Avoid use in areas with potential for acetic acid reaction or where abrasion is likely.
Technical Support and Warranty: tremco illbruck offers technical support and guarantees product replacement if defects are found when used as recommended.
