Description

Air-Bloc ® LF is a moisture cure single-component elastomeric liquid-applied flashing using a highly advanced Silyl-Terminated Polyether (STPE) polymer. It is designed to cure through reaction with airborne moisture to provide a heavy-duty seamless rubber- like impervious membrane with excellent weathering and water resistance.

Features

 Fast curing, high solids and single component  Low VOC, low odor  Excellent compatibility with all Henry ®  Easy to install, no special equipment required

air barriers and components, including rubberized asphalt

Usage

Air-Bloc  LF is designed for use as a concealed air barrier flashing to protect against air, water and moisture penetration around windows and doors for commercial and residential construction.

Application

Surface Prep: Substrates should be dry and clean of oil, dust, excess mortar and sharp protrusions, standing water and frost. Concrete surfaces must be cured a minimum of 14 days. Damp concrete is acceptable but must not be wet. Acceptable substrates are precast concrete, cast-in-place concrete, concrete block, primed steel, aluminum mill finish, anodized aluminum, galvanized metal, exterior-grade gypsum board, OSB and plywood. Strike masonry joints flush. Concrete surfaces must be smooth and without large voids, spalled areas or sharp protrusions. Where curing compounds are used, they must be clear resin based, without oil, wax
