Sika 291 multipurpose sealant
DESCRIPTION
Sikaflex 291 is a special one-component Polyurethane sealant, specifically designed for applications in the shipbuilding industry. This sealant cures upon exposure to atmospheric moisture, forming an elastic and durable elastomer. The product meets the standards of the International Maritime Organization and is manufactured under the ISO 9001/14001 quality assurance system.
APPLICATIONS
Sikaflex 291 has diverse applications and is suitable for shipbuilding technology. It is used to create elastic, vibration-damping joints and to seal internal and external seams. The product bonds well with materials commonly used in the shipbuilding industry such as wood, metals, various metal primers and topcoats (two-component), ceramic materials, and plastics. However, Sikaflex 291 should not be used with brittle materials such as glass, plexiglass, and polycarbonate. After curing, the product can be sanded to achieve the desired finished surface.
ADVANTAGES
Sikaflex 291 has many notable advantages:
One-component: Easy to use without needing to combine multiple components.
Elastic: Creates an elastic elastomer layer, helping to resist breakage and vibration.
Non-aging and weather-resistant: Designed to withstand outdoor environments and not age over time.
Good adhesion to most substrates: The product bonds strongly with many common materials in the shipbuilding industry.
Paintable: Can be painted after the product has cured, helping to achieve a better finished surface.
Non-conductive: Safe for applications requiring electrical insulation.
Low odor: Reduces impact on the environment and users.

APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS
Surface preparation:

Ensure the surface is clean, dry, free of grease and dust.
Adhesion can be improved by cleaning the surface with Sika Cleaner and appropriate Sika Primer.
Application:
Puncture the protective membrane of the sealant tube.
Cut the nozzle tip according to the joint width and apply the sealant with a manual or pneumatic gun, avoiding air entrapment.
Use the entire tube shortly after opening.
Do not apply at temperatures below 5°C or above 40°C.
Adjustment and finishing:
Adjust and finish before the sealant skins over, using Sika Tooling Agent N.
The compatibility of other finishing agents should be tested.
Cleaning and storage:
Uncured SikaFlex 291 can be cleaned with Sika Remover 208 or an appropriate solvent.
Once cured, use mechanical means for cleaning.
Wash hands and skin with Sika Handclear Towel or appropriate industrial hand cleaner.
Painting:
SikaFlex 291 can be painted after surface curing.
Test the compatibility of the paint material before use.
Do not bake-paint over Sikaflex 291 when it is not fully cured.
