Also to filling joints between those substates and other building elements. To use indoor and outdoor application, starting at walls and floor in bathroom, ending with swimming pools.
PCI Silcofug E biggest advantage is its versatility (can be used with many types of finish material, e.g. glass, ceramic, linoleum, stainless steel, etc.) and curing time - 2mm per day. Maximum joint width can be up to 30mm.
For joints 5mm wide and deep, PCI Silcofug E 310ml will cover up to 12.4 running metres. Product is avaiable in many colours.
Features and benefits:

- Resistant to weathering and UV radiation, ideal for outdoor application, temperature resistant up to +165 °C.
- Contains fungicides, prevents fungal decay and mildew growth on the joint sealant.
- Resistant to commercial household cleaners and disinfectants, the joint can be easily cleaned.
- Very low emission, GEV EMICODE EC 1 plus.
Fields of application:
- For indoor and outdoor use.

Preparation of substrate
The joint sides must be dry, structurally sound and free from dust and other contamination. Remove oil stains and grease from non-absorbent substrates with PCI Univerdünner. Fill deep joints with closed-cell polyethylene backer rod. Be careful not to damage the backer rod during the application. A three-sided adhesion of the sealant to the bottom of the joint must be avoided. Backer rods containing bitumen or tar are not allowed to be used.
Application procedure
- All regular hand-operated and airoperated caulking guns (e.g. from Karl Dahm) are suitable for the application of PCI Silcofug E.
- Cut off tip of threaded nipple, screw on nozzle and cut off at an angle corresponding to the joint width. Fit cartridge into the caulking gun.
- Gun PCI Silcofug E into the joint using positive pressure to ensure full contact and adhesion. Tool to a bevel in corner joints.
- Smooth joint sealant before a skin forms using a suitable joint-shaping tool moistened with PCI Glättmittel. A skin forms within a few minutes. Work may be interrupted because new PCI Silcofug E perfectly bonds to a material which has already cured.
Please note:
- Paint does not bond to PCI Silcofug E (cf. IVD leaflet no. 12 - Overpaintability of movement-compensating joint sealants in building construction).
- PCI Silcofug E is not suitable for floor joints subject to heavy mechanical loads.
- Use PCI Carraferm for natural stone.
- The elastic sealing of movement joints and connection joints with PCI Silcofug E is not a substitute for required sealing measures in the substrate structure.
- See the technical data sheet no. 201 - PCI Elastoprimer for details on the application of PCI Elastoprimer 150 and 165.
- We recommend to test adhesion to and compatibility with lacquered and plastic substrates beforehand.
- Staining and bonding problems may occur in contact with mastic asphalt screeds.
- PCI Silcofug E might discolour when using cleaning agents and disinfectants which separate iodine.
- Minor colour variations are possible, it is therefore recommended to use the same batch number for the same project.
- Opened cartridges can be stored several days if the nozzle is plugged with some sealant. Remove the cured sealant from the nozzle before any further application.
- Although PCI Silcofug E contains fungicides, the joints should be cleaned with appropriate household cleaners and/or disinfectants in sanitary areas to prevent mould and mildew growth.
- Suitable tools are available e.g. from Karl Dahm Ludwigstr. 5 83358 Seebruck/Germany.
- Remove sealant spills with PCI Univerdünner while the material is still uncured. Cured sealant can only be removed by mechanical scraping.
