Sealing in safety
Modern buildings are being designed to provide protection from the unexpected. Whether from natural forces – such as hurricanes, typhoons, extreme weather or seismic activity – or man-made threats – such as bomb blasts and criminal trespass, silicones provide a flexible anchor between a building’s glass and frame.
Dow’s impact-resistant silicone structural sealants not only help you provide increased security and protection, they also contribute to the safety of impact-resistant window systems by reducing the potential for broken glass being blown from its frame.
You can count on Dow’s structural sealants for:
- High tensile and tear strength
- Long-term flexibility
- Proven resistance to weather and temperature extremes, and ultraviolet radiation
- Excellent adhesion to glass and most window frame materials
