Sealants and Adhesives


Sikaflex®-292, SikaFast®-3161 and SikaFast®-5211, used on the Queen Mary 2 for example, have excellent shock absorbing and vibration dampening properties highly capable of meeting the requirements of a punishing marine environment.

Sikaflex®-291, used here on the Pacific Cat for example, is a flexible marine sealant that bonds extremely well to all standard materials used in boat and ship construction.

For timber and teak decks that need to be completely watertight and weather-resistant, Sika have developed Sikaflex®-290 DC. The Sikaflex®-290 DC caulking compound represents an important element of Sika’s Totally Glued Teak Decking System, consisting of SikaTransfloor®-352 and Sikaflex®-298. This system has successfully been applied on many cruise ships and luxury yachts since 1980.

The UV-resistant properties of Sikaflex®-295 UV and Sikaflex®-296 sealant / adhesive products, used on-board Aida cruise ships for example, warrant endurance of the system as a back filler and bondline adhesive simultaneously.

The permanent elastic layer of cured Sikaflex®-298 supplies a cushioning effect, absorbs shock, minimizes transmission of impact sound and makes life on-board more enjoyable for both passengers and crew.
