EMSEAL CUSTOM Silicone Bellows Color Choices


Custom Silicone Color Selection-Options

EMSEAL will produce custom-colored products for your project based on these options:

Option 1: From the custom silicone material selected for your project and shipped to us for coating a product to match your field-tooled joints. In this option there are no minimums--see details below.

Option 2: In custom colors ordered to the silicone manufacturers' minimum quantities.

For more information on either of these options, call the Tech Team now or see below for more information.

Option 1: From the custom, silicone material selected for your project and shipped to us for coating a product to match your field-tooled joints.

In this commonly used option, you have selected a custom pre-tinted silicone for use in 'caulking' all the smaller joints and connections on your building.  Here's how it works:

- The waterproofing subcontractor has ordered the custom silicone in cartridges, sausages, or pails from the silicone manufacturer.

- The contractor tells EMSEAL the product, size, and quantity of EMSEAL material required.

- We calculate the number of cartridges, sausages or pails of silicone needed to produce the order.

- From the silicone they have received, the subcontractor ships the material to our plant.

- EMSEAL manufactures the SEISMIC, standard, HORIZONTAL, or double-sided COLORSEAL desired and ships it to the contractor for installation.

- The contractor uses the matching material already on site for the field application of silicone to join lengths of the EMSEAL product and for injection of the substrate sealing bands and corner beads.

- Silicones tested for suitability as a bellows on our coated products include:

             Pecora 890NTS,

             Dow 790, Dow 795,

             GE (Momentive) Silpruf.

(for manufacturers not listed--Consult EMSEAL)


Option 2: In custom colors ordered to the silicone manufacturers' minimum quantities.

In this option you specify a custom, pre-tinted silicone color and EMSEAL orders that material from the respective silicone manufacturer subject to that manufacturer's minimum order quantities and lead times.

EMSEAL manufacturers the SEISMIC, standard, HORIZONTAL, or double-sided COLORSEAL desired and ships it along with adequate material for the field application of silicone to join lengths of the EMSEAL product and for injection of the substrate sealing bands and corner beads.

Depending on the containers in which the custom color is shipped to EMSEAL, this could result in the need for the contractor to use bulk-caulking guns to field apply the silicone.

- Pre-tinted silicones tested for suitability as a bellows on our coated products include:

             Pecora 890NTS

             Dow 790, Dow 795

             GE (Momentive) Silpruf.

(for manufacturers not listed--Consult EMSEAL)

(IMPORTANT: When specifying or ordering, please remember to state explicitly both the silicone manufacturer's name and the color, ex. "Dow 790 Limestone".)
