PENOSIL Structural Glazing Silicone 371 is a high-performance, high-modulus, one-component neutral curing silicone sealant specifically engineered for demanding structural glazing applications. Designed to offer both superior adhesion and sealing capabilities, this advanced silicone provides a strong, flexible, and durable bond between glass and structural elements such as metal, aluminum, and other construction materials. Its unique formulation allows it to serve as both an adhering and sealing system in a single application, making it the ideal choice for modern architectural glazing projects where strength, flexibility, and aesthetic appeal are critical.
One of the standout features of PENOSIL Structural Glazing Silicone 371 is its ability to bond securely to a wide range of materials commonly used in structural glazing systems, including glass, aluminum, steel, and various other construction substrates. This ensures that the silicone can form a robust and permanent bond, even in projects where large glass panels are used to create expansive facades or curtain wall systems. Its high modulus nature allows it to withstand substantial loads and stresses without compromising on flexibility, making it ideal for structural applications that require long-term durability and stability.
The neutral curing process of PENOSIL Structural Glazing Silicone 371 ensures that it does not cause corrosion or staining on sensitive materials like metals and glass, preserving the aesthetic integrity of the building. This makes it particularly well-suited for use in modern glass facades, skylights, and structural glazing systems where maintaining a clean, sleek appearance is essential.
Thanks to its excellent weatherproofing properties, PENOSIL Structural Glazing Silicone 371 can withstand harsh environmental conditions, including exposure to UV rays, extreme temperatures, rain, wind, and moisture. It remains flexible and durable over time, preventing the seal from cracking, shrinking, or degrading, even in extreme climates. This ensures that the structural integrity of the glazing system remains intact, providing long-lasting protection and maintaining the building’s energy efficiency.
Key Features:
- High Modulus Silicone: Offers superior strength and adhesion, making it ideal for structural glazing applications where strong bonding and load-bearing capacity are essential.
- One-Component, Neutral Curing: Easy to apply without the need for mixing, this neutral curing formula ensures that there is no risk of corrosion or staining on metals or glass surfaces.
- Adhesion and Sealing in One: Acts as both an adhesive and sealant, providing a dual-function solution for bonding and sealing glass to structural elements in a single application.
- Exceptional Weather Resistance: Provides long-term protection against environmental factors such as UV rays, rain, wind, and extreme temperatures, ensuring a durable and flexible seal that lasts.
- Flexible and Durable: Accommodates movement in structural joints due to thermal expansion, contraction, or building shifts, while maintaining a secure and long-lasting bond.
- Versatile Bonding: Adheres effectively to a wide range of construction materials, including glass, aluminum, steel, and other common structural substrates.
Ideal Uses:
- Structural glazing applications in modern architectural projects, including the installation of large glass facades and curtain walls.
- Bonding and sealing glass to metal, aluminum, or other structural elements in skylights, glass partitions, and window systems.
- Creating durable, weatherproof seals in exterior glazing systems where exposure to environmental factors such as UV radiation, rain, wind, and temperature fluctuations is expected.
- Sealing and bonding in high-rise buildings, commercial complexes, and residential structures that require a strong, flexible, and aesthetically clean finish.
