Sikaflex®-295 UV

If you plan to bond a window, identify the material of the window you want to install first. Common window materials are organic glass (PMMA, PC etc.) or mineral glass. A specific adhesive must be selected according to the window material.

Use Sikaflex®-295 UV for bonding organic glass into your boat and Sikaflex®-296 as a direct glazing adhesive to bond mineral glass.  In order to obtain satisfactory results, consult the pre-treatment chart and prepare the surface accordingly before bonding the window.

For further details read our application guidelines and our pre-treatment chart.

Winches, windlasses are subject to high mechanical stresses, fans, hatches and hatch covers to low stresses. To make sure your fittings are sealed strongly we recommend the following:

Bedding and sealing of fittings subject to high mechanical stresses

Deck fittings such as chain plates, winches and guide rollers must absorb very high dynamic stresses. For this purpose, a high-performance product, Sikaflex®-292i, our assembly adhesive, should be used in conjunction with additional mechanical fixings.

Bedding and sealing of fittings subject to minimal mechanical stresses

Deck fittings, such as ventilators and cover strips, need to be waterproofed but are not subject to high tensile or torsion stresses.

These fittings can be effectively bedded and sealed with only Sikaflex®-291i or if the joint remains visible and is exposed to weathering, then use Sikaflex®-591 or Sikaflex®-295 UV.

Check pre-treatment chart for surface preparation of substrates prior to application and follow application steps according to application guidelines.
