ImmerSeal® is commonly used in a variety of metal building applications.
Because of its unique properties, ImmerSeal® is used for sealing
high movement areas such as expansion joints, roof to wall transitions,
roof height change details, joints between new and existing buildings,
ridge applications and many other applications including a wide variety
of repair applications.
The high movement capability of ImmerSeal® coupled with the fact that it utilizes a silicone adhesive and thus requires NO MECHANICAL FASTENERS, makes ImmerSeal® an ideal material to be used in these applications.

Key Benefits of Using ImmerSeal®
in Metal Building Applications
Include:
- High flexibility
and movement capability (200%+) allow ImmerSeal® to be
used in areas with high thermal expansion.
- Adheres to metal surfaces using ImmerBond® adhesive
to provide a durable, long lasting seal with NO MECHANICAL
FASTENERS NECESSARY.
- 100% silicone formulation provides a long lasting,
watertight seal unaffected by UV light and weathering.
- Ultra low modulus provides high flexibility and allows
material to easily bend around corners and conform to various
shapes.
- Green strength of ImmerBond® allows ImmerSeal®
to be installed on both horizontal and vertical surfaces with
no additional adhesion means necessary.
- ImmerSeal®/ImmerBond® system adheres to a
variety of metal substrates, including Galvalume®, stainless
steel, galvanized, aluminum, Kynar®, acrylic & siliconized
polyester coated and others.
- ImmerSeal® system cost is up to 50% lower than
other materials used in the same applications.
- Installation time & cost of ImmerSeal® is
much lower than other materials used in similar applications.
