#164®

POLYMERIC HOT-APPLIED SEALANT
Provides an economical, hot-applied joint sealant for large-scale joint and crack sealing operations.

SEALTIGHT #164 Polymeric Hot-Applied Sealant is ideal for large concrete pavement, bridge, runway and taxiway maintenance crack and joint sealing projects.

Technical Description
SEALTIGHT #164 Polymeric Sealant is a time-proven, hot-applied polymeric sealant which combines a tenacious adhesive power with high resiliency. #164 provides a positive seal during expansion and contraction of the joint and it will not lose bond in cold weather or flow in hot weather.

Uses
#164 is ideal for the large-scale sealing of transverse and longitudinal joints in Portland Cement concrete pavements and joints in bridges, airport runways, taxiways, etc. It is also used for the maintenance sealing of cracks and joints in concrete and asphaltic concrete pavements, parking lots, etc.

Advantages and Benefits

Application Tools

Proper routing should be slightly larger than existing crack/joint to ensure proper adhesion to sidewalls. The sealant should be applied into the crack/joint from the bottom up, slightly overfilling. Once applied, a follow-up should be done with a soft rubber, U-shaped squeege to form a wipe zone of approximately 3-4 inches (76.2-101.6mm) wide along the crack/joint and flush with the highway or pavement surface. To control and maintain the suggested joint depth and sealant usage, SEALTIGHT CERA-ROD Heat-Resistant Backer Rod may be installed in the joint opening.

NEW CONCRETE PAVEMENT SEALING: Typical joint configuration should be 3/8" (9.54mm) wide with a minimum 1/2" (12.7mm) depth for an approximate 1:1 width-to-depth ratio. Designated joint width and depth is determined by the appropriate highway or pavement authority. SEALTIGHT CERA-ROD Heat-Resistant Backer Rod may be installed in the joint opening to control depth and sealant usage.

SEALANT APPLICATION: Seal with SEALTIGHT #164, when the air and pavement temperatures are 40ºF (4ºC) or higher. At the end of each day's sealing operation, all material remaining in the lines should be drawn off. Small quantities of unused material remaining in the melter may be remelted and used the following day.

Coverage
69.8 Ibs./ft³ (1,120 kg/m³). A 1/2" x 1/2" (12.7mm x 12.7mm) joint will require 12.2 Ibs./100 linear feet (18.2 kg/100m).

Precautions
DO NOT DILUTE. #164 is not resistant to jet fuels and is not recommended for swimming pools or joints subjected to hydrostatic pressure. #164 must not be heated above the recommended 390ºF (199ºC) or the rubber polymers will decompose, resulting in unsatisfactory performance. Refer to Material Safety Data Sheet for complete Health and Safety Information.
