DUXSEAL


ISO 9001 : 2000 Certified
 

The Duxseal is a multiple-purpose sealing and caulking compound with excellent adhesion and high shape retention.  Duxseal brand compound is widely used throughout the industry in a virtually unlimited number of applications, because of its unique characteristics. Duxseal has a heavy, putty-like consistency (thumb grade). It is compounded with a non-asbestos inert fiber and non-drying synthetic oil base, and handles like putty.  Duxseal adheres to most clean surfaces. It is insoluble in water and unaffected by moisture, ordinary gases and condensates. Seals out dust, dirt, water, acids, air, fumes and gases. It never hurts or stains hands.  Duxseal is re-useable. It is easily removed and reapplied whenever necessary. Both application and removal are done by hand… no heat necessary.  Duxseal has excellent shape retention. It is easily formed to fit any application and holds that form and does not support flame.
 

Applications //

Although Duxseal was originally developed for use by electric power and telephone companies to seal openings in ducts carrying conductors, Duxseal also has become an indispensable item for plumbers, steamfitters, air conditioning mechanics, maintenance engineers, general mechanics and general handymen.

Because of its almost unlimited versatility, Duxseal is used by the trades to seal :

Against Gas Leakage:  Duxseal helps prevent gas leakage and infiltration from leaky gas mains and other underground sources, when used around cable openings at the base of fire boxes, traffic lights, street lights and similar electric utility fixtures.

Battery Terminals: Duxseal covers and surrounds battery terminals to protect against over-flow and fumes. Duxseal battery terminal «caps» hold their shape and are easily removed and reapplied.

Steel Window Frames: Also, ventilator shafts, duct openings and other such applications in various types of factories and industrial buildings. Duxseal can be stuffed into place as easily as putty.

Around Plumbing Fixtures:  Highly recommended around riser pipes, wall nipples, faucet holes and other interior and exterior locations where its dark color is not objectionable.

Reflector Lenses:  Holds and helps to seal recessed airport floodlights and similar equipement.

Vibrating Metalwork:  Dampens vibration between grill and duct work.

Duxseal also is used extensively to seal:  Cracks in brick and concrete work.

Potheads, bushings and terminal boxes.

Leaky seams in hot air and air conditioning ducts.

Steel piping to provide corrosion protection, where concrete slab cracks and needs reinforcing.

Around steel conduits where they enter exposed junction box.

* Duxseal is not recommended as an electrical insulation.
