NOVAFLEX Metal Roof Sealant offers superior product performance compared to traditional roof sealants.  The product is solvent free (100% solids), is V.O.C. compliant meeting CARB and OTC regulations, easily gunned at all temperatures and easy to cleanup making this product universally liked by contractors in northern and southern climates.  The product offers industry leading weatherability and UV resistance and is mold/mildew resistant.  NOVAFLEX’s plastic tubes and exclusive Tip Kits eliminate headaches for distributors and contractors alike with easily applied tips for gunning the sealant and sealing caps to protect the sealant for use at a later time.

Testing of NOVAFLEX silicone Metal Roof Sealant demonstrates that it offers improved benefits of superior UV resistance, superior weatherability, outstanding adhesion to Kynar® coated metal roof substrates, a tack free time less than 15 minutes, total cure in as little as 24 hours and has shrinkage on cure of 1 to 4%. It extrudes easily down to 0o F, is mildew resistant and has been shown to offer superior adhesion to Kynar® coated metal, steel and aluminum metal roof substrates than traditional roofing sealants.  The combined effect of these features offers metal roof installation or metal roof repair applications with a superior technology sealant adhesive system and for the contractor offers superior ease of use and cleanup.

NOVAFLEX Multi-Purpose Adhesive Sealant was introduced on February 1st, 2012 to meet the demand for a high performance silicone adhesive sealant for general purpose construction applications involving the installation or repair of windows, doors, siding, trim, gutters or metal roofs.  Multi-Purpose Adhesive Sealant is AAMA® verified for window and door installations as well.  This product enjoys the same superior silicone oxime chemistry as NOVAFLEX Metal Roof Sealant which insures an extraordinary long life, is weatherproof, offers industry leading UV resistance, won’t crack, peal, sag or slump and maintains its adhesion and elasticity over its 30+ year service life.  Multi-Purpose Adhesive Sealant also incorporates the same high technology adhesion chemistry as Metal Roof Sealant, consequently, it offers exceptional adhesion to most common building substrates including metal (aluminum or steel) surfaces including PVDF coated metal surfaces such as Kynar® and is available in more than 50 colors.
