Product:

Fix190 HT is a high quality single component
joint adhesive sealant based on MS-Polymer®. It
is chemically neutral and fully elastic. For use in
low movement joints and for structural bonding
and direct glazing in marine, transport, aerospace
and construction industries, where a strong flexible
bond is required. Suitable for below waterline
applications. Fix190 HT is approved by:
Det Norske Veritas (DNV) – Structural bonding
and direct glazing
Germanischer Lloyd (GL) - Structural bonding and
direct glazing
Standards Assurance Innovations – AS/NZ4020
for potable water.

Characteristics:

- Outstanding bond strength on most all

substrates, colour stable and UV resistant

- Excellent adhesion on porous and non-porous

substrates (primer may be required)

- High performance mechanical properties

- Flexible elastic rubber, movement

accomodation ± 20%

- Easy application

- No bubble formulation within the sealant

- Ecological advantages; free from isocyanates,

solvents, halogens and acids

- Verified by NOHSC as non-hazardous

- Can be painted (compatibility tests

recommended)

Applications:

Structural bonding, direct glazing, areas subject to
vibration. Suitable for all marine and RV
applications including glazing, bonding, sealing of
floors, walls and components. Elastic bonding of
components made from carbon fibre, fibreglass,
aluminium, steel, copper, brass, stainless steel,
glass, PVC and ABS plastics, polystyrene and
wood and others, test is best if unsure or call.

Revision: 9/2020

We do not recommend the Fix190HT for use in sealing
exterior exposed oily wood such as teak, instead we

recommend Fix1DC for this application.

Packaging:

Colour - Black and White
Packaging – 290mL cartridge, 600mL foil bag

Shelf life:

18 months Cartridges; 18 months Foil Bags; from
production date, in unopened packaging in a cool
and dry storage place at temperatures between
+5°C and 23°C. Higher temperatures means
shorter shelf life.

Surfaces:

State of Surface: Abraded, clean, dry, free of dust
and grease
Priming: For porous substrates Fixseal Fix1060 or
Fixseal Fix1066 may be applied. Polypropylene,
Primer PR20. Non-porous substrates may be
cleaned with Methylated Spirits or an alcohol
cleaner.
We recommend a preliminary compatibility test.

Joint Dimensions:

Minimal Width: 2mm (bonding)
5mm (joint)
Maximum Width: 10mm (bonding)
30mm (joint)

Minimum Depth: 5mm(joint)
Recommendation: width of joint = 2 x depth

Resistance to Chemicals:

Good resistance to water, aliphatic solvents,
mineral oils, grease, diluted inorganic acids.
Poor resistance to aromatic solvents, alkalis
concentrated acids and chlorinated hydrogens

Application:

Method: Manual or pneumatic caulking gun
Clean up: Methylated Spirits or denatured alcohol

cleaner immediately after application and before
curing.
Tooling: mild diluted soapy solution before skin
formation
Repair: Fix190HT

Health- and Safety Recommendation:

Apply the usual industrial hygiene. Wear gloves .
Safety Glasses.

Remarks:

• Fix190 HT may be overpainted with water

based paints, however due to the large
number of paints and varnishes available we
strongly recommend compatability tests
before application. The drying time of some
alkyd paint systems may increase.

• Fix190 HT can be applied to a wide variety

of substrates. Due to the fact that the specific
properties of substrates will differ from
manufacturer to manufacturer we strongly
recommend compatibility tests.
