Sikaflex®-529 AT can be processed between
5 °C and 40 °C but changes in reactivity and
application properties have to be considered.
The optimum temperature for substrate and
sealant is between 15 °C and 25 °C.
Sikaflex®-529 AT can be processed with
manual, pneumatic or electric driven piston
guns. For spray application it is recommended
to use the Sika® Jetflow Gun (unipack only).
