Sikalastic® M 808

Sikalastic® M 808

(former MSeal M 808)

Elastic polyurethane membrane for waterproofing and protection of concrete structures. Suitable for direct contact with potable water and foodstuff

Sikalastic® M 808 is a two component elastic polyurethane membrane, with 100% solids formulation, high chemical and abrasion resistance. Approved for direct contact with potable water and foodstuff.

  • Can be applied on vertical and horizontal surfaces.
  • Easy to apply by roller or air-less spray equipment. 
  • Waterproof.
  • Resistant to standing water.
  • Elastic, flexible and crack-bridging.
 
  • High chemical resistance.
  • Protects concrete against carbonation and rebar corrosion: Once hardened it is impermeable to water and carbon dioxide.
  • Excellent mechanical and elastic properties (elongation, tensile and tear strength, abrasion).
  • Excellent adhesion on different substrates (concrete, steel).
  • Excellent freeze/thaw resistance.
  • UV resistant
  • Thermoset – does not soften at elevated temperatures.
  • 100% solids formulation, no risk for the environment and operative caused by solvent vapours.

Usage

Sikalastic® M 808 is used in waterproofing applications where contact with potable water or a high level of chemical resistance is required. This includes:
  • Water towers, storage tanks or any other water retaining structures.
  • Interior coating to drinking water tanks.
  • Storage tanks containing foodstuffs etc.
  • Waste water treatment plants (urban and industrial), both in the inflow and outflow areas.
  • Sewage effluent pipelines.
  • Steel and concrete pipes.
Sikalastic® M 808 can be applied on:
  • Horizontal and vertical substrates.
  • Internal and external areas.
  • Concrete, cementitious mortar or steel substrates.
  • Reinforced concrete to protect it against carbonation or chloride induced corrosion and for protection against chemical attack in secondary containment bunds in chemical and petrochemical industries.
