Rooftec Lead Flashing Sealant - Grey 

Lead sealant, also known as lead flashing sealant, is a type of sealant specifically formulated for use with lead flashing. Lead flashing is a thin, malleable sheet made of lead or a lead alloy that is used in the construction industry to provide weatherproofing and prevent water penetration at joints and transitions in roofs, walls, and other building elements. Lead sealant is used in conjunction with lead flashing to create a watertight and long-lasting seal.

Key characteristics and uses of lead sealant:

1. Waterproofing: Lead sealant is designed to create a waterproof seal between lead flashing and various building materials, such as brickwork, masonry, roofing materials, and chimney stacks.

2. Flexibility: It has a high degree of flexibility to accommodate the expansion and contraction of lead flashing due to temperature changes without compromising the seal.

3. Durability: Lead sealant is highly durable and resistant to weathering, UV radiation, and moisture, ensuring the longevity of the seal.

4. Compatibility: It is specifically formulated to bond effectively with lead surfaces, ensuring a secure and long-lasting bond.

5. Versatility: Besides lead flashing applications, it can also be used for sealing and weatherproofing other roofing and construction materials, including metal, concrete, and certain plastics.

Common applications of lead sealant include:

• Sealing lead flashing around chimneys and vent pipes on roofs.
• Sealing lead sheet joints and overlaps in roofing systems.
• Creating watertight connections between lead gutters and other roofing components.
• Weatherproofing lead valleys, where roof slopes meet.
• Securing lead aprons around windows and doors.
• General waterproofing and sealing in construction and roofing projects where lead is used.
