ASTM C1311-14 PDF

Scope: 6.1 This specification describes solvent release sealants for general caulking and sealing operations in building construction. However, it should be recognized by the user that not all sealants meeting this specification are suitable for all applications and all substrates and that there is no implication that the sealants are equivalent in all physical properties.

6.2 Refer to Guide C1193 for information on the proper use of sealants meeting this specification.

1.1 This specification describes the properties of a one-component solvent release sealant for use in building construction. These sealants are generally formulated to withstand a maximum joint movement of 7.58201;% in extension and 7.58201;% in compression of the nominal joint width.

1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard. The values given in parentheses are for information only.

1.3 The committee with jurisdiction of this specification is not aware of any similar specification within ISO or any other organization.
