DOWSIL™ 983 Structural Glazing Sealant Base

About this product

DOWSIL™ 983 Structural Glazing Sealant Base is designed for specialized use where dual structural and weatherseal applications are desired for factory glazing and curtainwall production. Once cured, this structural sealant forms a durable, flexible, watertight bond that can be warranted for 20 years and used in +/-25% movement weatherseal applications. It has excellent unprimed adhesion to glass, alodine, and anodized aluminum, although DOWSIL™ Primer-C OS is recommended for fast and consistent adhesion, especially to high-performance substrates approved for architectural structural glazing applications. Sustainability: Low embodied carbon DOWSIL™ Silicone. Project specific DOW Carbon Neutrality Certificate on request. Externally verified carbon neutrality according to PAS 2060. Carbon Neutrality with DOW Carbon "INSETS" and reduce carbon footprint. Green Building certification: contributes to getting additional credits. Enhance carbon balance (>20x) with long-term durable facade silicones.
