    Directions for Use

    Uses:

    DP 1010 may be used to seal joints on metal, flexible and fiberglass duct board supply and return air duct.

    Surface Preparation:

    Surfaces should be clean, dry and free of dirt, oil and any foreign matter.

    For sheet metal duct:

    DP 1010 should be applied to all connections according to SMACNA standards. Brush, caulk, pump or trowel DP 1010 on all duct seams. Apply to TDC/TDF and applied flange corners. Apply to all penetrations in the duct wall including sheet metal screw heads and tie rods. When caulking DP 1010, sealant should be brushed into seams.

    For round and oval spiral duct:

    Apply DP 1010 to the male section of the fitting or to the inside slip duct coupling. Secure with sheet metal screws per manufacturers requirements. Apply a 2-inch band of DP 1010 around outside of joint, covering all screws.

    For rigid fiberglass air duct: Assemble sections according to the manufacturers recommendations. Apply a 3-inch by 20 mil band of DP 1010 to the joint. Embed a fiberglass scrim (5 mil, 20 x 10 plain weave, 1.75 oz per sq. yd.) in the sealant and apply another 20 mil coat of DP 1010 over the scrim.

    For flexible duct: Install flexible duct per manufacturers instructions using drawbands or mechanical fastener. Apply DP 1010 at a rate of 40-80 sq. ft. per gallon (20-40 mils) between the end of the duct and the collar in a 2-inch band. Use DP 1010 to seal all connections of collar to metal duct or rigid fiberglass ductboard.

    Pressure Testing: Allow at least 48 hours before pressure testing. Since temperature and humidity conditions may vary, longer cure times may be required for specific installations. Do not apply when rain or freezing temperatures will occur within 36 hours. Do not thin.
