Scope1.1 This specification describes products composed of denseelastomeric silicone rubber that are fabricated into

3、gaskets andaccessories (such as setting blocks, spacers, and shims) for usein sealing and glazing applications in building construction.These products are used to seal or serve as components ofcompression sealing systems between mechanically restrainedsurfaces in building construction and also as co

4、mponents instructural silicone sealant glazing systems.1.2 The following precautionary statement pertains only tothe test method portion, Section 10, of this specification. Thisstandard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns,if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility o

5、f the userof this standard to establish appropriate safety and healthpractices and determine the applicability of regulatory limita-tions prior to use.1.3 Test Method C1166, as referenced in this specification,should be used to measure and describe the properties ofmaterials, products, or assemblies

6、 in response to heat and flameunder controlled laboratory conditions and should not be usedto describe or appraise the fire hazard or fire risk of materials,products, or assemblies under actual fire conditions. However,results of this test may be used as elements of a fire riskassessment that takes

7、into account all of the factors which arepertinent to an assessment of the fire hazard of a particular enduse.1.4 The values stated in metric (SI) units are to be regardedas the standard.The inch-pound values given in parentheses areprovided for information purposes only.1.5 The committee with juris

Classification4.1 The products described by this specification are classi-fied by type, hardness, class, and surface.4.2 Type:4.2.1 Type T, Tear ResistantIn general these productshave a higher level of tear resistance, midrange heat agin

18、gcharacteristics, midrange compression set resistance, and 30 to70 durometer hardness. This type is applicable where finishedproducts are intended to bridge or to cover a space (forexample, expansion joint gaskets), or where high tear strengthis required due to conditions of exposure or usage.4.2.2

19、Type C, Compression Set ResistantIn general, theseproducts have a lower level of tear resistance, above midrangeheat aging characteristics, a high level of compression setresistance, and 30 to 85 durometer hardness. This type isapplicable where finished products are used as compressiongaskets, or wh

20、ere low compression set is required due toconditions of exposure or usage; and as settingblocks, spacers,shims, or other accessories in glazing and sealing systems.4.3 HardnessEach type described in 4.2 is subdividedinto various hardnesses, based on nominal durometer hardnessas shown in Table 1 and

21、Table 2. For example, Grade H3 is 30durometer.4.4 Class:4.4.1 Flame propagation characteristics of the finished prod-ucts can be varied depending on the degree of exposure,expected usage, and intended durability desired. Productsdescribed by this specification shall be classified as to flamepropagat

22、ion as follows:4.4.1.1 Class FResistance to flame propagation is re-quired.4.4.1.2 When no flame propagation resistance is required,no class designation should be used.4.5 Surface:4.5.1 Consideration of product surface requirements may benecessary. During the production of these products the use ofv

23、arious lubricants, release agents, dusting agents, and othersolutions may be required. It may be necessary after vulcani-zation to remove these materials from the surfaces of theproduct because of appearance, fabrication, or usage require-ments. All products do not require removal of those materials

24、or removal to the same degree of cleanliness.4.5.2 Products may also be required to develop adhesion orto not develop adhesion to sealants with which they are incontact.4.5.3 Products described by this specification shall be clas-sified as to surface condition as follows:4.5.3.1 Surface S1The surfac
