Window \u0026 Door Sealant","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe joint between a window or door frame and the rough opening is where most drafts, wind-driven rain and heat loss get into a wall. Framing is cut loose for shimming and squaring, and that deliberate gap has to be closed with something that stays sealed after the unit is fastened and the trim goes on.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a sealant intended for exactly that perimeter joint. It is applied after the unit is set, shimmed and fastened but before casing, brickmould or interior trim covers the opening, filling the void between the jamb and the framing so the assembly reads as a continuous air and water barrier rather than a hole with a window in it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause a frame and the surrounding framing move at different rates through the seasons, a sealant used at an opening has to stay flexible rather than cure hard and crack away from one side of the joint. Sealants sold for window and door work are formulated with that movement in mind and for adhesion to the mix of substrates found at an opening.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormulated for the perimeter joint between a window or door frame and the rough opening, the most common point of air and water infiltration in a wall assembly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCloses the shim gap left for squaring and plumbing a unit without requiring the gap to be packed with insulation alone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStays flexible after cure so the seal is not broken by seasonal movement between the frame and the surrounding framing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdheres to the substrates typically present at an opening, including wood framing, vinyl and clad frames, and metal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApplied after the unit is set and fastened and concealed by casing, brickmould or interior trim, so appearance of the bead is not a finish concern\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupplied as a single-component product in a ready-to-use container, sold individually\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorks alongside flashing, housewrap and weatherstripping as part of the air and water control layer at the opening rather than as a substitute for them\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eApplications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSealing the perimeter of new window units in wood-framed rough openings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReplacement and retrofit door installations, including entry doors and patio sliders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAir sealing rough openings during weatherization and envelope tightening work\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSealing behind exterior casing, brickmould and drip caps before trim is installed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClosing the jamb gap at sidelights, transoms and fixed sash units\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDraft-proofing existing openings found leaking during renovation or punch-list work\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sealant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIntended Use:\u003c\/strong\u003e Window and door perimeter sealing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eContainer Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 24 oz.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSold As:\u003c\/strong\u003e Each\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCategory:\u003c\/strong\u003e Weatherproofing and sealants\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"product-specs\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eWeight\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e24 OZ\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"ARCH Building Supply","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55112696004947,"sku":"820435037613","price":11.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1012\/7743\/4195\/files\/arch-placeholder-coming-soon_d23715eb-2601-4c45-aeb9-91b138794a6d.webp?v=1790734515","url":"https:\/\/arch-9365.myshopify.com\/es\/products\/24-oz-window-door-sealant-820435037613","provider":"ARCH","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
