NovaFlex Qwik-Set Low Migration Glazing Sealant
Introducing the all new NovaFlex Qwik-Set Low Migration Glazing Sealant (QGL). With increased adhesion and tensile strength, plus superior compatibility with secondary sealants, this is the next generation of Qwik-Set glazing sealants.
Allowing for movement of assemblies within minutes of application without silicone transfer or glass shifting, NovaFlex Qwik-Set Low Migration Glazing Sealant is a two-component, neutral cure sealant that rapidly builds adhesive and develops a primerless bond for bedding and glazing of glass in residential and commercial window designs. Engineered with the added benefit of low migration to protect and prevent breakdown of the secondary sealant, it creates a strong bond to provide a long-lasting seal that prevents premature failures and callbacks.
- Rapid cure to increase efficiencies and help speed up production lines
- Excellent primerless adhesion to most substrates and accessories
- Low migration to protect and help prevent breakdown of the secondary sealant
- Void-free filling of sealant joint
- Squeeze-out cleanup that’s quick and easy
- Long-term resistance to natural weathering

Details
NovaFlex Qwik-Set Low Migration Glazing Sealant develops high initial green strength so you don’t have to slow your production waiting for traditional backbeddings to cure. One of the largest advantages of Qwik-Set Low Migration Glazing Sealant is how quickly it cures – within minutes rather than hours or days. This innovative two-part silicone sealant achieves a tensile strength of over 26 pounds psi after just 15 minutes – more than enough to move the window down the line.
Qwik-Set Low Migration Glazing Sealant demonstrates outstanding long-term resistance to natural weathering including extreme temperatures, ultraviolet radiation, rain, and snow, with negligible change in elasticity. Formulated to support high manufacturing throughput, the variable mix ratio of Qwik-Set Low Migration Glazing allows the cure profile to be dynamically adjusted based on plant conditions.
Silicone setting blocks are recommended for direct contact with Qwik-Set Low Migration Glazing Sealant. Avoid using non-silicone materials (i.e., EPDM, Neoprene) as they could degrade or discolor the product seal over time. Compatibility testing is recommended on all material that are to be in direct contact with Qwik-Set Low Migration Glazing Sealant. Do not use in or around highly oxidative chemicals such as liquid oxygen, chlorine, or peroxides. We do not recommend for use on joints continuously submerged under water or areas needing paint or stain.
Meets or exceeds the strength performance characteristics of AAMA 802.3, Type I & II, and AAMA 805.2, Group C.
