Pettit AnchorTech Premium Fast Dry Adhesive Sealant, White, 10.1 oz Cartridge
Pettit AnchorTech Premium Fast Dry Adhesive Sealant, White, 10.1 oz Cartridge
Pettit AnchorTech Premium Fast Dry Adhesive Sealant is a hybrid polyurethane adhesive sealant built for boat builders, repair techs, and DIY owners who need a permanent, waterproof bond above or below the waterline. It can be applied and will cure while submerged, and it forms a 100% waterproof seal once cured, making it suitable for through-hull hardware, hull seams, deck fittings, and other wet-environment bonding and sealing jobs. The gunnable, non-sag paste has excellent green strength, meaning it grabs and holds immediately on application, so parts stay in place without extensive clamping or taping while the bond sets.
The formula offers a high elongation of 350% and tolerates joint movement of plus or minus 25%, giving it the flexibility to handle vibration, flexing, and thermal expansion without cracking or losing its seal. It is paintable once cured, so finished joints can be color-matched to the surrounding surface. Application is possible in temperatures as low as 41 degrees F, and the sealant will not freeze in storage, making it practical for cold-weather boatyards. It adheres to wood, aluminum, most metals, vinyl, most plastics, glass, fiberglass, and most other common boat building materials, covering the majority of adhesive and sealing needs on a typical vessel.
