EST-4001 is a non-hardening butyl rubber based sealant, designed to comply with the current standards and specifications required by Federal, State, and local regulatory agencies for use with the precast concrete industry and its contractors. EST-4001 is designed to remain flexible and will not shrink or oxidize under long-term aging, and it is resistant to environmental temperature extremes, acid and alkaline conditions. An adhesive type seal, it bonds immediately to a clean, dry surface, including concrete, metal, glass, and most plastics.


Adhesion and cohesion actually improve after initial bond has been formed and placed in service, and as such, these butyl sealants are in common use sealing:

  • Concrete Foundations
  • Burial Vaults 
  • Pipe Joints
  • Manhole Joints
  • Septic Tanks
  • Utility Tanks
