Titebond has made it easier for contractors to permanently repair, seal and fill non-structural cracks in concrete, masonry and more with its new TitePatch Elastomeric Patching Compound.
TitePatch is used for both interior and exterior applications and is available in both smooth brush-grade and textured knife-grade formulations. The smooth brush-grade formulation can be brushed over smaller, hairline cracks in stucco and masonry as well as concrete, wood, brick, PVC, aluminum and galvanized steel. The textured knife-grade version is for filling, sealing and repairing larger cracks in those same substrates.
Both formulations offer strong adhesion to substrates, remain flexible and can be painted 30 minutes after application. Their latex-based formulation allows for water clean-up when still wet. They are also VOC-compliant, with a VOC content less than 50 g/L. Both formulations offer a two-year shelf life when stored properly.
TitePatch joins a broad offering of high-performance Titebond sealants, as well as construction adhesives, developed with the construction pro in mind. It is available in one-gallon pails through building supply stores and distributors. More information on all Titebond products is available at Titebond.com.
About Franklin International
Franklin International is among the largest privately held manufacturers of adhesives and sealants in the United States. The company opened in 1935 as the Franklin Glue Company with the first of what would be a long line of adhesive solutions. To address a major concern in the furniture manufacturing industry, Franklin developed the first ready-to-use liquid hide glue. It could be applied at room temperature instead of the 140°F required for traditional hide glue, and it allowed for 20 minutes of assembly time instead of two. That liquid hide glue is still widely used for interior woodworking, musical instruments and antique restoration. Today, Franklin Glue Company is known as Franklin International to reflect its (or “their” – up to you) global distribution across 60 countries on six continents around the globe.
