Product Description
Timber SetTM is specifically designed for use as an adhesive sealant between log courses during the stacking process. Timber Set is a flexible layer of protection that will seal out air, moisture and pests. Timber Set can be used either in conjunction with foam gasket systems or as a direct gasket replacement. Timber Set is a premium acrylic latex caulk with high adhesive strength that insures a permanent, flexible bond. Timber Set is for use on Swedish cope and all machined log profiles.

Application Instructions
All surfaces to be sealed should be clean and free from any dirt, oils or other foreign materials. Surface temperature of the logs should be between 400F and 950F. Do not apply to surfaces that are frozen or covered with ice. Apply Timber Set according to your Log Home Manufacturer's construction specifications.
Timber Set can be applied using a commercial pump, bulk loading caulking gun or standard gun. Please refer to your Log Home Manufacturer's construction manual for bead size requirements and bead location for all joinery. Some Log Home Manufacturers require a double bead of sealant to be applied between mating surfaces. Always follow your Log Home Manufacturer's instructions when using any product.
Timber Set is designed for use as an internal sealant but it can also be safely used in most areas of construction requiring an exposed sealant.
