Soudal T-Rex Crystal
One-part polyurethane sealant. Fast curing, flexible, sticks to damp concrete and masonry.
Soudal T-REX CRYSTAL is a one-part moisture-curing polyurethane sealant supplied in cartridges. Sticks to wet surfaces, cures fast and flexible, suitable for most waterproofing joint applications.
What it's for
- Sealing construction and movement joints on wet area floors and walls
- Cove fillets at wall-floor junctions before membranes
- Filling gaps between membranes and building elements
- Sticks to damp concrete and masonry. No primer
Why waterproofers buy it
- Moisture-curing one-pack system. Mix nothing, no mess
- Fast tack time. Slab can be worked quickly
- Flexible when cured. Accommodates substrate movement
- Sticks to damp surfaces without primer
- Paintable after curing
Not for
Completely submerged or permanently wet areas, UV-exposed surfaces without paint coverage, or joints moving more than 20% of joint width annually.

Technical overview
Key applications
- All common bonding and sealing for indoor and outdoor applications
- Transparent and elastic bonding in construction and building applications
- Invisible bonding of glass and other transparent materials in indoor applications
- Joints in bathrooms and kitchens
- Sanitary areas
- Surfaces certified suitable for food contact
Surface suitability
- Brick and concrete (rigid, clean, free of dust and grease, dry or slightly moist)
- Metals (non-porous, prepared with a Soudal Surface Activator for critical applications)
- Treated timber
- PVC and plastics (remove releasing agents, processing aids and protection foil prior to bonding)
- Glass and transparent materials (invisible bonding, indoor applications only, not as a glazing sealant)
- Porous surfaces (primed with Soudal Primer 150)
T-Rex Crystal is not suitable for expansion joints, cannot be used as a glazing sealant, cannot be used on natural stone and is not suitable for bonding aquariums. Do not use in applications where continuous water immersion is possible. Not suitable for PE, PP, PTFE, bituminous substrates, copper or copper-containing materials such as bronze and brass. Bonding plastics like PMMA or polycarbonate in stress loaded applications can give rise to stress cracking and crazing and is not recommended. Application temperature is 5C to 35C. UV resistance is good but the sealant can discolour under extreme conditions or after very long UV exposure, and a total absence of UV can also cause a colour change. Avoid contact with bitumen, tar or other plasticizer releasing materials such as EPDM, neoprene and butyl, which can give rise to discolouration and loss of adhesion. The sanitary formula should not replace regular cleaning of the joint. Run a preliminary adhesion and compatibility test on every surface.
