Pemko S88GR30 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What is the Pemko S88 adhesive perimeter gasketing used for?
The S88 provides perimeter sealing for doors and frames. It creates weatherproof barriers against air, water, and dust infiltration. Common applications include commercial doors, industrial facilities, and institutional buildings requiring reliable environmental sealing.
2) Which door types are compatible with the S88 gasketing?
The S88 works with most commercial hollow metal doors, wood doors, and aluminum storefront doors. Verify door frame dimensions and gasket compression requirements. The adhesive backing adheres to clean metal, wood, and painted surfaces when properly prepared.
3) How do you handle and store the S88 gasketing?
Store rolls in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight. Handle carefully to prevent kinking or crushing the gasket profile. Allow material to reach room temperature before installation. Keep adhesive backing protected until ready for application.
4) What finish options are available for the S88?
The S88 typically comes in black EPDM rubber construction. The material provides UV resistance and maintains flexibility across temperature ranges. Check with manufacturer specifications for any custom color availability or special material formulations.
5) What performance grade does the S88 gasketing provide?
The S88 offers commercial-grade sealing performance with EPDM rubber construction. It withstands normal building movement and temperature cycling. Verify specific pressure ratings and deflection requirements for your application with manufacturer data sheets.
6) Are there building code considerations for the S88?
Check local fire codes for material compliance in rated assemblies. The gasket should not interfere with required door operation or egress requirements. Verify that installation maintains proper door clearances and swing patterns per code requirements.
7) What accessories are needed for S88 installation?
Basic installation requires surface cleaning supplies and a utility knife for cutting. Use denatured alcohol to clean adhesive surfaces. A roller tool helps ensure proper adhesive contact. Measure carefully and order appropriate lengths to minimize waste.
8) How do you install the S88 perimeter gasketing?
Clean all surfaces thoroughly with denatured alcohol. Remove adhesive backing gradually while pressing gasket firmly in place. Start at one corner and work continuously around the perimeter. Ensure proper compression against the door when closed. Cut joints cleanly for tight corner connections.
9) What maintenance does the S88 gasketing require?
Inspect gaskets periodically for wear, compression set, or adhesive failure. Clean with mild soap and water to remove dirt buildup. Replace sections that show permanent deformation or loss of sealing contact. Check corner joints for separation or gaps.
10) What are related Pemko gasketing models to the S88?
Consider other Pemko gasketing products for different applications. The S-series offers various profiles for specific sealing requirements. Compare compression characteristics and installation methods when selecting alternatives for your project.
11) How do field conditions affect S88 performance?
Extreme temperatures can affect initial adhesive bonding during installation. High humidity areas may require additional surface preparation time. Wind-driven rain conditions will test the gasket's sealing effectiveness. Plan installation during favorable weather conditions when possible.
12) How do you measure for S88 gasketing requirements?
Measure the complete perimeter of each door frame requiring gasketing. Add 10% extra length for cutting waste and corner overlaps. Verify frame rabbet dimensions match the gasket profile. Check door-to-frame clearances to ensure proper compression without binding.
