Abstract
A modular sealant system configured to provide customizable sealing solutions for various applications, comprising interchangeable components that facilitate tailored installation, maintenance, and adaptability to diverse environmental and structural conditions. A modular sealant system can comprise a modular wall or frame consisting of horizontals and vertical members, one or more panels, one or more backers, a sealant.
Claims17
A modular sealant system consisting of:
- a first panel selectively coupled to a first horizontal member of a modular wall;
- a second panel selectively coupled to a second horizontal member of the modular wall;
- a backer, wherein the backer is:
- selectively coupled to a first prong of a first vertical member of the modular wall and selectively coupled to a first prong of a second vertical member of the modular wall, and
- configured to register the first panel and the second panel relative to each other;
- a geometry defined by an edge of the first panel, an edge of the second panel, and an end face of the backer;
- and
- a sealant having elastomeric properties configured to adhere and conform to the geometry;
- wherein the sealant occupies the geometry and forms a seal configured to prevent an ingress or an egress of air, moisture, and contaminants.

A modular sealant system comprising:
- a first panel selectively coupled to a first horizontal member of a modular wall;
- a second panel selectively coupled a second horizontal member of the modular wall;
- a backer in communication with the modular wall, the backer is selectively coupled to a first prong of a first vertical member of the modular wall and selectively coupled to a first prong of a second vertical member of the modular wall, wherein the backer is configured to register the first panel and the second panel relative to each other in a predefined orientation such that the first panel and the second panel are removably attached to the modular wall;
- a geometry defined by an edge of the first panel, an edge of the second panel, and an end face of the backer;
- and
- a mastic sealant comprising elastomeric properties, configured to adhere and conform to the geometry;
- wherein the sealant completely occupies the geometry and forms a seal configured to prevent an ingress or an egress of air, moisture, and contaminants.
