fischer’s Premium Sanitary Silicone (Sanitary Pro SI / DSSA) is a high-quality, acetate-curing silicone sealant supplied in a 310 ml cartridge (Joint Grey). It’s formulated specifically for wet-room and kitchen joints where long-term elasticity, mould resistance and good adhesion to smooth surfaces are critical. The sealant cures to a permanently elastic joint with excellent movement capability (permissible total deformation around 25%), contains a fungicide for long-term protection against mould, and is easy to apply and smooth — making it suitable for corner, connection and movement joints in bathrooms, kitchens and glazing installations.
Performance and material compatibility
This DSSA (acetate) sanitary silicone bonds reliably to tiles, glass, glazed ceramics, porcelain, metal, PVC and many coated surfaces without primer in most cases, preventing moisture penetration behind tiles and fixtures. Its ageing and weather resistance allow limited exterior use (e.g., window and display glass sealing) while its high abrasion resistance and good adhesion make it appropriate for heavily stressed joints — for example around shower trays, bathtubs, sinks and kitchen worktops.
Application & handling
The product comes in a 310 ml cartridge that fits standard caulking guns. Application is straightforward: cut nozzle to desired bead size, apply a steady bead, tool/smooth within the skin-time window and allow full cure (curing time depends on bead size and humidity). The formulation is noted for low odour during application and smooth finishing characteristics that reduce rework time. For best results, joint dimensions and backing material (e.g., foam rod) should follow standard joint design guidelines.
Safety & composition
Sanitary silicones of this type typically contain a preservative/fungicide (e.g., octhilinone / isothiazolinone derivatives) to inhibit mould growth — users with sensitivity to isothiazolinones should review the product’s safety data sheet prior to use. As an acetate-curing product, it releases a small amount of acetic acid during cure; avoid application on moisture-sensitive metals or certain natural stones unless manufacturer data confirm compatibility.
Why choose this product
- Designed and manufactured by a specialist construction-chemical brand with global availability.
- Long-term mould protection and permanent elasticity make it ideal for wet rooms.
- Good adhesion on smooth surfaces and high deformation capacity reduce joint failures and maintenance needs.
