How CT1 Revolutionised Sealing and Bonding Underwater

Last updated: October 21, 2024

Most conventional adhesives and sealants fall short when sealing and bonding materials, especially in challenging environments like underwater. However, CT1 has revolutionised this space with its unique ability to bond and seal underwater, making it the go-to solution for professionals across various industries. CT1’s groundbreaking formula offers strength, durability, and ease of application in the wettest conditions, from pools and boats to plumbing repairs.
However, what makes CT1 the number one sealant and adhesive in the UK is more than its underwater capabilities. It’s a versatile solution that works on virtually any material in various applications without needing additional fixings.


Introducing CT1’s New TRIBRID® Technology

When CT1 was first launched, it became an industry game-changer. Its original hybrid polymer formulation set a new standard for bonding and sealing materials. Yet, the developers at C-Tec didn’t stop there. Their Research and Development team has introduced TRIBRID® technology, an innovation that surpasses the original formula in every way. This cutting-edge formulation enables CT1 to outperform all other sealants and adhesives on the market, even those attempting to imitate its hybrid technology.
The new TRIBRID® technology has strengthened CT1 and expanded its range of applications while maintaining its environmentally friendly profile. With over 25 accreditations, CT1 remains the world’s leading construction adhesive and sealant, called by many Ct1 miracle seal.

Real-World Applications of CT1’s Underwater Sealing Power

CT1’s ability to seal and bond underwater has made it indispensable in numerous industries. With the added strength of TRIBRID® technology, its range of uses has expanded even further:

Swimming Pool Repairs

For pool repairs, CT1, also known as CT1 Leak Sealer, offers a solution that avoids the costly and time-consuming process of draining the pool. Its underwater bonding ability immediately repairs cracks, leaks, and loose tiles. With TRIBRID® technology, these repairs are stronger, more durable, and ensure long-lasting results without significant disruption. Whether dealing with minor leaks or more extensive damage, CT1 Leak Sealer provides a reliable and efficient solution to keep pools in optimal condition.

Marine and Boat Maintenance

Marine environments require robust solutions that withstand constant exposure to water, including saltwater. CT1’s underwater bonding makes it ideal for marine repairs, from hull leaks to submerged equipment. TRIBRID® technology enhances its performance in salt-water environments, offering strong, watertight seals that ensure boats remain in optimal condition without being removed.

Plumbing Fixes

Plumbing often involves working in wet or submerged areas where water flow cannot always be stopped. CT1’s ability to seal and bond in wet conditions, including underactive water pressure, makes it perfect for plumbing repairs. With TRIBRID® technology, the bond is stronger and more reliable, eliminating leaks quickly and efficiently.
