M-1® Universal Adhesive/Sealant is Chem Link’s flagship polyether product. Designed for bonding and sealing a wide variety of building materials, it can be used on PVC, EPDM, most metals, wood, glass, masonry concrete, fiberglass and solvent sensitive foams. It works in almost any situation that requires a kit. In addition, M-1 is a solvent-free, versatile product with the ability to form a tight, watertight seal on most roofing materials.
M-1 is typically used for flashing, coping, skylights, and HVAC applications, as well as an emergency repair kit for temporary leak repair. It delivers a shear strength of nearly 400 psi and remains elastic after curing – up to 525% elongation, so it also acts as a structural adhesive.

- Commercial Roofing – Flashing and capping joints, sealing Reglet joints and sealing bars, tight sealing around penetrations, bonding walkways and just about all emergency roof repairs.
- Residential Roofing – Chimney and step flashing, skylights, roofing details, cove joints.

Following Chem Link’s commitment to sustainability, M-1 is safe for workers, residents and the environment. What does that mean?
- It is non-toxic, so there is no need to clear the building when working with Chem Link’s green products.
- There are no carcinogens, so it is safe for all building users.
