Description
The ASI 174 10.2 oz cartridge holds white siliconized acrylic latex caulk from American Sealants, sized for a standard caulking gun. It’s the working size for installers running trim, backsplash, cabinet, and tub and tile joints that get painted, where a small tube would run out partway through the job. White ASI 174 goes on non-slump, cleans up with water while wet, and takes latex paint the same day. Made in the USA.
Part of the ASI 174 family. This is the white 10.2 oz cartridge. ASI 174 also comes in white and clear, in 10.2 oz cartridges and 5.5 oz squeeze tubes. See every ASI 174 size and color, with white and clear specs side by side and the full application steps.

Choosing the 10.2 oz Cartridge
- The cartridge carries nearly twice the material of the 5.5 oz squeeze tube, so you swap packages less often on longer runs.
- A caulking gun gives you trigger control over bead size, and the Newborn 250’s 18:1 thrust ratio pushes the bead steadily without a hard squeeze.
- Keep a few screw-on nozzles on hand. Cut a fresh tip for a different bead size without opening a new cartridge.
- White carries the ASTM C920 Class 12.5 and TT-S-00230C Class B approvals. If a submittal or spec sheet calls for ASTM C920, order white.
- Running production volume? Pails and drums are available by special request. Call us to set it up.
