    Abstract: A sealant pouch system for adhering roofing shingles includes a plurality of pouches containing an adhesive with a viscosity of 25 cps to 2500 cps. Each pouch comprises an outer film that encases the adhesive and is configured to rupture when subjected to a sufficient force or a temperature above a predetermined threshold. The method of installation involves placing the pouches on the reveal portion of shingles in a first row, installing a second row of shingles to overlap the first row, and applying sufficient force to rupture the pouches, causing the adhesive to contact both the headlap and reveal portions of the shingles, thereby sealing the rows together. The pouches may have various shapes and are designed to prevent rolling or sliding off sloped roof decks.
