An one-part polyurethane composition, including: A) 15-75 wt.-% of at least one isocyanate-functional polyurethane polymer; B) 5-30 wt.-% of at least one organic thixotropy agent; C) 2-25 wt.-% of at least one plasticizer having viscosity of less than 500 mPa s, measured at 0° C. with cone-plate viscosimeter, shear rate 10 s, cone angle 1°, spindle 25-2, and cone tip-plate distance of 0.05 mm; D) 0-15 wt.-% of at least one solvent; E) 0-50 wt.-% of at least one filler; F) at least one catalyst for curing of polyurethane compositions; wherein isocyanate-functional polyurethane polymer has NCO content in range of 0.8%-2.5% by weight and is obtained from reaction of methylene diphenyl diisocyanate (MDI) and polyol in NCO/OH ratio of at least 3/1 and subsequent removal of non-reacted MDI; and polyol has viscosity, measured according to ASTM D4878-15 at 25° C., of less than 2000 mPa s; and isocyanate-functional polyurethane polymer has remaining content of MDI of at most 0.5% by weight.
