It shouldn't set hard if it's still in the tube plus there should be a small cone cover that fits over the nozzle to avoid it going hard anyway. I have had a tube of 'Seamseal CV' which is the same as Sikaflex for about 5 years now and had to use it about 6 months ago but the sealant inside was still useable. If you are using a triggered application gun then you also need to press the release trigger off after each individual run of sealant application to terminate the pressure from within the tube.

Hi sikaflex will set hard, also even without opening as it has a short shelf life check this date on the cartridge before you buy it. once used remove nozzle clean out nozzle with a bit of rag and a stick, then put a piece of polythene over end of cartridge and screw nozzle back on to make a seal. but it wont keep for long.

Cling film wrapped over around the end makes an air tight seal.
I found that works....
