Application

Can be used as an adhesive for bonding waterbars or as a problem-solving hydrophilic waterstop in difficult access areas including:

  • Sealing around joints in precast manhole covers, cable ducts and pipes etc.
  • Sealing around precast segments.
  • Sealing between rough surfaces eg slurry walls and concrete slabs.
  • Sealing around H-beams and other penetrations through concrete structures.
  • Sealing around conventional rubber and plastic waterstops to provide ‘belt and braces’ seal prior to concrete pour.

Description

A grey, elastomeric, water-swellable paste which is applied like a sealant. The hydrophillic properties display good consistency in swell rate during repeated wet/ dry cycling. Expansion of the product on contact with water creates a positive pressure against the faces of the concrete joint, thus preventing the passage of water.


Features and benefits:

  • Fast curing: Enables early concete pour and rapid return to service. Allows hand-applied concrete cover within 2 hours on emergency repairs and large-scale concrete pour after 8 hours.
  • Seal on rough concrete: Gives improved water tightness. Plugs inequalities in rough concrete to produce a tight seal.
  • Adhesion: Quick and easy to apply to a variety of uneven joint surfaces remaining firmly in place during concrete pour.
  • Water swellable: Expands by 200% producing a watertight compression seal.
  • Durable: Excellent wet/ dry cycling retaining elastomeric character and swelling performance due to high tolerance of the cementitious environment.
