DESCRIPTION
Hydrophilic expandable rubber section for watertight construction joints.
Available in 60m rolls. 20x10mm.
Technical Description
Idrostop is a pre-formed rubber profile, with an acrylic polymer base specially designed to form watertight construction joints in construction up to a hydraulic pressure of 5 atm.
Idrostop does not contain bentonite.
Unlike other materials that tend to lose efficiency following repeated cycles of expansion and contraction, Idrostop maintains its properties unchanged even in the presence of aggressive water such as salt water (sea water), and water in sewage treatment plants and sewers.
Idrostop is stable at temperatures between –30°C and +50°C.
Areas of Use
For creating water tight construction joints in civil, industrial, and hydraulic construction.
Some application examples
· Waterproof joints between concrete beds and elevation walls.
· Contact joints between different types of materials, e.g. PVC or steel tubing going through poured concrete in
swimming pools, sewage-treatment tanks, reservoirs, and hydraulic projects in general.
· Waterproof construction joints where conventional water-stop cannot be installed easily and securely because of the
high density of the reinforcing.
· Waterproof construction joints in tunnels, dams and hydraulic projects including reservoirs for drinking water.
