HYDROTITE

Product: Hydrotite
Product description: Hydrotite is easy to handle and install and has excellent adhesion to concrete surfaces. Delay coating prevents expansion from moisture during the second pour, during curing or if the joint becomes ponded during construction. It has a co-extruded design, which means the expansion is directed across the joint for maximum seal. In addition, compaction and displacement are not an issue and ability to withstand repeated wet-dry cycles means long-term joint integrity is protected. In the case of water-contact and subsequent expansion, change in colour of the product allows for quick visual inspection. There is no requirement for split forming and joining is by simple butt join. It can be joined to traditional PVC waterstop or applied to rough surfaces using Leakmaster gun grade waterstop. It is non-toxic and non-hazardous.

Benefits:

• Easy to handle and install
• Excellent adhesion to concrete surfaces
• Outstanding physical properties – capable of swelling approximately 8 times by volume
• Profiles with self-adhesive backing allow for simple and fast installation processes
• Co-extruded design means expansion is directed across the joint for maximum seal
• Unaffected by repeated wet and dry cycles
• No site welding is required for joining processes
• Has a delay coating to help prevent premature expansion
• Extra delay coating is available for very wet conditions, if required
• Changes colour as a visual alert to let you know it has expanded
• No need for special intersections, joining is by simple butt joins
• Can be applied to rough surfaces using Leakmaster gun grade waterstop
• Can be joined to traditional PVC waterstop
