Hydrophillic Seal are an active sodium bentonite/butyl rubber-based water stop designed to stop water infiltration through the cast in place concrete construction joints by expanding upon contact with water to form a positive seal against the concrete. It also fills the cracks and pores on the concrete.

Usage

Used for concrete joints, and intersections of old and new concrete in the construction of pools, foundations, tunnels, manholes, retaining walls, garages, curtain walls, water deposits, water purification facilities and pipe penetrations into above-mentioned constructions.

Advantages

  • Easy to install by adhesive bonding, or casting into joint faces
  • Swelling properties unaffected by long-term wet/dry cycling
  • Tolerant of salts in concrete and groundwater
  • Sustains effective seal in wet conditions
  • Highly adaptable to accommodate complex joint shapes

Surface Preparation

The surface must be clean and dry. It must not be applied to wet, frozen, greasy or dusty surfaces, and under wet weather conditions. Firmly press the entire length of it onto concrete. In vertical and overhead applications, press for at least 15 seconds for perfect adherence. Make sure water stop covers all parts of the surface, especially for surfaces which are not perfect in shape. Use swell-fix primer when necessary. Put together coil ends side by side or end to end; do not overlap. Remove silicon paper and pour concrete carefully and indirectly.
