Waterproofing strip for static joints
BATIMIX Joint Tape 550 is an alkali-resistant and flexible fabric. It provides a permanent waterproof seal over static joints and cracks on either the positive or negative side of a substrate, where water is a problem. It is characterized by an easy to peel siliconized release liner.
BATIMIX Joint tape 550 strongly adheres to materials such as concrete, plasterboards, and ceramic. It generally adheres well to smooth-surface materials. It is a self-adhesive sealing tape or pad consisting of a butyl-rubber adhesive compound protected by a Polypropylene Fleece. The non-Woven Fleece allows the tape to seal and conform over the joint. It is compatible with common glues, cement, and non-cement based adhesives. It is highly adhesive even at low temperatures, to all materials and especially to plastic, glass, steel, polycarbonate, and wood. It is ideal for use underwood and ceramic coverings.
BATIMIX Joint tape 550 is compatible with most bitumen products supplied on the market.
It must be protected from UV rays.
It is available in tape or pad with various sizes for multipurpose applications.
