VANDEX Construction Joint Tape – 180mm x 30m

Vandex Construction Joint Tape is a synthetic rubber strip, approximately 0.7 mm thick which bridges and seals construction joints and cracks in concrete structures.

• Economical and Safe
• Can be Applied on a Damp Substrate
• Resistant to Hydrostatic Pressure
• Permanently Flexible
• Can be Bonded to Concrete Surfaces with VANDEX BB 75 E Waterproofing Slurry

Typical Applications of Vandex Construction Joint Tape:

Bridging construction joints and cracks in concrete structures

Vandex Construction Joint Tape is used in conjunction with Vandex BB75-E elasticised waterproofing slurry (this is formed by mixing Vandex BB75 powder with Vandex PK75 liquid).

Vandex BB75-E is applied to the substrate to form an elasticised adhesive for the Construction Joint Tape. The Construction Joint Tape is then embedded into the Vandex BB75-E. A second coat of Vandex BB75-E is then applied over the Construction Joint Tape.

Uses:

Vandex Construction Joint Tape, in combination with Vandex 
BB75E-Z or Cemelast flexible waterproofing slurry, forms an 
excellent and durable seal of construction joints and cracks, 
in damp concrete conditions.

Areas of application:

Construction joints and cracks. 

Construction Joint Tape is resistant to hydrostatic pressure:

• on the positive side

• on the negative side only with appropriate support

   

On the negative side movement cracks should be routed out first and filled with Vandex Uni Mortar. Water leaks should be waterproofed with Vandex Plug first.

Chemical Resistance:

Vandex Construction Joint Tape offers resistance to salt solutions, dilute acids and alkali solutions; low resistance to mineral oils, benzenes and strong solvents

• Material: synthetic rubber
• Thickness [mm]: approx. 0.7
• Total width [mm]: approx. 180
• Width of fabric web [mm]: approx. 30
• Elongation at lateral failure: 260 %
• Water vapour diffusion resistance index: 45‘000

All data is averaged from several tests under laboratory conditions.

Storage:

When stored dry in unopened, undamaged original packaging shelf life is unlimited (optimum storage conditions: 20 °C / 50 % relative humidity).
