HYPER
SEAL DP-Series
|
A
complete Range of High Performance Hydrophilic Waterstop
|
Uses
|
|
|
Hydrophilic waterstop can be
applied against exciting concrete and are simply installed
by nailing or using a hyprophilic adhesive. In contact
with water, hydrophilic strips react and swell by up
to 300% of their original dimensions to form a compression
seal. Hydrophilic strips are suitable for
installation in low movement construction joints.
HYPER SEAL is used primarily for foundation walls
slabs, slabs-on-grade, precast wall panels, manholes,
pipe connections, box culverts, utility and wells, and
portable water tank

Benefits
|
|
Active protection - HYPER SEAL hydrophilic
waterstop swell in contact with water to form an effective
compression joints. Simple appilication and jointing
techniques. Slow expansion rate to prevent damage
to freshly placed concrete during curing. Ratains
original shape after repeated expansion and contraction. Swelling
properties unaffected by long term wet/dry cycling.
Sustains
effective seal in wet conditions.

Description
|
|
HYPER SEAL is made high
perfomance modified rubber strips. The swelling action
is the result between water and hydrophilic groups which
are part of the HYPER SEAL molecular structure. Expansion
of the waterstop creates a positive seal against the
face of the concrete joint and prevents the water entry
into the structure through the protected joint.

Installation
|
|
Where the substrate is uneven,
HYPER SEAL can be fastened in place using masonry nails
at approx. 300mm centers. Care should be taken however
to ensure that the subtrate has sufficient strength
to enable a mechanical fixing to be securely driven
without damaging the HYPER SEAL. Alternatively, a
groove can be cast into concrete to facilitate application.
HYPER
SEAL is suitable for use in most weather conditions,
but heavy rain or prolonged immersion will cause premature
swelling. Should this occur, it will be necessary th
allow it to dry out, or be dried with a hot air gun
before concrete pouring takes place. HYPER SEAL DP-2010
and HYPER SEAL DP-2010N should not be used in expansion
joints, or any concrete section of less than 150mm width.
