Aquastrip Sealing Strip for Precast Concrete Units
Aquastrip is a polymer-modified bituminous sealing strip for precast concrete units. Enabling flexible and watertight joints in precast concrete structures. It is compressed to half its size during application, providing a strong, elastic and permanent seal.
Aquastrip - For sealing joints in Manhole Rings and Box Culverts
Aquastrip is a flexible, watertight sealing strip for precast, designed for the perfect sealing of concrete joints. It’s used in many different types of precast unit including box-culverts and all sizes of manhole ring. Tested to international standards, Aquastrip is easy to apply and ensures durable sealing, even under high pressure. Aquastrip is frequently specified on large infrastructure projects and a draft specification is available at NBS Source.
Aquastrip is an easy to use and cost-effective sealing strip for precast. It is formulated for greater flexibility (even at low temperatures) and has unrivalled technical properties, with high temperature stability, elongation and adhesion.
Aquastrip is a polymer modified, bituminous compound, incorporating temperature extenders. It is supplied in roll form and is simply rolled out on site and applied to one side of the concrete joint. The second concrete unit is then placed against the first and the joint compresses to approx. half it’s original size, creating a strong and flexble joint seal. Aquastrip can be used in conjunction with KOSTER KBE Primer for increased adhesion.
Tested to BS, EN, ISO, DIN and ASTM Standards, Aquastrip provides a flexible and watertight joint sealing against pressures in excess of 5.0 bar. Aquastrip ensures your joints remain watertight, even after settlement.
