Vandex Construction Joint Tape

Vandex Construction Joint Tape, in combination with Vandex BB75 E elasticised waterproofing slurry forms and excellent and durable seal for construction joints and cracks.
Vandex Construction Joint Tape is a synthetic rubber strip, approximately 0.8 mm thick. It is covered on both sides with an alkali-resistant and flexible polyester fabric mat, which forms a web on the edges.
Application Layers

Vandex Construction Joint Tape is applied as follows:
- A bed of Vandex BB75 E slurry is applied in a strip at least 20 cm wide over the construction joint.
- Vandex Construction Joint Tape is rolled out over the BB75 E slurry (as shown in the picture). The fabric edges of the Vandex Construction Joint Tape are then embedded into the BB75 E.
- A second coat of BB75 E is then applied over the Vandex Construction Joint Tape.
Benefits of using Vandex Construction Joint Tape include:
- Tested for joint openings up to 5 mm
- Can be applied on a damp substrate
- Resistant to hydrostatic pressure.
- Permanently flexible
