Jointstrip

Jointstrip is a fast, efficient and cost effective system for all brick and concrete expansion joints. It’s success is due in part to its multi-purpose closed cell Polyethylene foam which proves to be excellent for isolating structural components and forming joints in concrete slabs. Jointstrip is pre slit to allow a gap ideal for application of an appropriate joint filler. It comes in a range of sizes which are listed below.

100 x 10mm 100 x 20mm
150 x 10mm 150 x 20mm
175 x 10mm 175 x 20mm
200 x 10mm 200 x 20mm
250 x 10mm 250 x 20mm
300 x 10mm 300 x 20mm

An extremely versatile product, its typical applications have proven to be:

  • Expansion joints in floor slabs
  • Expansion joints in brickworks
  • Bond breakers between precast panels
  • Grout checks
  • Stop edge

The advantages of using Jointstrip can be succinctly summarised:

  • Extremely low moisture absorbency
  • Helps keep moisture from reaching the backside of the sealant
  • Not sticky in summer or brittle in winter
  • Readily accepts joint movement
  • Remains flexible
  • Less expensive than conventional joint fillers and easier to handle
  • Non-impregnated, non-staining, and nonbleeding ensures sustrates and sealants will not discolour
  • Compatible with cold-applied sealants
  • Easy to cut material
  • Reinforces sealant
  • User friendly installation
  • Environmentally friendly
  • Withstands concrete moisture
  • Easy to handle and ship
