Expansion joints play an important compensatory role during uneven shrinkage of the structure, sudden temperature changes, exposure to heavy loads, seismic activity and other loads. Thanks to them, the elasticity and stability of buildings increases.
The problem of sealing a technological cut in the structure of a building or structure can be solved by means developed for these purposes. Among them are putties of various types, waterstops, elastic bands, injection waterproofing and other materials.
The company "Penetron-Sochi" has developed a modern and technological method waterproofing joints - the use of Peneband waterproofing tape and special polymer one- and two-component adhesives PenePoxy.
Purpose and scope of application
The use of glue and tape allows you to achieve reliable tightness of sections of the structure consisting of individual elements. These materials are indispensable for protecting the surface of expansion joints and seams in concrete and reinforced concrete from the penetration of moisture, air, and pollution.
The following areas of application of the products can be distinguished:
- areas of floors of structural materials ;
- junctions between walls and floor;
- vertical and horizontal expansion joints in walls and on the floor.
Peneband waterproofing tape is widely in demand in construction building foundations, as well as concrete pool bowls. It can be used at the junctions of structural parts of various structures on the street and in unheated rooms.
Advantages of using waterproofing tape
Peneband C tape is a durable gray polyester fabric with a mesh structure filled thermoplastics. Thanks to this technological solution, it is able to maintain operational properties over a wide range of operating temperatures: from –30 °C to +70 °C. Other advantages of Peneband tape include:
- elasticity combined with softness, which simplifies the work of the master (the tape can withstand deformation in various directions);
- maintaining elasticity even at low temperatures ;
- resistance to chemicals;
- durability and resistance to ultraviolet radiation.
Peneband tape is adapted to the high-tech PenePoxy adhesive and demonstrates a high degree of adhesion during installation carried out according to the instructions.
