Centrally Placed PVC Waterstop
DESCRIPTION
Deltastop PVC waterstops are manufactured from a high quality virgin PVC compound which has been formulated to give excellent flexibility and durability. They are available as straight lengths and factory produced intersections. Deltastop PVC centrally placed PVC waterstops are suitable for use in contact with potable water. Deltastop PVC waterstops are extruded in various range of profiles.
USES
Basement and underground structure, dam, culvert, canal, bridge deck, swimming pool, reservoir, water tank, tunnel and subways, concrete roof and retaining wall.
ADVANTAGES
Flexible to accommodate movement, simple on site jointing, four bulbs profile for excellent performance, reinforced eyeleted for positive fixing, suitable for portable water usage.
SELECTION OF WATERSTOP SIZE
The appropriate waterstop width depends upon the concrete thickness. The width of waterstop should not be greater than the thickness of the concrete. Deltastop PVC has two types, namely for construction joints and expansion joints.
INSTALLATION GUIDELINES
Deltastop PVC should be installed by experience person so that they are securely held in their position while the concrete is being placed. Concrete must be fully compacted around the waterstops to ensure that no voids or porous area remain. The brass eyelets used for securing the waterstops are located outside the edge bulbs so as not to create water paths around the profile.
LIMITATION
Do not inhale fumes when splicing.
Do not expose to sunlight for extended periods.
