Product Details

Product Application:

It is essential that there is at least 8 cm

It is essential that there is at least 8 cm coverage of concrete from the side exposed to water. Bond AQUAFIN-CJ6 with a mounting adhesive suitable for waterstops. Completely cover the prepared substrate with the mounting adhesive and press the AQUAFIN-CJ into the adhesive until it oozes out from beneath. Do not begin the concreting process for at least 8 hours after bonding.

Product Waterstop Connections:

Waterstop connections can be made

Waterstop connections can be made by overlapping by 50 mm or by butt jointing. The waterstops must be placed tightly together to prevent gaps. But jointed waterstops must be covered by a separate section of waterstop with a 30 mm overlap to both sections.
