HYDROJOINT TAPE is a thermoplastic, elastic tape engineered for the treatment of expansion and construction joints and reinforcement of angles in water tanks, seamlessly integrating with waterproofing systems. Highly flexible and long-lasting, it offers superior resistance to chemical attack, especially in alkali environments, and can be applied to both dry and damp concrete surfaces. HYDROJOINT TAPE withstands extreme weathering, prevents deterioration over time, and maintains excellent flexibility for complex substrate conditions. Easy to install on both horizontal and vertical joints, it provides durable, chemical-resistant protection in even the most demanding environments.
Hydrojoint Tape is bedded into an adhesive layer of the liquid applied membrane used on the project, as part of a waterproofing system.

Standards and test methods as referenced in the Hydrojoint Tape Technical Data Sheet. Values in the TDS are typical laboratory results under standard conditions.
Hydrojoint Tape treats expansion and construction joints and reinforces angles in water tanks, as part of a waterproofing system. Uses include joints in channels, basins, wet areas, swimming pools and water pipes, and between substrates with different expansion or rigidity.
Application temperature is 5°C to 45°C and temperature resistance is -20°C to 90°C.
Yes. The TDS states it is suitable for application on dry and damp concrete, and on both horizontal and vertical joints.
Overlap and bond the tapes by at least 50 mm using hot or cold welding, after roughening the area with sanding paper. Test the welding temperature on a sample first.
It is available in 150, 200, 250 and 300 mm widths in 20 linear meter rolls. It can be used within 24 months of production if stored unopened in dry conditions away from direct sunlight.
