Radflex WF Series: Download Data Sheet
Resin Bonded Expansion Joint
WF series
WF expansion joints are comprised of a very low toxicity epoxy-polyurethane elastomeric concrete which holds in place a Santoprene seal. This Santoprene seal is heat weldable ensuring watertight joints. This type of design provides a long lasting, waterproof joint, which is also pedestrian friendly, and yet is suitable for a wide range of movements. This system can be applied without the use of complicated heating and curing devices. The WF Expansion Joint System is suitable for indoor and outdoor parking decks.
Preparation
A rebate should be formed in the concrete deck to accommodate the WF joint. The concrete shoulders should be smooth and level across the expansion gap. We do not recommend application of this joint system to light weight or sand and cement screed.
