Frequently asked questions
-
What makes Hydrotite different from PVC waterstops?
ApplicationHydrotite is a self-adhesive, co-extruded hydrophilic rubber strip that swells when wet to seal the joint. There is no site welding, no special intersections and it can be bonded to rough surfaces or even to existing PVC waterstops.
-
How is Hydrotite installed?
ApplicationPeel the release film and press the strip onto a clean, dry construction joint surface. On rough or uneven concrete, bed it with Leakmaster LV-Z gun-grade waterstop. Lengths are simply butt-joined.
-
Will Hydrotite expand prematurely if the joint gets wet during construction?
PerformanceThe delay coating slows the initial swell so the strip can be cast in without premature expansion. It also performs reliably through repeated wet/dry cycles in service.
-
Is Hydrotite compatible with drinking water?
CompatibilityYes. Hydrotite is certified to AS 4020:2018 for products in contact with drinking water, making it suitable for water tanks, reservoirs and treatment plants.
-
Is Hydrotite safe to handle?
SafetyYes. It is non-toxic and non-hazardous, with no site welding or solvents required. Standard construction PPE is sufficient.
