Pipe collars for waterproofing around penetrations. 12x12cm, flexible collar with band.

SUPERFLEX Collars are pre-formed flexible rubber collars designed to seal around pipes and penetrations passing through waterproofed surfaces. The 12x12cm collar compresses onto the pipe and bonds to the membrane.

What it's for

  • Sealing pipes, conduits and penetrations through waterproofed floors and walls
  • Works with all waterproofing membranes
  • Internal wet areas and external covered areas

Why waterproofers buy it

  • Pre-formed shape. No field fabrication needed
  • Flexible design seals various pipe diameters
  • Bonds to membrane and pipe without adhesive
  • Flexible band accommodates minor movement

Specs

12x12cm collar. Flexible rubber. For pipes 6 to 50mm diameter.

Not for

Large diameter pipes over 50mm, high-temperature applications, or areas subject to direct foot traffic.

Central elastic zone grips penetrations from 10 mm to 40 mm under its own recovery
Dual felt facings lock the collar inside the membrane from above and below
Pre-formed to a consistent size and shape, so the detail is repeatable rather than cut and dressed on site

Technical overview

FORSPEC SUPERFLEX COLLAR is a pre-formed thermoplastic elastomer waterproofing collar laminated with a felt bonding layer on both faces, for pipe and tap penetrations. A central elastic zone stretches from a 10 mm penetration up to 40 mm, so the collar grips the pipe under its own recovery. It is a detailing component and not a waterproofing membrane, so it carries no AS/NZS 4858 or AS 4654.1 classification. Compliance is established by the membrane system in which it is embedded, installed in accordance with AS 3740:2021 and the National Construction Code, or AS 4654.2-2012 for external above-ground work. No accredited test report is held; the performance figures are indicative Forspec R&D characteristics.

Key applications

  • Tap penetrations in bathrooms, laundries and kitchens
  • Shower outlets and plumbing fixture penetrations
  • Pipe penetrations through walls and floors
  • External wall service penetrations
  • Commercial wet areas and plant rooms
  • Any liquid membrane system requiring a pre-formed penetration detail

The membrane must be wet during embedment. Do not install into tacky, semi-dry, skinned or cured membrane, as the felt will not saturate and the collar will not bond. Not a membrane: the collar must be embedded within a liquid membrane system and is not designed for stand-alone use. Not a substitute for proper sealing of large gaps or voids, which must be filled with ACTFLEX 75FC or ACTFLEX MS PRO before the collar is installed. The pipe or penetration must be rigid and securely fixed. Do not stretch beyond the 40 mm expansion limit. Deburr the pipe and remove sharp edges that may puncture the collar. Not suitable for UV-exposed applications without protection. Not suitable for negative pressure waterproofing. Do not tile or cover until the membrane has reached full cure per the membrane TDS.

Frequently asked questions

View all FAQs
  • What are SUPERFLEX Tap Collars used for?
    Compatibility

    SUPERFLEX Tap Collars are pre-formed waterproofing collars that seal around taps, pipes, and wall penetrations in wet areas. The collar sits over the penetration and gets embedded into the liquid waterproofing membrane.

  • Specifications?
    Performance

    12cm x 12cm reinforced elastic membrane collar. Sized for 1/2 inch and 3/4 inch standard fixtures - covers the typical Australian residential plumbing penetration.

  • How are they installed?
    Installation

    Position the collar over the penetration, embed into the first coat of liquid membrane, smooth out any air pockets with a roller, then apply the second membrane coat over the collar flange. Tile or finish over the top.

  • Which membranes work with them?
    Compatibility

    Compatible with most liquid membranes and sheet systems including ACTFLEX 906 WPU, 929 HV/SL, 988 CWP, and 989 CWP. The collar reinforces the most leak-prone detail in any wet area.

  • Are they specified by Australian standards?
    Compliance

    AS3740:2021 requires penetrations to be sealed with a detailed waterproofing system. Pre-formed collars are the recommended professional method - more reliable than site-formed sealant collars.
