Water Swelling Waterstop

 
Water Swelling Waterstop is also known as composite rubber waterstop. The main composition of water-swelling waterstop is a combination of ordinary rubber waterstop and water-swelling strips. On the wing plates on both sides of the rubber waterstop, the two single-sided ribs on each side or four double-sided ribs are replaced with water-swelling rubber material. This type of rubber waterstop will swell slowly when it comes into contact with water, thereby combining more tightly with the concrete it touches and generating greater water resistance pressure. When water leakage occurs at construction joints, the water first reaches the waterstop and is blocked by it, then flows down along both wings. When it encounters the water-swelling strips on both sides, the strips will swell upon contact with water to block the water from further seeping into the interior of the building, thus achieving a better water-stopping effect.
Common names for Water Swelling Waterstop include: Swellable rubber waterstop bar; Water expansion sealing tape; Swellable Waterstop Bar; Water-swellable rubber waterstop; Hydro-expanding Rubber Waterstop; Water-swelling seal; Water-swelling waterstop, etc.

Product Advantage


◆◆ Water-swellable rubber waterstop have the following advantages:

1. Superior waterproof performance: Upon contact with water, water-swellable rubber waterstops can swell on their own, forming a tighter bond with concrete to effectively prevent water penetration. They feature a high expansion ratio and strong mobile compensation performance, enabling them to automatically seal new gaps caused by settlement.


2. Strong adaptability: They can be used under various climatic conditions and component scenarios. They adapt to structural deformation, ensuring safe and reliable water stopping.


3. Good durability: They possess excellent chemical resistance and durability, contain no harmful substances, and are environmentally friendly without pollution.


4. Convenient construction: The cross-section adopts a non-uniform thickness structure, divided into a strength zone, a waterproof zone, and an installation zone, ensuring uniform force distribution. The installation zone is equipped with mounting holes for easy and secure fixation and positioning.


5. Economic efficiency: For water leakage in gaps of completed projects, waterstops can be used for re-sealing. The construction cost is low, and the process is simple.


6. Wide application range: They are suitable for various concrete structures, such as water-retaining dams, reservoirs, subways, culverts, tunnels, and other underground engineering projects, solving the problem of water leakage in deformation joints and construction joints.


Technical Parameters


Product Uses


◆◆ Application Scenarios of Water-swellable rubber waterstop:

1. Underground Engineering: It can be widely applied in various types of concrete structures, such as underground projects including water retaining dams, water storage tanks, subways, culverts, and tunnels.


2. Construction Engineering: In some construction projects, deformation joints or construction joints are often left during casting due to reasons such as inability to perform continuous casting, foundation deformation, or thermal expansion and contraction of concrete components caused by temperature changes. The anti-leakage of these joints needs to be solved by using rubber waterstops.


3. Water Conservancy Engineering: Such as water-retaining dams and water conveyance aqueducts, to prevent water leakage.


4. Sewage Treatment Engineering: In sewage treatment projects, it can be used to prevent sewage leakage and protect the environment.


5. Swimming Pools: Structures requiring waterproofing, such as swimming pools, can also use water-swellable rubber waterstops to ensure waterproofing effects.


In summary, It applied in various scenarios waterproofing. Its unique water-swellable property makes them an effective solution to leakage problems.


Product Operate Guide


◆◆ Construction Methods for Water Swelling Waterstop:

1. First, conduct acceptance inspection and re-testing for the incoming water-swellable rubber waterstop materials.


2. Set up pre-reserved grooves at the designed positions for the water-swellable rubber waterstops. The width and depth of the reserved grooves should correspond to the width and height of the water-swellable rubber waterstops.


3. Before pouring the next batch of concrete, place the water-swellable rubber waterstops into the grooves. Ensure that the joint positions are properly lapped and fixed with cement nails.


4. After the water-swellable rubber waterstops are securely fixed and pass the supervision acceptance inspection, concrete pouring can proceed.


5. After the pouring is completed, the water-swellable rubber waterstops will swell to play a water-stopping role.
