SealArm Tape TPE

High performance Expansion Joint
sealing system TECHNICAL DATA SHEET

Product Description

SealArm Tape TPE is a thermoplastic high igh performance water proofing Joint Tape for expansion and connection joints
and cracks. It is to be installed with ReArm Bond 4031
4031. When fixed to the joint, it allows irregular and high movement in
more than one direction, whilst maintaining a high quality seal.
