SUPERSEAL CJ-400 Chemical Resistant Butyl Waterstop Seal

Product Description

CORKJOINT SUPERSEAL CJ-400 Chemical Resistant Butyl Waterstop Seal is a specially formulated chemical & hydrocarbon resistant butyl waterstop seal for use in construction joints (non-moving joints) where a permanent flexible watertight seal is required.

SuperSeal CJ-400’s unique sealing compound acts as a sealing gasket to seal joints in concrete against the egress of liquids.

SuperSeal CJ-400 is ideal for use in horizontal and vertical construction joints for cast in-situ concrete structures.

Advantages

  • Fuel & Oil Resistant Waterstop Seal (refer to Chemical Resistance Data on Page 2).
  • Excellent adhesion and conformation to the joint surface.
  • Provides a permanent, flexible gasket seal inside the concrete joint.
  • Bonds to most types of surfaces including concrete, fiberglass, metal, plastic and
    aluminium. (Refer to CORKJOINT’s Installation Parameters)
  • Able to resist rain/wet conditions prior to the 2nd pour taking place.
  • Sealed joints will not shrink, harden or oxide upon ageing.
  • Low to high temperature workability: -7°C to +48°C Rugged service temperature: -34°C to +93°C
  • Can be used in conjunction with other waterstop systems as added benefit/protection to the
    structure and to the system. Consult CORKJOINT for their product recommendations and suitability.

Typical Installations

Superseal CJ-400 requires a minimum 50mm cover of concrete from the outside edge.

  1. Brush off any dust or debris from the surface where the Superseal CJ-400 is to be applied. Brush a coat of CJ-100 Adhesive 30mm wide onto the concrete surface and one coat to the surface of the Superseal CJ-400.
  2. Once both surfaces where the adhesive was applied are touch dry, with the use of your thumbs or heel
    of your hand, firmly press a continuous bead of Superseal CJ-400 into position, making sure you achieve full contact with the adhesive on the concrete surface. Do not stretch the Superseal CJ-400 when applying it into position.
  3. Use a neat, firm butt joint to join Superseal CJ-400 together and then knead the ends together to form a continuous uninterrupted gasket. This type of join is used for continuous placement of Superseal CJ-400 and for any intersection joints.
  4. Check to see that the Superseal CJ-400 has totally adhered to the concrete surface. If the surface is rough or irregular, you may need to use a firmer hand pressure to make sure that the Superseal CJ-400 has full contact with the surface. There must be no visible gaps under the Superseal CJ-400 after installation.
  5. The protective paper layer cover on the Superseal CJ-400 can be removed any time prior to the second pour of concrete taking place.
  6. Placement of the second pour of concrete can be applied once the CJ-100 Adhesive has dried. Upon pouring, make sure the concrete is properly compacted and vibrated around the Superseal CJ-400.
  7. For vertical construction joints and overhead applications, it may be necessary to also secure the Superseal CJ-400 with nails, placed approximately every 250mm apart. This is usually only required as extra security if you need to pour your concrete prior to the CJ-100 Adhesive drying completely.
