What is Dual Seal waterstop?
DUAL SEAL WATERSTOP is a bentonite based waterstop or bar which reacts on contact with water by swelling to form a watertight seal in concrete structures. The product must be fully confined within the concrete structure to form an effective seal. It is primarily used to waterproof construction joints and penetrations in underground reinforced concrete structures. The product is not suitable for use in expansion or movement joints.
