ARDEX WPM 1955 - Hydrophilic Rubber Joint for Salt Water locations

ARDEX WPM 1955 is a hydrophilic, swelling, polymeric rubber joint for use in areas of brakish, saline or briny salt water. Due to its particular chemical composition, ARDEX WPM 1955 hydrophilic rubber joint remains unaltered over time even at maximum expansion. It is dimensionally stable even after numerous hydration and dehydration cycles while maintaining its ability to increase its volume.

At maximum expansion, in all its sections, ARDEX WPM 1955 is mechanically strong and elastic. The swelling process is controlled and designed to be compatible with fresh concrete.

• Specifically designed for marine environments
• Non-greasy, non-sticky, odourless and non-toxic
• Excellent for applications to rough concrete surfaces
• No premature expansion; allows concrete to gain strength
• before expansion
• Easy to install by bonding, nailing or casting into joint faces with the aid of
• ARDEX CA20P
• Solves detailing problems in construction
• Excellent performance - Swelling properties unaffected by long term
• cyclic wetting and drying; limited loss of integrity of waterstop
• Maintains effective seal in wet conditions
