Fosroc Limited Hand-applied Bitumen Putty Plastijoint

Plastijoint is a thermoplastic bitumen based putty which requires heating to make it workable. On cooling it gives a slump-free, flexible seal. Plastijoint is suitable for immersed joints including those where biological activity occurs. Plastijoint is suitable for sealing joints, including low movement expansion joints, in retaining walls and basements. It is also suitable for sealing around pipe or cable entries into buildings. Plastijoint may be applied to joints between 20 and 40 mm wide. In most cases it is advisable to form a sealing slot approximately square in cross-section. Where expansion joints are subject to hydrostatic head, Plastijoint seals require support from a compressible filler such as Hydrocell.
