Expansion Joints Filler Cork Expansion Joint Filler is preformed from clean, granulated cork
particles, bonded together with an insoluble phenolic resin and molded
under heat and pressure. The resultant material is strong, light in
weight, flexible, acid-resistant and waterproof. Cork will not extrude
when compressed up to 50 percent of its original thickness, and regains
up to 95 percent as joint expansion takes place.
Expansion joints fillers principally accompany the movement of the
materials. They are used to suppress the effects of thermal variations
in concrete structures. Expansion joints filler neutralize the
phenomenon of expansion and contraction, which are frequently
encountered in concrete constructions. The joint fillers manufactured
by us are thus an excellent protection against cracks.
