A hydrophilic strip waterstop designed to stop water infiltration through cast-in-place concrete construction joints, by expanding upon contact with water to form a positive seal against the concrete.

Features and benefits:

Expands to seal and fill voids and cracks in the concrete.
Active waterstop designed to replace passive PVC/ Rubber dumbbell waterstops, thereby eliminating the requirement of special pieces, split-forming and seam welding.
Has been successfully tested by independent testing firms to over 60 meters of hydrostatic water pressure, under both continuous immersion and wet/ dry-cycling.
WATERSTOP-RX® 101 is produced in a rectangular shape measuring 25 x 20 mm and WATERSTOP-RX® 103 is produced in a rectangular shape measuring 20 x 10 mm.
Though WATERSTOP-RX® possesses good resistance to many chemicals, the waterstop is not intended to be used as the primary joint sealant for chemical containment vessels.
Consult manufacturer for guidance regarding chemical compatibility for secondary chemical containment applications.
Additionally, WATERSTOP-RX® is not an expansion joint sealant; contact CETCO for expansion joint applications.
Designed for reinforced structural concrete with a minimum of 20 N/mm² compressive strength.
RX-101 is designed for concrete 200 mm thick or greater with two rows of reinforcing steel.
RX-103 is designed for vertical concrete 150 mm thick or greater; and horizontal concrete no less than 100 mm thick. It should be used in concrete with one row of steel reinforcement, concrete curbs, planter walls, fountains and lightweight structural concrete.
Can be used around pipe and structural penetrations.
CETSEAL is required to secure WATERSTOPRX ® to metal or PVC (pipe) surfaces. Mechanical fixings should be used with REVO-FIX to secure WATERSTOP-RX; and fixings can be used in conjunction with CETSEAL.
WATERSTOP-RX® is not a self-adhering product. Either CETSEAL or REVO-FIX are required to secure WATERSTOP-RX® to concrete.
Mechanical fixings should not be used to secure WATERSTOP-RX alone. Do not use any other adhesive or construction sealant apart from CETSEAL to secure WATERSTOP-RX®.
WATERSTOP-RX® is not designed, nor intended to function as an expansion joint sealant. For precast concrete applications, contact manufacturer for product suitability and for any special installation requirements.
WATERSTOP-RX® products are designed for structural concrete with a minimum of 20 N/mm² compressive strength.
