    Applications
    • Flexible waterproofing seal for expansion joints subject to large amount of movements in
    service.
    • Flexible waterproofing seals in tunnels, road-works, etc.
    • Sealing expansion joints in prefabricated panels.
    • Sealing structural joints in facades.
    • Sealing joints in hydraulic works, such as channels, basins, drains, pipe-works.
    • Waterproofing expansion joints in flat covering layers.

    Advantages
    • Extremely flexible and easy to install,
    • Suitable for both dry and damp concrete surfaces.
    • Performs well within a wide range of temperatures.
    • Weather / water / root / mild chemical resistant.
    • Suitable for contact with potable water.
    • Versatile system suitable for many difficult situations.

    Application Methodology
    • Remove all loose gravel, dirt, oil, grease and foreign matter by jet of dry air and clean the
    surface mechanically or by grinding to make it smooth before application.
    • Choose the most suitable width of ShaliTape® Flex.
    • Unroll the tape until the desired length is reached.
    • Apply ShaliBond TPE on both side of the joint, 20 mm on each side for 100 mm width tape at
    the rate of 800 gm / m2. For 200 mm tape adhesive should be coated 25 mm on each side of
    the joint or crack.
    • Place the tape over the adhesive layer in a way such that 10 mm adhesive remained
    exposed. Press the tape slightly to ensure good adhesion.
    • Apply 2nd coat of adhesive at the rate of 800 gm / m2 over the tape in such a way that tape
    upper surface is coated with adhesive for 10mm and rest adhesive is put on the exposed
    adhesive surface coated first.
    • Gap between two coats should be minimum 3 hrs and maximum 18hrs
    • Do not applying when it is raining, freezing or snowing.

    Cleaning & Maintenance
