EXPAND-Tite Installation Instructions

Poured-In-Place Concrete Structures

1. Carefully brush-off all dust and debris and apply a coat of an appropriate EXPAND-Tite primer to the area where the EXPAND-Tite Waterstop is to be placed on the standing structural member.

2. Using moderate hand pressure, with the heel of the hand, press a continuous bead of EXPAND-Tite Waterstop firmly into position on the standing structure. Check to be certain that the sealant has bonded to the primed area.

3. Peel the protective backing from the exposed side of the EXPAND-Tite Waterstop. Knead the overlapped ends together to form a continuous, uninterrupted gasket.

4. Pour the mating structural member into position.
Precast Concrete Structures

1. Carefully brush off all loose dust and dirt.

2. Always use an appropriate EXPAND-Tite primer product on both mating surfaces.

3. Apply EXPAND-Tite Waterstop to lap joint or tongue & groove joint in the location where the maximum compression is expected to occur.

4. Using moderate hand pressure, with the heel of the hand, press a continuous bead of EXPAND-Tite Waterstop firmly into position on the structure.

5. Remove the protective backing and knead overlapped ends together to form a continuous, uninterrupted gasket.

6. Assemble mating precast structures into position.
