Product catalog summary
Product Characteristics & Benefits
TENSA®GRIP expansion joints, specifically types RS and RS-LS, are designed for robust performance in bridges with heavy traffic. They consist of steel edge profiles and a replaceable elastomeric seal, suitable for both asphalted and concreted surfaces. These joints can handle movements up to 80 mm, extendable to 200 mm with special profiles. The RS-LS type includes 'sinus plates' to reduce noise by up to 80% and increase movement capacity to 100 mm.

Types of Expansion Joints
- RS-B: For concreted roads, anchored by horizontal studs.
- RS-LS: Features noise-reducing sinus plates, allowing 100 mm movement.
- RS-A: For asphalted roads with surfacing thicknesses between 50 and 300 mm, includes flanges for waterproofing membrane connection.

Specifications & Options
Materials used include S235 steel for edge profiles and S355 steel for sinus plates. Corrosion protection follows ISO 12944 standards. The sinus plates not only reduce noise but also allow safe crossing for motorcycles and bicycles. The joints are 100% watertight, with replaceable sealing profiles.

Installation & Quality
The joints are pre-assembled and installed with precision, ensuring watertightness. mageba's quality system is ISO 9001:2008 certified, with regular inspections by independent institutes. The system has national approvals in several countries.
