External | Internal 10 - 150 mm ( 3/8” - 6” ) Expansion Gaps General Information Product Applications Elastatec 1400 is suitable for a wide range of non-trafficable applications across virtually all joint types and meets the most stringent demands of joints with expansion and compression factors up to +/-50% of expansion gap width. In the shear plane Elastatec 1400 will accommodate in excess of 25% of gap width. Elastatec tape is supplied in the following roll lengths and with the minimum order quantities: Areas of Application Designed for sealing expansion joints, control joints, isolation joints...

method statement application Measure Measure required distance based on the width of Elastatec tape shown in the table below. Product Tape Width Adhesive Width (each side)mm Plumb line Create plumb line based on the required measurment.

method statement application Prepare Surface To obtain the best sealing results, correct joint tape sizing and pre-treatment of the bonding surfaces is required. Friable concrete substrates must be prepared by grinding, sandblasting or wire brushing. Spalling, rust and all coatings on metal must be removed by sandblasting or grinding. At the time of gluing, the bonding surfaces must be clean, free of oil and grease, dry and free of substances that could prevent adhesion. Mask Edges Mask the outer edges of the bonding surface.

method statement application Apply Primer Apply Elastatec Primer. Elastatec B1 Primer is designed for porous surfaces. Elastatec S2 Primer is used for non-porous substrates Apply Adhesive For gaps up to 100mm wide apply a seam of Elastatec TK 51 adhesive to the primed surfaces either side of the gap. For gaps >100mm wide apply a seam of Elastatec TC 30S adhesive to the primed surfaces either side of the gap.

method statement application Apply Elastatec Tape Carefully apply Elastatec tape ensuring that it is affixed centrally between the taped surfaces. Remove Protective Backing Peel back and remove the white protective backing.

method statement application Roll Sides Using a small roller carefully roll the ribbed sides of the Elastatec tape to ensure embedment in the adhesive. Apply the roller in an outward direction towards the edges of the tape to achieve a smooth consistent finish and to prevent any excess adhesive entering the underlying gap. Remove Excess Adhesive Using a scraper remove any excess adhesive.

method statement intersections Apply Tape Apply a patch of builders tape across the junction as shown. This will prevent adhesive entering the gap. Apply Adhesive For gaps up to 100mm wide apply a seam of Elastatec TK 51 adhesive to the primed surfaces either side of the gap. For gaps >100mm wide apply a seam of Elastatec TC 30S adhesive to the primed surfaces either side of the gap.
