FIBER EXPANSION JOINT

DESCRIPTION
ALCO Fiber Expansion Joint is composed of cellular fibers securely bonded together and uniformly saturated with asphalt to increase its longevity. It is non-extruding, resilient and when compressed to half its thickness, offers a minimum recovery of 70%.

USE
· Multi-purpose joint filler ideally suited for joints in sidewalks, driveways, streets, airport runways, highways, flatwork, etc.
· Ideally suited to give concrete ample room to expand and contract without creating damaging stresses

ADVANTAGES
· Versatile, resilient, flexible and non-extruding and offers a minimum of 70% recovery after compression
· Unaffected by temperature extremes 
· Lightweight, easy to use and available in sizes and shapes fabricated to most requirements
· Not sticky in summer or brittle in winter
· Easy to cut 
· Provides neat, finished joints requiring no trimming

APPLICATION
Fiber Expansion Joint filler is positioned against the forms, at interrupting objects or columns, and against abutting structures prior to the placement of concrete. The expansion joint should be installed ½” below the concrete surface. Thinner joints of ¼”, 3/8” and ½” spaced at frequent intervals offer greater control than thicker joints spaced at greater intervals. For maximum protection from water infiltration, weathering and to assure proper function, the joint should be sealed with a suitable sealer. 

NOTE: For ease in sealing Fiber Expansion Joint, Snap Cap can be used to give a uniform, debris free joint of proper configuration.
