Swellable Waterstops
Swellable waterstops provide a pressure-tight seal for cast-in concrete construction and non-movement joints. Applied either by gunning or placement, these materials are designed to expand and prevent water from passing through concrete joints. At Illawarra Industrial Supplies, we offer a wide selection of high-quality swellable water stop products and have been proudly servicing the industry since 1980. We stock products from trusted, well-known brands, including Hydrotite, a premium-grade swellable water stop. For the full list of swellable waterstop products and brands we supply, see below.
Swellable Waterstops information
With over 120 years of experience and a highly trained team, we can provide you with the best possible guidance on choosing the right swellable waterstops.
Hydrotite, Leakmaster, and Sika Australia are all commonly used swellable waterstops. We supply these, along with many other high-quality alternatives and related products. See below for more details.
Swellable waterstops are placed on one face of the concrete joint prior to pouring the second face of the cast-in concrete.
Swellable waterstops are only used in construction joints (non-movement joints).
Some swellable waterstops are affected by salt or contaminated water. If the ground water is expected to be salty or highly contaminated, it is best to check that the waterstop chosen can perform.
