Waterstop Hydrophilic Rubber is a swellable waterproofing strip manufactured from a hydrophilic synthetic rubber compound that expands on contact with water to seal construction joints in reinforced concrete structures. Installed onto hardened concrete before the next pour, it becomes permanently encapsulated within the joint to help prevent water ingress. Ideal for basements, retaining walls, water tanks, swimming pools, lift pits, pipe penetrations, precast concrete, and other below-ground structures, it provides a simple, reliable, and economical waterproofing solution for construction joints with minimal movement.
