SIKA Abelflex Rod filler
Closed Cell Backer Rod (Abelrod)
An exceptionally strong and lightweight closed cell, polyethylene foam rod expansion joint and space filler.
Closed Cell.
Assists with joint design by providing a bond breaker and helping to determine the depth of the joint.
Excellent recovery properties enable Abelflex Rod filler to withstand many years of compression and expansion, ensuring a tight seal from dirt and water entry.
Ideal as a vertical and horizontal joint filler in concrete, masonry substrates between precast concrete panels, interior walls, sealing skylights, shop fronts and curtain wall construction.
Can also be used in areas such as swimming pools, in draft proofing, dust sealing, sealing electrical control boxes, truck and trailer construction and as piping around chairs.
