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.

CRC Leak Detector is formulated for the quick detection of gas and air leaks. The water based formula contains no oils, silicones or harmful solvents. CRC Leak Detector quickly and reliably locates gas leaks and pressure losses in pipes and pressurised systems by forming highly visible bubbles when applied over any leak.
Recommended for use on refrigeration units, air conditioners, exhausts, pipes, welding seams and compressors, can be used for almost all types of gasses (compressed air, refrigerants, natural gas, propane, butane, acetylene, oxygen, LPG, nitrogen and carbon dioxide)
Finds leaks fast, highlights all leaks, even under low pressure. Non-flammable. Water based formula with no oils, silicones or harmful solvents.

Usage
Sikaflex®-221 bonds well to a wide variety of substrates and is suitable for making permanent elastic seals . Suitable substrate materials are metals, metal primers and paint coatings (2-component systems), ceramic materials and plastics. It is ideally used for internal sealing and simple bonding applications. Seek manufacturer’s advice and perform tests on original substrates before using Sikaflex®-221 on materials prone to stress cracking. This product is suitable for experienced professional users only. Test with actual substrates and conditions have to be performed to ensure adhesion and material compatibility.
