Description
Features and benefits:
- Matches the height of a standard perp joint, but has a reduced front section (beak) shaped to be almost indistinguishable from the mortar joint.
- The beak is finished in glass-clear polypropylene, and successfully merges with all colours of mortar and masonry making the beak weep unobtrusive and difficult to detect.
- The discharge outlet is on the beak underside, permitting water and particle debris to wash through and drop from the outlet.
- Discreet unobtrusive appearance.
- Protected against direct wind entry.
- Insect resistant.
- Direct uniform evacuation path.
