Visqueen Zedex High Bond DPC

Visqueen Zedex High Bond DPC is a high performance heavy duty DPC suitable for general cavity tray applications including parapet walls, beneath copings and cappings, in gas resistant DPC applications and complex detailing work at ground level. It can be torch bonded to masonry units and all laps are homogenously sealed during the torch bonding process. It is manufactured from a seamless roll of aluminium, bonded to a tough polyester carrier and coated with SBS modified bitumen, which is then finished with silica sand.

Benefits:

• Compatibility – It is compatible with all materials used within normal construction, with the exception of timber preservatives based on creosotes or tar oils, however it is unaffected by water based or salt solution timber preservatives.

• Durability – When correctly specified, detailed and installed, it will last the lifetime of the building provided it is not damaged by subsequent building operations.

• Compressive Strength – It is capable of withstanding the loading applied by brickwork, blockwork, or stonework walls up to three storeys.

Applications:

• Wet bedded coping stone and parapet wall applications where a low imposed load occurs but a high mortar bond is required. Reduces likelihood of slippage due to wind loading.

• Hot bonded detail work at complex cavity tray detailing. The product can be torch bonded together and heat sealed to primed concrete or steel columns using a gas torch.

• Torch bonded to primed reinforced concrete slabs and primed downturn concrete beams.

• Torch bonded to primed steel lintels reducing the risk of the DPC slipping forward during application of Pistol bricks.

• Ground level tanking applications when used in conjunction with Visqueen TorchOn Tanking Membrane.
