Emseal Colorseal-on-a-Reel
Short Description
Silicone-coated, pre-compressed, primary seal for rapid installation into small vertical and horizontal joints
A building joint sealant, Colorseal-On-A-Reel (COR) is a cost-effective version of EMSEAL’s industry-standard Seismic Colorseal precompressed primary seal shipped on a reel for rapid installation into small joints. It ensures watertightness in vertical or horizontal structural and abutment joints in virtually any substrate. Reel-packaging, in contrast to ‘stick’ packaging: reduces waste, lowers production costs, makes handling easier, and installation rapid. Colorseal-On-A-Reel is a tensionless solution to small joint sealing and is half the price of similarly sized ‘stick’ Colorseal. Its installed-cost makes COR a cost-effective alternate to ‘caulk and backer rod’. And COR not only seals out water, it seals out air, heat, cold, and sound as well.
Colorseal-On-A-Reel replaces traditional liquid sealant and backer rod in the typical “caulk and backer rod” configuration that relies for performance on the difficult-to-achieve ‘hour-glass’ shape. In doing so, COR eliminates the primary reason for sealant joint failure – tension – at the bondline and within the cured liquid sealant. COR installs rapidly and eliminates many of the myriad steps required to achieve a neat, functioning joint seal using liquid sealant and backer rod. No grinding, priming, backer rod insertion, masking, mixing, or tooling.
