Properties of the Adhesive used in Batex Expansion Joints
Each of the components have thier own characteristics, which combined with an extensive manufacturing process, produce an Expansion Joint which minimises the risk of damage to tiles, caused by thermal expansion and contraction.
BATEX is manufactured in three metals as well as three neoprene colours. Product dimensions (as per figure 3) vary according to the materials used.
During manufacturing, much care is taken to ensure proper agdhesion between the metal and the Neoprene. In order to achieve a high tear resistance, the Angles and the Neoprene are mechanically and chemically prepared before the specially formulated adhesive is applied.
The Expansion Joint is then left to cure uinder pressure for a period of time.
After both materials are solidly bonded, the Expansion Joint is machined on the bottom to proide a flat and smooth surface, and more importanntly on the top, to provide a level finish between the Angle and the Neoprene.
The resulting finish if of PARAMOUNT IMPORTANCE for the following reasons:
1. Hygiene
2. Safety Factors
3. Easy Cleaning
4. Avoidance of Damage
Batex Expansion Joints have been installed in numerous high profile projects both locally and worldwide. For more details of projects where Batex has been used recently, please contact us.
Easy installation is a feature of B.A.T. Trims' entire range. BATEX Expansion Joints are supplied in one prefabricated, easy to install three metre length. The ultimate feature of BATEX is the long term maitenance costs that are minimised byreducing the risk of tiles lifting or cracking.
Neoprene is universally recognised as having excellent resistance to deterioration from ozone and weathering, as well as high physical strength.
*Please note that Neoprene can slightly discolour under extreme UV exposure. For more information don't hesitate to contact us via e-mail, phone or fax.
BATEX can be custom made to specification i.e. radial, single-sided or multiple neoprene adhesion.
