Roberts Designs 20mm Square Open Cell Backer Rod fills deep movement and expansion joints before sealing, so the sealant goes on at the right depth and does not bond to the base of the joint. It comes in 2.15m lengths that are easy to handle on the floor.
Use it for
- Expansion joints in large tiled floors, external paving and balconies
- Movement joints in tile beds and screeds
- Deep perimeter joints behind trims and skirting
Specifications
- Profile: Square, open cell foam
- Size: 20mm
- Length: 2.15m per piece
- Pack: 250 piece bundle
- Model: RDX2304
Good to know
- Open cell foam is compressible, so it packs tight into a 20mm or slightly smaller joint.
- Set the rod so the sealant depth is about half the joint width, then gun sealant over it. Open cell rod suits hybrid sealants that cure with moisture.
- For narrow wet area joints, use the round closed cell rods (6mm RDX2300 or 10mm RDX2303).
