Adeka Ultraseal MC-2005T is a chemically modified natural rubber (non-vulcanized) product. The manufacturing process chemically bonds a hydrophilic agent to the rubber. This permits the seal to undergo controlled expansion when exposed to moisture (approximately 2 times by volume). This expansion capability provides a "double locking" waterstop.
Excellent durability and resistance to chemical contaminants
Can withstand seawater and cement water
Environmentally safe - contains no toxic substances or heavy metals
Adeka MC-2005T is a chemically modified natural rubber (non-vulcanized) product. The manufacturing process chemically bonds a hydrophilic agent to the rubber. This permits the seal to undergo controlled expansion when exposed to moisture (approximately 2 times by volume). This expansion capability provides a "double locking" waterstop i.e. one from rubber's natural resilience and one from expansion pressure generated when it is exposed to water.
Expansion occurs in three dimensions: width, height, and length and will follow the direction of least resistance. Therefore it is important to have waterstop completely encapsulated. MC-2005T requires a minimum of 4.0 ~ 5.0 inches of concrete coverage. See MC coverage chart for complete information.
MC-2005T has excellent durability and resistance to chemical contaminants. It can perform in a wide range of solutions such as sea water or cement water. The material does not contain any toxic substance or heavy metals and is environmentally safe.
Used in general below grade concrete joint work where hydrostatic head does not exceed 50 feet. MC-2005T may replace conventional waterstop in non-moving joints. See datasheet for application details.
