Flexible PVC waterstop for joint waterproofing, typically embedded across and along the joint. PVC is the most versatile waterstop material, has great inherent elasticity and is resistant to many waterborne chemicals.
Greenstreak PVC Waterstop is a flexible PVC waterstop for joint waterproofing in concrete construction. Embedded in concrete across and or along the joint, it forms a watertight diaphragm that helps prevent the passage of liquid through the joint. Ribbed centerbulb profiles are commonly specified for movement joints where lateral, transverse, and shear movement can occur.

What is a ribbed centerbulb waterstop used for?
Ribbed centerbulb waterstops are commonly used at movement joints. The centerbulb geometry helps accommodate lateral, transverse, and shear movement while the ribs improve sealing characteristics in concrete joints.
How is PVC waterstop joined at corners and intersections?
Transitions, intersections, and splices should be heat welded to maintain continuity. Factory-made fabrications are recommended for intersections and changes of direction. Use a PVC waterstop splicing iron and follow the splicing instructions for the profile being installed.
When should the waterstop be installed?
Install prior to concrete placement to ensure proper positioning and concrete consolidation around the waterstop.
Is it suitable for potable water structures?
Yes. Greenstreak PVC waterstop is suitable for potable water contact and meets NSF ANSI Standard 61.
How should PVC waterstop be stored on site?
Protect the material from direct sunlight and store in a manner that prevents deformation prior to installation.
