Sika Waterbar FB-125 is a hybrid waterstop with a rough textured surface based on flexible polyolefin (FPO). The waterstop is placed into the fresh concrete and becomes fully embedded in the cured concrete. It provides a fully bonded, durable watertight seal, that prevents any lateral water underflow.
Sika Greenstreak Waterbar FB-125 is a flexible, fully bonded waterstop designed for construction joints in watertight concrete structures. Made from a hybrid flexible polyolefin (FPO), it features a rough textured surface to bond tightly with fresh concrete and prevent lateral water migration. Installed directly into the concrete during placement, this durable waterstop creates a continuous, watertight seal ideal for below-grade and water-retaining applications. With no need for recesses or special tools, it reduces installation time while maintaining long-term performance.
