OXICELL PE*

Polyethylene Joint Filler / Compressible Filler

Description Installation method

OXICELL PE is non-extruding, non-absorbent, UV
resistant, semi-rigid, highly resilient, bitumen free,
cross linked closed cell polyethylene joint filler for
expansion joints in concrete, brickwork and block
work. It is ideal for cushion packaging and is used in
many applications, including computer, automotive,
construction and recreation.
Advantages
• Non-absorbent and non-tainting. Hence makes it
suitable for use in both water excluding and
water retaining structures.
• Cross linked closed cell, UV resistant and semi-
PRODUCT DATA SHEET
Joint sealing slots: When forming expansion joints
with OXICELL PE in in-situ concrete, joint sealing
slots can be readily formed in the following manner.
Before installing, simply cut off a strip of the
required depth. Pin the strip back on using two-inch
nails at intervals. Then install the filler flush with the
finished surface.
Prior to sealing, the top strip can then be pulled
easily from the joint to provide an uncontaminated
sealing slot ready for preparation and sealing.
Therefore, sealant wastage is reduced.

rigid
• Chemically resistant petroleum solvents, acids,
alkalis and oil
• Highly resilient - the heat welded laminated
structure combines greater rigidity and load
support, therefore low load transfer.
• Bitumen-free and rot-proof. Ideal for structures
• Designed to store potable water.
As elastomeric sealants will not bond to OXICELL PE
the additional need for bond-breaker strips is
eliminated.
