Voltex Volclay
VOLTEX® works by forming a low permeability membrane upon contact with water. When wetted, unconfined bentonite can swell up to 15 times its dry volume. When confined under pressure the swell is controlled, forming a dense, impervious waterproofing membrane.
STORAGE: Keep VOLTEX® and all accessory products dry prior to back fill or concrete placement.
UNDER CONCRETE FLOOR SLABS: VOLTEX® is recommended for use under structural reinforced concrete slabs 100 mm thick or greater on a compacted earth gravel substrate.
BACKFILLED CAST-IN-PLACE CONCRETE WALLS: Before installing the first course of VOLTEX®, place HYDROBAR TUBES® at the wall/footing transition corner. Butt the ends of HYDROBAR TUBES® together to form a continuous line.
