The  PROOFMATEFD-SYSTEMis a sealing membrane system that can be used for sealing of construction joints and control joints against ground damp, non-standing and standing seepage water as well as water pressure.

It consists of following components:

  • PROOFMATE FD-FOLIE (EPDM sealing membrane)
  • PROOFMATE F (adhesive)

The PROOFMATE FD-SYSTEM has been awarded a General Building Authority Test Certificate as verification of applicability for the application areas mentioned above.

The PROOFMATE FD-FOLIE is UV-resistant and is also suitable for building construction applications. No mechanical fixation (clamps/flanges) of the edges is required due to the edge sealing applied.

Next to applications in building construction and civil engineering, the  PROOFMATE  FD-FOLIE can be also used as a waterproofing membrane on shotcrete in tunnelling.

 

Application:

Sealing of construction joints and control joints PROOFMATE F adhesive is applied onto the cleaned subsurface with the manual caulking gun Z2 in loops of 15 mm thickness. Spreading the adhesive on the subsurface should be carried out with B3 notched steel in such a way that an even layer of adhesive of approx. 1.5 mm is applied to the subsurface to be sealed.

The PROOFMATE  FD-FOLIE  is wiped with FIX-O-FLEX  HAFTGRUND  on the side to be bonded to remove dust or other contaminants. After that, the sealing membrane is positioned on the adhesive layer and rolled into the adhesive from the centre outwards with a wide draw roll. Press down in such a way that no air bubbles are left under the foil but at the same time, no adhesive is pressed out at the free edges. Any adhesive outside of the foil must be removed before sealing.

The PROOFMATE  FD-FOLIE must be cut to fit the run of the joints. The necessary overlaps of the PROOFMATE  FD-FOLIE must be bonded along the whole surface area for a length of 100 mm. The width of the foil must be chosen to fit the intended application. If it is used as a joint seal against pressurized water, the minimum width is 500 mm.

The area of floor/wall connections with a protruding bottom slab must be laid out of the wall area and across the bottom slab onto the front surface of the bottom slab for about 100 mm. Afterwards, all edges of the PROOFMATE FD-FOLIE are sealed with PROOFMATE Fadhesive resulting in a  fully covered membrane where no free corners or edges are visible anymore.

Before backfilling appropriate measures must be taken to protect all PROOFMATE  FD-SYSTEM seals in contact with earth from mechanical damage.
