The J and JP-Series Profiles include an extruded elastomeric profile and a high-strength, two-part epoxy based structural adhesive. The product, when inserted into an expansion joint in a substrate, will seal the opening from the intrusion of water and debris. This unique de-sign allows the seal to function under compression as well as in ten-sion. The standard J-Series is used for parking garage applications, where normal as well as vertical movements are a design parameter. The JP-Series are designed for architectural applications, meeting ADA guidelines and providing a smooth walking surface for pedestrians. In addition to architectural and parking garage projects, the J and JP Series can also be used for bridge applications.

• Ease of Installation – Using a vacuum, the seal is collapsed and easily inserted. Once the vacuum is released, the air pressure returns to normal and compresses the sidewalls against the concrete

surfaces. Installation does not rely on a positive air pressure, which can over inflate the seal and squeeze out adhesive. • Concrete and Steel Adhesive is VOC Compliant – The adhesive has a zero VOC rating. The material resists humidity, salt spray, and extreme temperature ranges. • Fatigue Tested for One-Million Cycles – The profiles were cyclically opened and closed in tension

and compression for one-million cycles. The seals were stretched to 200% of their original width with no bond failure.

• No Block-out Recess Required – The J and JP-Series are a solid choice with the pre-cast concrete

industry in that no block-out recess is required. The seal profile can be installed directly between the joint interfaces.

The seal profile is available in two specific designs. The profiles are extruded from high-quality poly-chloroprene (neoprene) material meeting ASTM D3542 with physical requirements as shown in Ta-ble 1. The adhesive is a high-strength, two-part modified epoxy-based material. It is 100% reactive and will develop a strong bond in approximately 24 hours at room temperature. For typical physical properties, see Table 2 at right.

Features and Benefits

Delivery and Storage

The J and JP seals are delivered to the jobsite in con-tinuous lengths. Epoxy adhesive is packaged in one-liter containers for parts A and B with a total weight of 4.4 pounds and a shelf life of six (6) months.

Limitations

The J and JP-Series waterproofing capabilities are dependent on the internal forces generated while the seal is under compression. For this reason, it is very important that the proper seal size be selected from the Product Size and Movement Table found in this brochure.

CS Series AF Series

Delastic® CS & AF preformed seals provide a level top surface that is particularly suited for pedes-trian traffic. Once in the joint opening, the top sections are much closer together forming a level walk-ing surface and a pleasing visual effect for exposed vertical applications. The AF and AW Series seals also feature a level top surface suited for pedestrians and lower traffic volumes. The “honeycomb” design creates the necessary outward pressure for a watertight seal.

D.S. Brown's Delastic® Neoprene Sponge Joint (NSJ) seals are preformed and made from closed cell neoprene expanded rubber. The NSJ expansion joint seal is designed for small movement expansion joint applications such as: small movement bridge expan-sion joints, perimeter joints around buildings, vertical wall applications and slab-to-wall conditions, exterior columns, elevator shafts, and stair towers. NSJ ex-pansion joint seals remain in contact with the joint walls through normal compression and tension of their shape and are bonded to the joint with a high quality epoxy adhesive.

In 1960 The D. S. Brown Company began designing and extruding the first generation of Delastic® Preformed Neoprene Compression Seals. Since that time continuous improvements have been made to this versatile, cost-effective joint sealing solution. To withstand the demanding requirements of bridge/highway installations, all Delastic® Preformed Compression Seals are extruded from neoprene (polychloroprene) compounds which satisfy the ASTM standard specification D3542 for Preformed Polychloroprene Elastomeric Joint Seals for Bridges. In addition to highway and bridge applications, Delastic® Neoprene Compression Seals have also been used in spillways, dams, parking structures, stadium ramps, and pedestrian over-passes. Information on additional seal designs is available.

Installation In all installation applications, the joint width must be properly set for the specified Delastic® seal. Also, the verti-cal faces of the joint must be clean and free of spalled concrete. Desirable installation temperatures range from 35ºF (2ºC) to 80ºF (27ºC). At temperatures below this range the lubricant/adhesive has limited effectiveness, while at temperatures above this range the seals become difficult to compress for installation. Manual and automatic tools are available to facilitate installation. D. S. Brown Delastilube™ or Delastilube™ HS lubricant/adhesive is used primarily to lubricate the seal for installation purposes. The Delastilube™ products meet ASTM D2835 and D4070 standards.

Design Data The table below can be used to select the appropriate Delastic® Neoprene Compression Seal for your project. In addition to accommodating perpendicular movements (summarized in the table), Delastic® seals are also capable of accepting approximately 15-20% lateral shear, vertical shear, and rotational movements.
