Copper Waterstop is a high-performance, long-lasting sealing solution designed for permanent waterproofing in demanding construction applications. Made from 99.9% pure copper or copper alloys, it provides superior durability in hydrostatic pressure zones, underground structures, and harsh environments where plastic/rubber alternatives may fail.
Key Advantages
✅ Unmatched Durability
Naturally corrosion-resistant (no rust or degradation)
Withstands extreme temperatures (-50°C to +200°C)
50+ year lifespan – Outlasts concrete structures
✅ Structural Integrity
High tensile strength (≥200 MPa)
Maintains seal under dynamic joint movements
✅ 100% Watertight
Cold-welded joints for seamless continuity
Impervious to UV, ozone, and chemicals
✅ Sustainable & Safe
Recyclable material
Non-toxic (safe for potable water applications)

Installation Guide
Pre-Embedding – Anchor in first concrete pour using tie wires.
Joint Welding – Use oxyacetylene torch for continuous seams.
Concrete Protection – Prevent direct contact with alkaline additives.
(Pro Tip: Pair with Bentonite swell strips for redundant sealing!)
Why Engineers Prefer Copper Waterstops?
