Kantaflex Single strip seal expansion joint is based on the system that the expansion joint is built with elastomer profiles between steel rails to absorb movements. This joint consists of steel edge beams with web for holding the seal, anchorages and elastomeric seal. The working movement range of the strip seal will be +/- 80mm perpendicular to the joint and +/- 40mm parallel to the joint. This type of single strip expansion joint is recommended for moderate to large simply supported cantilever / continuous construction having right, skew or curved deck with maximum horizontal movement upto 70mm. It is manufactured indigenously in accordance with the requirement of Ministry of Road Transport and Highways.
The edge beam is hot rolled structural steel to ASTM A 36/ A36M (or) ASTM A 588/ A 588M as recommended by MoRTH with welded groove designed such a manner that elastomer seal will never comes out. Besides the edge beams bears and transmit the loads and movements.
Anchorage rods conform to IS: 2062 welded with edge beams; The anchorages are designed such a manner that it will have better reinforcement with concrete.
The elastomeric seal made of synthetic rubber compound will meet Indian and international standards. The shape of the seal designed to suit to the steel groove provided in the edge beam, which is proprietary. The elastomer seal is in long length and covers entire carriageway, footpath and crash barrier without joints.
SALIENT FEATURES Indigenous design, meant for Indian road & environment conditions. Quality can be checked thoroughly in all aspects as per the design and requirements.
Qualified and trained engineers available for study the actual requirements and to design the expansion joint considering the various aspects like Load, movements and rotations of the superstructure.
Width of the gap to cater for movement due to thermal effect, pre-stress, shrinkage and creep, super structure & sub structure deformations will be identified directly from the site to ensure to supply and install the expansion joint perfectly.
Every installation can be done with the proper guidance which minimizes the failure of the expansion joint to the maximum extent.
Maintenance free and designed for the function of 30years. Available in Indian National Rupee currency and Indian economy is saved.

COMPRESSION SEAL EXPANSION JOINT
Kantaflex compression seal expansion joint consist of steel armored nosing at two edges of the joint gap suitably anchored to the deck concrete and a performed chloroprene elastomer compressed and fixed into the joint gap with special adhesive binder. The compression seal will cater for a horizontal movement upto 40mm and vertical movement of 3mm. This type of seal is recommended for simply supported or continuous spans right or skew (upto 30 degree) moderately curved with maximum horizontal movement not exceeding 40mm. SALIENT FEATURES Steel armored nosing are hot rolled structural steel of size 75 x 75 x 10MM / 100 x 100 x 12MM Anchoring bars are heavy duty of 16mm dia, and MIG welded with steel nosing Chloroprene rubber seal is continuous length covers entire carriage way. Easy installation & Maintenance free Best for compression not for expansion Adhesive will be supplied along with system.
