Crack Inducing Waterstop

Specially engineered to produce a waterproof crack control joint.

How It Works

Kryton Crack Inducing Waterstop is fastened to a concrete form or shoring wall. A keyway is measured and formed directly opposite the waterstop. After the concrete is placed, a controlled crack develops from the Crack Inducing Waterstop through to the keyway. Krystol Waterstop Grout can then be tightly packed in the keyway for added

protection.

Kryton Crack Inducing Waterstop is resistant to waterborne chemicals. It is placed in a predetermined location to isolate cracking to a controlled area in order to eliminate water entry through uncontrolled shrinkage cracking.
