DD-HP-Series

The DD-HP-Series system is an adjustable high profile aluminum joint system. This design is adjustable to height variances using the “tuning fork” design. Adjustments in elevations may be compensated for in the field to match existing conditions allowing for a good fit. Simply anchor the bottom extrusion into place making sure it is plumb and equal distance from the opposing side, place the top extrusion over the male support extrusion, make adjusts to the elevation using the leveling device, match drill though the vertical legs of the extrusions, and bolt the connection using the stainless steel hardware provided.

CSS-Series

The Seismic Color Contour Seal is made of preformed compressible material, which can be used in a variety of waterproofing applications. It is made of polyurethane foam that has constant internal forces built into each cell. These cells continuously push against each other and the sidewalls of an opening. Consequently, this force is used to keep out water, moisture, dust, sound, and weather. The product is designed to provide a permanent, watertight seal.

CS-Series

Contour Seal (CS) is a compressible sealer, which can be used in a variety of waterproofing applications. It is made of polyurethane, closed-cell foam, which has constant internal forces built into each cell. These cells continuously push against each other and the sidewalls of the opening. Consequently, this force is used to keep out water, moisture, dust, sound, and weather. The product is designed to provide a permanent, watertight seal.

CSC-Series

The Custodian Contour Seal (CSC) is made of preformed, compressible, polyurethane, micro-cell foam material that is hydrophobic, and chemically resistant. The exposed surface is a traffic grade silicone designed for vehicular traffic. This pre-compressed, foam seal can be used in a variety of waterproofing applications both horizontal and vertical. It is chemically resistant to road solvents such as fuels, antifreeze, oils, grease, and is a UV stable, foam material.

CSD-Series

The "Defender" Contour Seal (CSD) is used as a backer seal and serves as a dual sealant system when used with a high quality urethane or a silicone joint sealant. It is designed with a bond-breaker for caulk. When installed in a joint, the CSD seal’s internal recovery force holds it in place while the sealant compound prevents penetration of air, dust, noise or water. CSD can extend up to 100% and return to seal the joint. It works on a completely different principle from caulk joints and therefore is not subject to the same type of failures.

CSN-Series

The Nautica Contour Seal (CSN) is a preformed, compressible sealer, which can be used in a variety of waterproofing applications. It is made of stabilized polymer, closed cell foam that has constant internal forces built into each cell. These cells continuously push against each other and the sidewalls of an opening. Consequently, this force is used to keep out water, moisture, dust, sound, and weather. The seal has a uniform PVS skin on the exposed face that repels water, oils, dust, and noise. The product is designed to provide a permanent, watertight seal.

Perm-A-Shield

The Perm-A-Shield System is a pre-cured, elastomeric, silicone seal system that has ultra-low, modulus, RTV-cured, silicone extrusions that are primarily used for sealing expansion joints and are bonded to substrates using silicone sealants as adhesives. Because of the unique properties of Perm-A-Shield, these extruded shapes are used as permanent sealing solutions where other materials have failed time and time again. Perm-A-Shield is manufactured from 100% silicone, using a revolutionary, patented process specifically designed for maximum production, flexibility, and product variety.
