Product Description

EPE foam based backer rods are used for filling of joints and gaps in concrete structure.  Offered EPE rods are also used for installation of glazing; for sealing joints of curtain wall, pre-cast units and pavements. These rods basically act as backup supporting solutions for sealants to improve their sealing performance. Accessible in 6 mm to 50 mm size range, these foam based rods have significant role in providing uniform depth to the sealant. White in color, offered backer rods are instrumental in improving elasticity of joint sealant.  Known for their closed cell structure, these EPE foam rods can resist damaging effects of moisture.

Superior Performance and Compatibility

With a remarkable elongation of over 125% at break, our polyethylene backer rods withstand dynamic joint movement without loss of integrity. Their excellent compression recovery ensures longevity, while a smooth finish and UV-stable formulation provide reliable use in both indoor and outdoor settings. Suited for most construction sealants, these rods prevent three-sided adhesion, enhancing the sealant's effectiveness and life.


Easy and Versatile Installation

These flexible rods are tailored for straightforward manual installation, fitting seamlessly into various joint sizes (6mm to 50mm diameter). Their lightweight design allows for efficient handling and placement, significantly reducing installation time and ensuring consistency across construction projects ranging from windows and doors to expansion and precast concrete joints.

FAQ's of Backer Rod:


Q: How should Backer Rod be properly used in construction joints?

A: To use the Backer Rod, insert it manually into the clean, dry joint to the recommended depth, ensuring it fits snugly. It creates a backstop and prevents three-sided adhesion, thus optimizing sealant performance by controlling its depth and shape.

Q: What are the main benefits of using polyethylene backer rods?

A: The primary benefits include minimizing sealant consumption, ensuring proper joint shape, providing excellent compression recovery, resisting water and chemicals, and being non-toxic and safe for human contact. They also improve joint durability and help prevent sealant failure.

Q: Where can these backer rods be installed?

A: Backer Rods are suitable for use in construction joints, window and door frames, expansion joints, and pre-cast concrete joints. Their resistance to weather and UV makes them ideal for both interior and exterior applications.

Q: When is it essential to use a backer rod with sealants?

A: A backer rod should be used whenever a sealant is applied to a joint that's too deep or requires consistent depth and shape, such as gaps in building facades, windows, doors, and concrete expansion joints. Using a rod prevents excessive sealant use and promotes long-term joint performance.

Q: What is the installation process for different sizes of backer rods?

A: Choose a rod diameter slightly larger than the joint width. Compress the rod gently into the joint using a blunt tool, taking care not to puncture it. The rod should not be twisted or stretched during placement, ensuring optimal support for the overlying sealant.

Q: Are these rods safe for all environments and applications?

A: Yes, made from 100% non-toxic, chemically inert polyethylene, the rods are safe for human contact, self-extinguishing, non-flammable, and suitable for most industrial and residential applications, including those demanding high moisture or chemical resistance.
