PaveX™ Crack-A-Joint™ – Danley™

As an alternative to traditional saw cutting and tooled joints, PaveX™ Crack-A-Joint™  supplied by InfraBuild Reinforcing induces a controlled crack to the full depth of the concrete. Available in profile heights of 25mm and 38mm, PaveX™ Crack-A-Joint™ initiates a crack in slabs between 75mm and 150mm in depth. Extruded in UV stabilised uPVC to 3 metres in length, PaveX™ Crack-A-Joint™ is also suitable for use in pavements in chemically corrosive environments including chlorinated or salt-water swimming pool surrounds and coastal environments.

PaveX™ Crack-A-Joint™ Rip-A-Strip Capping and Clip-on Joiners are sold separately.
