Rubber waterstop - dumbbell type
Main types:
◦Dumbbell type
Dumbbell type water stops, with flat web section, are ideal for construction and partial contraction joints with little or no movements.

Rubber waterstop ¨C center bulb type
◦Center bulb type
Center bulb type waterstop, as its name implies, features its center bulb which makes it ideal for contraction and expansion joints including high lateral, transverse and shear movements. Meanwhile, it is perfect for withstanding the subsidence of the joints.
As your request, other types including ribbed type, splitting type, base type or capping type can be made to your order.
Installation:
All the rubber waterstops are designed to cast in the concrete as an integral joint sealing system. Pre-fabricated waterstops are also supplied to reduce site jointing.
Materials properties
SBR and neoprene rubber, as the most common materials for rubber waterstop manufacturing, are used extensively in United States and the worlds. The SBR water stop is preferred for water containment, while neoprene rubber waterstops are recommend for applications of sewage disposal or chemical industries. As your request, natural rubber, EPDM, Nitrile and Silicone waterstops are also available.
