SikaFuko® VT-1 is a re-injectable hose for sealing various construction and connection joints in watertight
concrete structures. To seal the joint, SikaFuko® VT-1
is injected with suitable Sika® Injection materials, such
as acrylate and microfine cement suspensions (for
multiple injections) or polyurethane and epoxy resins
(for single injection). With the integrated ‘valve techniques’ the hose can be used to re-inject multiple
times if necessary.
Suitable for use in hot and tropical climatic conditions.USES
