Use
To guard against air leakage
when traditionally building in
timber joists.To protect the ends
of rectangular timber joists
against dampness.
Introduction
The joist glove snugly fits the end
of the rectangular joist.It protects
against the hygroscopic behaviour
of the timber.The exterior of the
glove has a compressible seal.
Should shrinkage occur,the seal
guards against air leakage.
This compressible seal does not
rely on pressing against the skin
face where the surface finish can
be variable.It is actually
compressed and enveloped within
the block work masonry.
Joist Gloves are lightweight and
fold-moulded from polypropylene.
The mason applies a Joist Glove
to the end of each timber joist
and can proceed as normal.
There are no flanges to obstruct
placement or pointing-in.
