Contite Hydraulic Jack Waterproofing Kit
Drawing on years of experience assisting elevator contractors and building owners with water infiltration in elevator pits, Contite has assembled a kit that includes everything needed to ensure that a newly installed or replaced hydraulic elevator jack will remain watertight in the pit. The kit includes:

Contite Power Plug
The most important part of sealing up a jack is making sure there is a strong layer of waterproofing material that bonds with the existing concrete slab. Contite’s Power Plug combines the strength of aggregate-reinforced concrete with Contite’s exclusive ACP³ water stopping action. Power Plug is also applied at the bottom of the drill casing in installations where the drill casing goes all the way to the bottom of the excavation for the jack. There, it acts as the first line of defense against water infiltration where water pressure is highest.

Contite Penetrating Mortar
Contite Penetrating Mortar is used like a conventional mortar is used, but where a waterproof seal is required. Its high quartz content adds strength while Contite’s ACP³ ingredients create bonding and penetrating action. It is used to fill construction joints, pipe penetrations and to fill cracks.

Contite Express
Contite Express is a cementitous material with a powerful concentration of ACP³ active ingredients that can stop heavy infiltration of water within seconds. Mixed as a drypack, Express is applied in a layer between the drill casing and the PVC liner to prevent water from coming out of the drill casing and into the elevator pit. Contite Express is effective when active water pressure is present. Apply force to hold the drypack in place for 45-60 seconds and Express’ powerful bonding agents stop the water infiltration for good.

Contite manufactures a complete line of waterproofing materials to address water infiltration in all areas of the elevator pit.

Contite Control
Contite Control is used in slurry form to treat large areas such as walls and slabs. It is also a bonding agent used to create a continuously watertight structure in areas with construction joints caused by multiple concrete pours. Contite Control can be applied by brush or by pneumatic sprayer.

Contite Injex
Contite Injex is an injection mortar that is used to fill voids and deliver Contite’s ACP³ active chemicals deep below the surface of the structure. Injex is particularly useful with concrete block, cinder block, and brick structures.
