 BACKER
ROD
Backer Rod is a foam material used to fill large checks and gaps between
logs. It also provides support for chinking and sealants. Its primary
purpose is act as a "bond-breaker" and promote two-point adhesion
(see diagram), giving the joint and sealing material the ability to
compress and expand as logs move. Sealants and chinking do not adhere
to the backer rod—only to the log surfaces of the joint—allowing
for movement without damaging the sealing material.
|
Sashco distributes a number of types and profiles
of backer rod including the Grip StripTM
and Half Rod. You should select backer rod based upon your particular
needs. Open-cell type is recommended to speed drying. A closed-cell
type is more moisture resistant. (Ask your applicator or contact
Sashco for a handy comparison sheet.) |
