How it works

They close the PVC formwork spacer tubes, which would otherwise remain water paths through the wall. The rigid polyamide core provides mechanical sealing; the corrugated water-swellable rubber cap expands on contact with water (+200/+600%) and seals the hole. Tested under negative pressure up to 5 bar; diameters 21–34 mm.
