Open Cell Backer Rod

Open Cell Backing Rod

Tremco Sealant Accessory

Open Cell polyethylene backing rod for use in conjunction with Tremco sealants and membranes.

Usage/Purpose 

Tremco’s Open Cell Backing Rod is designed to be used in conjunction with Tremco’s sealants. It provides a highly durable bond-breaker to prevent 3-sided adhesion, which would otherwise reduce the sealant’s functional elasticity. Open Cell Backing Rod can be used for horizontal joints, but is ideal for vertical joints, commonly found in pre-cast panel butt joints, as well as around window/door perimeters, as it promotes quicker drying of the applied sealant when compared to Closed Cell Backing Rod.
