The 45gsm Fiber Mesh in waterproofing serves several functions:-
1. Reinforcement:-
It adds strength and stability to the waterproofing membrane, resisting tears and punctures.
2. Crack bridging:-
The mesh helps to bridge cracks and gaps in the substrate, preventing water infiltration.
3. Enhanced durability:-
The fiber mesh increases the lifespan of the waterproofing system by providing additional resistance to wear and tear.
4. Improved adhesion:-
The mesh provides a stable surface for the waterproofing membrane to adhere to, enhancing bond strength.
5. Dimensional stability:-
It helps maintain the membrane’s integrity, preventing shrinkage and wrinkles.
The 45gsm specification refers to the mesh's weight and density, indicating a relatively lightweight and flexible material suitable for various waterproofing applications, such as:
- Roofing
- Walls
- Basements
- Toilet
- Balcony etc.
The 45gsm Fiber Mesh is a popular choice for waterproofing due to its balanced properties, offering a good compromise between strength, flexibility, and cost-effectiveness.
