Abelflex is a high-performance, cross-linked, closed-cell polyethylene foam designed to act as a permanent filler in concrete expansion joints. Engineered to withstand the harshest Australian conditions, it provides a professional finish that protects your concrete from cracking and moisture ingress.
Why Choose Abelflex?
- Superior Recovery: The cross-linked structure ensures excellent compression and recovery properties, maintaining a tight seal as concrete expands and contracts.
- Weather & Chemical Proof: Built to resist UV light, extreme temperatures, acids, and oils. It’s non-absorbent and impervious to most liquids.
-
Dual-Purpose "Zip-Top": Every roll features a pre-cut 10mm "zip" edge.
- For Sealant Use: Install with the zip-up; once the concrete sets, simply tear off the top strip for a perfectly recessed gap ready for sealant.
- For No Sealant: Install upside down (zip-down) to prevent accidental removal or debris buildup.

It is available with a self-adhesive backing. We stock both 'Plain' and 'Adhesive Back' Abelflex. The adhesive version is an efficient time-saver for securing the foam to brickwork or formwork before the concrete arrives.
10mm is the industry standard. This provides enough compressibility to manage standard residential and commercial slab movement without creating an excessively wide joint.
Yes, we stock widths from 50mm up to 300mm. You should choose the width that matches your slab depth for full-depth protection. Vincent Buda and Company has the full range in stock.
It is faster and more moisture-resistant. While bitumen board (Jointex) is still used, Abelflex is lighter, easier to cut, and the zip-top feature makes the final sealing process significantly easier, available for same day or next day delivery within the Sydney Metro.
