Pro Clima Kaflex is a flexible, heat-resistant rubberised grommet system designed to create airtight seals around pipes and cables that penetrate a building's airtightness layer. Kaflex offers simple, durable, and versatile solutions for airtight installations, available as self-adhesive patches or standalone grommets sealed with tape. It uses Tescon Vana adhesive, which has been third-party tested to maintain airtightness for at least 100 years.
Application
- Cable and Pipe Penetrations: For sealing cables and pipes with 5-12mm diameters.
- Internal or External Applications: Compatible with airtight or windtight barriers, including membranes, wood-based panels, painted surfaces, metals, and plastics.
- Access Required: The grommet slides onto the pipe or cable, requiring access to one end.
Functionality
- Creates Airtight Seals: Eliminates air leakage around pipes and cables penetrating the building envelope. The grommet grips the cable or pipe tightly while remaining adjustable for repositioning without compromising the seal.
- Simplifies Installation: Prefabricated designs make installation quick and effective, even for DIY projects.
- UV and Weather Resistant: Withstands up to 6 months of UV and weather exposure during construction.
The undersized pre-cut holes in Kaflex grommets tightly grip pipes and cables, ensuring an airtight seal while allowing adjustments as needed. Kaflex Multi enables installers to create custom hole configurations to fit multiple cables or pipes using the included punch and template.
Product Variants
- Kaflex Mono: Self-adhesive patch with one pre-cut hole for a single cable or pipe.
- Kaflex Duo: Self-adhesive patch with two pre-cut holes for two cables or pipes.
- Kaflex Multi: A 150mm x 150mm rubber grommet that seals up to 16 cables or pipes. Includes a hole punch and Tescon Vana tape for custom configurations.
Key Features
- Quick and Professional Results: Eliminates the need for messy expanding foam or silicone sealants.
- Versatile: Suitable for sealing single or multiple penetrations in one grommet.
- Certified Airtightness: Passivhaus-certified component, ensuring high performance and energy efficiency.
Key Benefits
- Time-saving: The self-adhesive backing allows for fast, secure installation.
- Repositionable: Flexible EPDM rubber lets you adjust cables or pipes post-installation without compromising the seal.
- Reduced Leakage Points: Kaflex Multi minimises the number of potential leakage points by sealing up to 16 penetrations with one grommet.
- Reliable: Avoids common sealing failures associated with foam or sealants.
