Description
This aluminium medium duty movement joint is designed to absorb lateral movement in tiled floors, helping to prevent cracking and tile failure in areas subject to thermal or structural movement. With a robust aluminium profile and a flexible polyurethane insert, it provides a reliable expansion zone within the tile field while maintaining a neat, professional finish.
Suitable for both commercial and residential applications, this 2.5m movement joint is ideal for use in corridors, reception areas, shops, and other medium traffic spaces. Available in 10mm and 12mm heights and with a choice of black or dark grey inserts, it can be matched to common grout lines for a discreet, coordinated appearance.
