-
Triangular Shaped
Fits into the log joint to
create a flat surface for
chinking.
-
Bond Breaker
Chinking releases from
closed-cell surface allowing
for its natural elasticity.
-
Rounded Corners
Increases chinking
"footprint" area for maximum
adhesion.
-
Closed-Cell
Resists moisture migration.
-
Flame Retardant
Withdraws from flame rather
than supporting combustion.
-
Energy Efficient
TRI-ROD has an R 4 per inch
rating giving it excellent
thermal efficiency.
-
No Outgassing
