DELTA®-DRAIN 9000

DELTA®-DRAIN 9000 is a high-performance, high-strength drainboard ideally suited for demanding horizontal drainage applications in plaza deck and pavement construction, and split slabs where high compressive strength and high flow rates are required.

Properties

High water flow rate and ultimate compressive strength characterize this commercial grade drainboard. Its high-strength Polypropylene core provides a continuous path for water discharge. The woven monofilament fabric allows water to pass freely into the drainage core while withstanding abrasion during substrate application (i.e. gravel). The high-strength monofilaments in this type fabric prevent intrusion of overburden material into the drainage core to maintain its high transmissivity.

DELTA®-DRAIN 9000 is the ideal solution for horizontal applications like plaza deck and pavement construction, split slabs, etc. where a combination of high compressive strength and high-drainage capacity is required. Whether in commercial or civil engineering applications, this drainboard has proven superior long term performance in regards to water flow rate, compressive strength, and chemical and environmental stress crack resistance.

Material

DELTA®-DRAIN 9000 is a high-performance 2-layer drainage composite. It consists of a dimpled drainage core and a high-strength woven monofilament PP fabric. The Polypropylene made drainage core provides unmatched impact and tear resistance, and is unaffected by environmental stress cracking.

The woven fabric is fully bonded to the dimpled drainage core which prevents it from being pushed into the flow channels by the load of the overburden material.

Application

DELTA®-DRAIN 9000 is ideally suited as highly effective Drainboard System in plaza and parking deck construction, split slab construction, and many other horizontal applications where high drainage capacity in conjunction with high compressive-strength is required.

DELTA®-DRAIN 9000 can be easily installed as it comes in a large roll size (6'x50').
