Unique design provides excellent fit with a flat surface within chink joint, resulting in saving on chinking. Can be used on exterior or interior surfaces. Comes in 4' lengths. Repels moisture.

  • It’s compatible with all commonly available synthetic chinking
  • It helps prevent blistering of chinking surfaces

  • It comes in a number of widths and it fits a wide variety of log styles
