The Straight HC-Omega® joint
The Straight HC-Omega® joint is the most suitable construction joint and expansion joint for industrial floors. Its rigid and robust structure make it easy to install and extremely effective.
Strong and durable
The Straight HC-Omega®profile is a very strong and durable free movement joint that has proved its effectiveness since 1989. Made up of two 1/5th inch thick continuous cold rolled steel profiles, its male and female connection system prevents vertical movement and guarantees optimal load transfer while still allowing for free horizontal movement in both directions of the concrete slab. Using precise automation, the welded nelson studs guarantee solid anchorage to the concrete when shrinking occurs. As with all the armor joints, the top edge of the joint is milled ensuring perfect evenness of the two steel plates and lasting edge protection.

Other Armored Joints
THE COSINUS SLIDE® JOINT
Cosinus Slide® armored joint incorporates the latest state of the art technology and changes the way we think of joints. This new jointing solution is revolutionary because the joint becomes the floor. It is like there is no joint. The unique sinus wave geometry completely eliminates any potential impacts from wheeled traffic. Continuous load transfer is accomplished by the Sinus-Cosinus geometry.
THE E-SLIDE JOINT®
Not all floors require the enormous load transfer capacity of the Cosinus Slide®. Coming in at a comparable price to a standard doweled armored joint, the e-Slide Joint® was created to provide a more economical priced sinus wave armored joint.
THE E-STRAIGHT® JOINT
The e-straight construction joint is our new solution for concrete industrial floors with less static (racks) and dynamic (traffic) load requirements.
THE SINUS SLIDE® REPAIR JOINT
When a robust sustainable joint repair solution is desired, know that there is such a possible solution. An important factor is to eliminate the cause of damage which often is the striking impact of passing wheels.
THE HC MINI OMEGA® JOINT
The range of the HC-Mini Omega joint is especially designed for applications in, lighter use industrial floors on elevated bearing slabs, stage floors, various commercial applications, parking structures, and also in light, small industrial floors in buildings.
