Protect your masonry from the silent forces of thermal movement. Our Pre-greased Galvanised Slip Joint is the technical solution for managing the inevitable expansion and contraction between differing building materials. By creating a low-friction separation layer at the junctions of brickwork and concrete, this joint allows materials to move independently.

Specifications

Every unit is sold in standard 3-metre lengths and comes pre-taped to ensure the grease remains contained and the sheets aligned during handling and placement on-site.

Note: The 270mm variant features a specialised “Vee” fold designed to bridge cavities, providing structural movement protection while maintaining the integrity of the wall cavity.

Why Choose Our Pre-greased Slip Joint?

• Crack Prevention: Acts as a mechanical “buffer” that absorbs the stress caused by differing expansion rates between concrete slabs and brick walls.
• Ready-to-Install: Pre-greased and taped together, these joints eliminate the mess and inconsistency of manual greasing on-site.
• Corrosion Resistant: The galvanised sheeting is corrosion resistant, ensuring the slip mechanism doesn’t seize over time due to rust.
• Australian Standard Protection: Since 1957, Vincent Buda & Company has provided the critical hardware that keeps Australian masonry compliant and crack-free.

Primary Applications

• Brick-to-Concrete Junctions: Essential where face brick meets a concrete slab or beam.
• Commercial Masonry: High-performance movement control for large-scale retail and office walls.
• Cavity Wall Construction: The 270mm V-fold is perfect for spanning internal and external skins.
• Structural Renovations: Retrofitting movement joints during major home extensions.
