Product Specifications

Available Sizes

3/4″ Pipe Seal

Designed for shower head pipe penetrations. The central opening accommodates the pipe, helping protect the surrounding wall area against water ingress.

4-1/2″ Mixing Valve Seal

Designed for larger shower mixing valve openings. The larger central opening accommodates the valve body while providing waterproofing protection around the penetration.

Installation Guide

Prepare the wall substrate and apply the waterproofing system according to its installation requirements.

Position the sealing membrane over the corresponding pipe or mixing valve penetration.

Embed the membrane into a compatible waterproofing layer or thin-bed mortar, ensuring proper contact and avoiding wrinkles or trapped air.

Integrate the surrounding membrane and sealing details according to the waterproofing system manufacturer’s instructions.

Allow the system to cure as specified before proceeding with tile installation.

Important: Confirm compatibility between the seal, waterproofing membrane, mortar and substrate before installation. The pipe or valve connection itself must be sealed separately where required.

Why Use Pipe & Mixing Valve Seals?

Pipe and valve penetrations are common vulnerable points in tiled shower walls. Integrating purpose-designed sealing components into the waterproofing system helps protect these areas and supports a continuous waterproofing layer behind the tile finish.

STRUX Pipe & Mixing Valve Seals provide a simple, practical solution for improving waterproofing details around plumbing penetrations in residential and commercial wet areas.
