K-EXPAND BG1 7–12mm × 4.3m is a self-adhesive, pre-compressed polyurethane expanding foam tape designed for confident, reliable joint sealing across one of the most frequently encountered gap ranges in residential and commercial construction. Compressed to 7–12mm for straightforward handling and clean installation, it expands progressively to fill joints up to 35mm wide — a size well matched to standard and slightly wider-than-tolerance window frames, aluminium curtain walling sections, timber and steel door frames, and façade panel perimeters where a solid mid-range seal is needed without resorting to a heavier product.
The 4.3m roll length is calibrated to deliver efficient, low-waste yield for individual window or door openings — ideal for both new build programmes and refurbishment projects where material control per unit matters. BBA Approved and independently verified to DIN 18542 BG1 standards, it provides the specification-grade weather tightness and long-term durability that contractors and site managers rely on.
