best for: office buildings, hospitals, hotels, and commercial spaces with suspended ceiling systems requiring expansion joint coverage.
Introducing the C-WE
The PROCAP C Series CWE is a suspended-ceiling expansion joint cover for interior ceilings, including acoustical tile ceilings. Extruded aluminum support profiles hold a central elastomeric rubber insert that flexes with thermal and settlement movement; its rigid edges lock into the profiles so no hairline gap opens. Frame configurations suit both flat and corner conditions.

thermal & settlement movement
the central elastomeric rubber insert of the cwe flexes to take up thermal and settlement movement. its rigid edges lock into the aluminum support profiles, so no hairline gap opens as the ceiling moves.

Aesthetic Choice
The CWE is designed for minimal visual impact in interior ceilings, including acoustical tile ceilings. A black, grooved rubber insert sits between slim extruded aluminum support profiles, with frame configurations for both flat and corner conditions, and the profiles can be customized to suit project requirements.
Optional Vapor Barrier
For added protection, an optional vapor barrier is available, constructed from either EPDM or TPV, which offers high tensile and tear resistance, ensuring long-term performance against moisture penetration
Premium Aluminum for Architectural Materials
Aluminum grade 6063, the premium material used in the expansion joint cover, offers strength, corrosion resistance, and durability. Available in T5 and T6 tempers or customized to meet project needs, this versatile alloy ensures exceptional structural integrity and longevity. Aluminum 6063 withstands high-traffic areas, extreme temperatures, and corrosive conditions, making it an ideal choice for diverse applications, from commercial facilities to infrastructure projects
