procap d series

sku: dwe · wall
best for: interior wall and ceiling areas with small joint gaps, drywall applications, and installations fixed directly to the wall substrate where extra movement capacity is needed.

Introducing the DWE

The PROCAP D is an aluminum + rubber expansion joint cover profile. The elastomeric rubber insert comes in four standard colors with a smooth finish for a hygienic, easy-to-clean surface. The rubber has a bigger serration than the PROFLANGE WCS series to accommodate more movement.

assembly

watch how the dwe expansion joint cover goes together: the aluminum surface-mount frames are fixed to the wall or ceiling with screws and plugs, then the rubber insert is pushed into the frame receptacles, using soapy water to ease insertion.

movement

the dwe rubber insert has an enlarged fold (serration) geometry, so it absorbs thermal and settlement movement through its own folding, with movement of up to ±50% of the nominal joint width depending on the size.

Recommended Applications

Interior wall and ceiling areas with small joint gaps, drywall applications, and areas of installation directly to the wall substrate. Suitable for thermal and settlement movement. Available in DWE and DWEK variants covering 30mm to 150mm joint gaps.

System Drawing

The DWE expansion joint cover drawings show 30, 50, 80, 100, 120 and 150 mm joint widths in wall-to-wall and ceiling-to-ceiling conditions, plus the DWEK variant for wall-to-ceiling. Every size is downloadable as DWG and PDF.

Additional Water Protection

An optional TPE or EPDM water barrier fits the same DWE frames without modification, adding a further layer of protection against moisture at the wall or ceiling joint.

Durable Aluminum Support Frames

The DWE support frames are continuous extruded aluminum (AA 6063) surface-mount profiles with a maximum projection of 15 mm. They come in mill finish as standard, with anodized or powder-coated finishes optional, in 3.00 m lengths.

Replaceable Rubber Insert

The DWE rubber insert is field-replaceable as a single continuous piece without removing the aluminum frames. Starting at the top of the joint, push the insert legs into the frame receptacles.

Simple And Secure Installation

DWE frames are surface-mounted directly on the finished wall or ceiling with screws and plastic plugs at 400 mm centers, bedded in a continuous bead of sealant adhesive, with pre-cut spacers to keep the frames aligned.

Wall And Ceiling Applications

The DWE expansion joint cover is made for interior wall-to-wall and ceiling-to-ceiling joints from 30 mm to 150 mm, including drywall and plastered walls in commercial, hospitality, healthcare and residential buildings.
Wall And Ceiling Applications

Wall To Corner Option

The DWEK variant closes the joint at wall-to-ceiling and corner conditions, using the same frame and insert family as the DWE, in joint widths from 30 mm to 150 mm.
