Introducing the Z5500
The LUXFINISH Series Z-5500 & ZK-5500 is a premium pop-up seismic expansion joint cover engineered for seamless integration in floors. Designed to provide a minimal visible sightline, this high-performance joint cover is ideal for areas where aesthetics and multi-directional movement are critical. With a unique central pan that can accommodate finishing materials, the LUXFINISH maintains a cohesive look across flooring, making it an excellent choice for hospitality, retail, and commercial environments.

Aesthetic Choice
The central pan assembly provides a deep recess that can hold finishing materials, effectively concealing the joint while blending with the surrounding flooring. This feature makes the LUXFINISH a perfect solution for spaces that prioritize a clean, uninterrupted aesthetic
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
Anti-slip Serration
The anti-slip serrations in the aluminum surface of an expansion joint provide exceptional traction and safety. These precision-engineered grooves create a high-grip texture that prevents slips and skids, even in wet conditions. The serrated design ensures secure footing for pedestrians and vehicles, enhancing the joint’s overall safety and functionality. Engineered for durability and performance, these anti-slip serrations offer a reliable, long-lasting solution for maintaining a safe environment in various applications
Customizable Recessed Pan for Floor Finishes
The deep recessed pan allows for customization with various floor finishes, enabling the joint to blend seamlessly with different design styles while maintaining the structural support required for heavy-duty use.
Galvanized Steel Turn-bar for Structural Stability
The turn-bar component reinforces stability, enabling the system to accommodate multi-directional movement while keeping the cover aligned and stable.
Noise Reduction
Integrated elastomeric rubber gaskets between the aluminum profiles to cancel out metal-to-metal noise, enhancing acoustic comfort. This feature minimizes noise when subjected to movement, delivering a quiet and efficient joint cover solution for various applications.
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.
System Drawing
The Z-5500 expansion joint cover system drawings cover 200, 300 and 350 mm joint widths in floor-to-floor conditions, and 100, 200, 300 and 350 mm in floor-to-wall (ZK-5500) conditions. Each size is downloadable as DWG and PDF.
