Z Bar Water Barrier Range
Product Description
ZBAR Water Barrier Disks – Prevent Water Penetration in Formwork Tie Systems
The ZBAR Water Barrier Range includes high-quality steel disks designed to provide a physical barrier against water ingress in concrete structures where ZBAR tie rod systems are used. These disks are placed mid-point along the ZBAR within the concrete pour, creating a watertight break that helps prevent water tracking along the tie rod path.
Available in two sizes – Small Disk and Large Disk – these barriers are essential for water-retaining structures such as basements, water tanks, tunnels, and retaining walls.
Key Features:
- Heavy-duty steel construction for maximum durability
- Provides a physical water stop in the centre of ZBAR installation
- Compatible with standard 15mm or 20mm ZBAR systems
- Available sizes:
- Small Disk – Code:
5ZBARWB-SD - Large Disk – Code:
5ZBARWB-LD

Installation Note:
Install the water barrier disk at the centre of the wall thickness along the ZBAR rod, ensuring it is fully encapsulated in concrete for maximum effectiveness.
