RiveStop Tie-Bolt Hole Waterproofing

RiveStop System – Revolutionary Tie-Bolt Hole Sealing for Concrete Structures

The UK’s leading waterproofing innovation, the RiveStop System is a patented, high-performance solution for sealing tie-bolt holes in concrete walls. Offering massive time and cost savings, RiveStop outperforms traditional mortar-based methods, delivering up to 90% savings in both man-hours and materials.

How RiveStop Works

The RiveStop System is composed of three key components designed to streamline the waterproofing process:

✔ RivePipe – A reusable, recyclable formwork tube that protects tie bars inside concrete and ensures a clean, uniform tie-hole upon removal.
✔ RiveOut – A manual extraction tool that removes RivePipe tubes from concrete walls in seconds.
✔ RiveStop – A patented rivet system that expands up to 50% of its original diameter, providing a hermetic, permanent waterproof seal for tie-bolt holes.

Installation Steps:
1️⃣ Insert RiveStop into the riveting machine.
2️⃣ Place into the hole to be sealed.
3️⃣ Rivet until the rivet shank is cut—sealing the tie-bolt hole instantly.

✅ No special training required – The system can be installed by anyone in any weather conditions.

Key Benefits

✔ Reliable – 100% waterproof and gas-tight, outperforms traditional PVC tube sealing methods.
✔ Reusable – RivePipe can be reused up to 20 times, reducing waste and material costs.
✔ Ultra-Fast Installation – 10x faster than mortar-based solutions—achieving up to 500 RiveStop installations per hour with an electric rivet method.
✔ Adaptable – Available in various lengths and diameters to suit all concrete wall thicknesses.
✔ Certified & Safe – Provides barriers against water pressure, sound pollution, fire, acidic and saline solutions, and radon gas.
✔ Durable – The expanding rivet mechanism adjusts to the shape of the hole, delivering a permanent, watertight seal for the entire lifespan of the structure.
