Description
Caulk Backer Rod 1/2" x 20'
Enhance the performance and longevity of your caulking projects with this 1/2" x 20' closed-cell backer rod. Designed to fill larger gaps before caulking, it prevents three-point bonding and ensures a clean, consistent seal. Ideal for expansion joints, pavement cracks, wall joints, and foundations, this polyethylene rod insulates, cushions, and provides a solid backing for a professional finish.
Whether you're working on driveways, sidewalks, or exterior walls, this backer rod simplifies application and reduces caulk usage by acting as a gap filler. Its water-resistant, non-absorbent material stands up to moisture while maintaining flexibility and durability.
