Grouts and sealants calculator

The calculator is an extremely simple to use tool and a useful aid in estimating the amount of product required to seal grout lines and elastic joints.

Calculation of sealant consumption

How to size the elastic joint?
The calculation is based on the actual volume to be filled and the product density.
The provided data should be considered indicative and for estimation purposes only, as certain factors that may still affect the actual consumption cannot be considered (for example, tile roughness, excess residual product, surface irregularities, etc.).

Elastic joint design

a - width of jointb - depth of joint
from 0 to 4 [mm]increase the width of the joint
from 5 to 9 [mm]b = a
from 10 to 20 [mm]b = 10 [mm]
from 21 to 40 [mm]b = a/2[mm]
greater than 40 [mm]reduce the width of the joint
joint
To set the depth of the joint and prevent sealant adhering to the bottom, insert MAPEFOAM closed-cell, extruded foam polyethylene cord, supplied in rolls in various lengths according to the diameter of the cord, down into the joint.
