The Edge Strip Kits (ESKS), synthetic cork product used to provide a perimeter barrier when pouring self-leveling underlayment (SLU), are now available for purchase online. The ESKS come in three packaging sizes: 24x2x5/16 in. strips (6 or 12 per kit); and a new a new size for ledger strips measuring 48x5/16x2 in.
Each strip cuts easily with a standard utility knife and is self-adhesive for an easy, no-mess installation, replacing the need for spray foam products or slow drying caulks.The ESKs peel and stick around the perimeter of the area where you plan to use the SLU. This acts to contain the SLU from escaping into adjacent areas, under walls, or through holes drilled for plumbing or electrical pipes. Edge Strips can also be cut lengthwise and stuck onto themselves to form an "L" to act as a temporary barrier at the door thresholds or vanity footprint.
