In today's modern environment, almost all MHE fleets are electric. This means that the wheels are extremely hard and small, which often wreaks havoc on floor joints. Due to these small hard wheels, traditional joints have a hard time holding up in such high traffic facilities. It is not uncommon for joints to continue to deteriorate even after they have been properly repaired.
The Sinus Slide® repair joint has a unique 2 x 5 mm sinus wave shape, which is not realized by the MHE wheels themselves when crossing the joint.
IMPORTANT: It must be determined that a known and adequate load transfer system is in place. Refer to "HC Sinus Slide® joints for lasting repairs", which describes the two different methods of repairs of existing floor joints.
Before and after video of floor joint - HCJ Sinus Slide® repair joint
This is a very busy baggage operation where the floor
joints were experiencing continued deterioration even after multiple repair
attempts.
The Problem: The continued impacts from the wheels were the culprit. Prior joint repairs did not address this culprit. Rather, they only attempted to fix the symptom, the spalled out joints.
The Solution: The HCJ Sinus Slide® repair joint has a unique 2 x 5 mm sinus wave shape. This unique sinus wave geometry is not realized by the wheels themselves when crossing the joint. By eliminating the culprit, this best assures a sustainable solution.

Other Armored Joints
THE COSINUS SLIDE® JOINT
Cosinus Slide® armored joint incorporates the latest state of the art technology and changes the way we think of joints. This new jointing solution is revolutionary because the joint becomes the floor. It is like there is no joint. The unique sinus wave geometry completely eliminates any potential impacts from wheeled traffic. Continuous load transfer is accomplished by the Sinus-Cosinus geometry.
THE E-SLIDE JOINT®
Not all floors require the enormous load transfer capacity of the Cosinus Slide®. Coming in at a comparable price to a standard doweled armored joint, the e-Slide Joint® was created to provide a more economical priced sinus wave armored joint.
THE E-STRAIGHT® JOINT
The e-straight construction joint is our new solution for concrete industrial floors with less static (racks) and dynamic (traffic) load requirements.
THE HC MINI OMEGA® JOINT
The range of the HC-Mini Omega joint is especially designed for applications in, lighter use industrial floors on elevated bearing slabs, stage floors, various commercial applications, parking structures, and also in light, small industrial floors in buildings.
