Description
Ratings

Backer Rod is extruded closed-cell polyethylene rod that is used in cracks, checks and gaps before filling them with log sealants such as Perma-Chink, Energy Seal, Woodsman and Check Mate 2. Caulk joints should not be more than 3/8" thick. Backer Rod provides a way to fill a deep crevice or gap while maintaining the proper sealant thickness for maximum performance. Backer Rod should also be used in checks over 1/4" wide before applying Check Mate 2.

Backing material and bond breaker
Will not absorb water
Heat and cold stable.

I want to thank Perma-Chink for all the guidance and help over the past year to make my house a home. I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday season.

I purchased a Check Kit on the website and it had everything I needed to seal the cracks and checks in my logs. I pushed backer rod into the cracks with a spatula tool and then used my caulking gun to apply Check Mate 2 over it. Very happy with the results.
