Installation Guide
- Confirm the joint gap falls within the 50–125 mm range and clean both edges of laitance, grout and debris.
- Set out the GalaxyJoint frames along each edge, checking they are parallel and level with the finished floor.
- Mark, drill and surface-fix the frames into the slab using suitable anchors, working section by section.
- Verify the tapered frames sit flush so rolling loads transit without a lip.
- Fit the integral microseal and insert into the frame channels along the full joint length.
- Press the serrated cover into position and confirm a continuous, slip-resistant surface.
- Clean the finished joint and check movement clearance across the full run.
Maintenance & Care
GalaxyJoint is easy to keep clean in busy interiors. Sweep or wash the serrated surface regularly and clean with a neutral detergent diluted in water, rinsing with clean water; avoid acidic cleaners that attack aluminium, and clear any debris caught above the microseal. Inspect the microseal and cover during routine facility checks. Worn seal or cover sections can be replaced without removing the fixed frames, so high-traffic areas such as terminals and hospital corridors stay open with minimal downtime.

GalaxyJoint — Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Dseal GalaxyJoint floor expansion joint cover?
GalaxyJoint is a high-traffic, surface-mounted floor expansion joint cover for airports, hospitals, transit stations and convention centres. It spans 50–125 mm joint gaps with a serrated, slip-resistant surface and an integral microseal.
What joint gap range does GalaxyJoint cover?
GalaxyJoint suits joint gaps from 50 mm to 125 mm (2″ to 5″). For narrower or wider openings, Dseal offers companion systems such as ParkGuard and LevelJoint — share your gap width with the team for the right match.
How much thermal movement does GalaxyJoint allow?
GalaxyJoint accommodates ±18% thermal movement of the joint width, letting the floor expand and contract with temperature changes while the cover stays seated and safe.
What makes the GalaxyJoint surface slip-resistant?
The cover has a serrated top surface that improves grip underfoot and for rolling loads, an important safety feature in crowded airports, hospitals and transit halls.
What is the integral microseal on GalaxyJoint?
The microseal is a built-in seal element that blocks debris and liquids from collecting in the joint. It keeps the joint cleaner and protects the structure beneath from spills and washdown water.
Can GalaxyJoint carry heavy rolling loads?
Yes. Its tapered frames are engineered for heavy rolling loads such as baggage carts, gurneys and service trolleys, letting wheels transit the joint smoothly without snagging.
Is GalaxyJoint suitable for retrofit installations?
Yes. GalaxyJoint is a surface-mount system that works for both new construction and retrofit, so it can upgrade existing high-traffic floors without major demolition.
How is GalaxyJoint installed?
The frames are surface-fixed level along each joint edge, the microseal and insert are fitted, and the serrated cover is pressed in. The Installation Guide above gives the full step-by-step sequence.
Does GalaxyJoint help with hygiene in hospitals?
The integral microseal and easy-clean serrated surface help keep the joint free of debris and liquids, which supports cleaning regimes in hospitals and healthcare interiors.
What is the difference between GalaxyJoint and StarGuard?
GalaxyJoint is a high-traffic system for 50–125 mm gaps with a serrated surface, microseal and heavy rolling-load capacity, while StarGuard is a low-profile cover for lighter foot and trolley traffic. The Dseal team can advise which fits your footfall.
Can GalaxyJoint be supplied in custom sizes?
Yes. Dhawan Associates manufactures Dseal profiles in-house and can supply GalaxyJoint matched to your gap width within range and floor build-up. Send drawings to the team for a tailored specification.
What maintenance does GalaxyJoint need?
Sweep or wash the serrated surface regularly, clean with a neutral detergent and water, and clear debris above the microseal. Replace worn seal or cover sections without disturbing the fixed frames.
Does GalaxyJoint comply with any standards?
GalaxyJoint aluminium profiles are manufactured in compliance with ASTM B221-02 and the ASTM 6063 specification. Dseal manufacturing is certified to ISO 9001:2015, ISO 14001:2015 and ISO 45001:2018.
