Product Overview
Cavity Wall Brick Weep Vent in a black finish, measuring 10mm × 65mm, designed to provide discreet, effective drainage and ventilation for cavity wall constructions.
Manufactured from high-quality polypropylene for long-term durability, UV stability, and resistance to decay or corrosion.Ensures the controlled release of water from the cavity while maintaining airflow to prevent condensation and damp.
Slimline front face allows unobtrusive integration within brickwork joints, preserving wall aesthetics. Suitable for use above lintels, cavity trays, and DPCs in both new build and refurbishment projects.
Neutral black colour complements modern brickwork and darker façades.
