These patented 12 mm diameter grooved rods carry a potent water-repellent material. Inserted into pre-drilled 12 mm holes along a building's mortar lines, the material forms a highly effective barrier against rising damp and establishes a damp-proof course. This prevents further rising damp and contributes in wall drying. Accredited with BBA approval certificate 97/3363, Dryrod Damp-Proofing Rods have undergone rigorous independent testing to ensure a reliable solution for low and high porosity mortar, low alkalinity and high alkalinity mortar and lime-based mortar. Other benefits include consistent application, a clean and simple application process and all-weather application capability. Appearance: White, cog-shaped solid fibre rod. Size & Packaging: Pack of 10 rods, each 180 mm in length and 12 mm in diameter. Coverage: For 4.5” thick wall, 42 rods per 10 m are required. For 9” thick wall, 84 rods per 10 m are required. The application involves drilling 12 mm holes along mortar lines, with specific depth and length guidelines provided. For thicker walls or rubble in-fill, Dryzone Damp Proofing Cream is recommended. Once installed, Dryrod Damp-Proofing Rods typically cure over a month, subject to site conditions. Replastering using a suitable damp-resistant plaster, like Dryzone System Renovation plaster, is crucial for effective wall drying. Dryrod Damp-Proofing Rods are produced in accordance with ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 quality and environmental management systems. Review: Easy to use - Quick and Easy to use.

Instructions are on their website and on the packet. Very easy. **Q: Do you install these on the internal walls or external or both as traditionally you inject from both sides when damp proofing?** A: Good morning,Thank you for your enquiry into Safeguard and our Dryrod product.If you have a solid 9" wall, the Dryrod can be inserted from either the inside or the outside, whichever is more convenient.Alternatively, for a cavity wall with two skins of 4.5" brickwork, the Dryrod can be cut (using the Dryrod cutter) to fit this type of wall. You can then insert the Dryrod from both the interior and the exterior.It is important to note that the Dryrod is designed to be inserted directly into the mortar course. We recommend to drill 90% of the way through that particular skin of wall to insert the Dryrod into.I hope this answers your questions but please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions.Kind regards,Ben BurnsSafeguard Europe Ltd01403 210204 **Q: Will these work in a wooden log cabin wall?** A: I'd use, a waterproofing compound paint, containing fibre for this job.. Or the black rubbery paint, for flat roofs. Or indeed, a really good wood rot protection paint, or sealer... 👍 **Q: Can I drill into the external render for a double 9" brick wall where I cant see mortar line. So directly in brick behind external render** A: Yes it shouldn’t be a problem if you’re not exactly on the mortar line. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Easy to use *by A***S on 30 December 2025* Quick and Easy to use.
