Erie Metal Specialities

Through our excellent customer service and thoroughly tested (and proved) products, we believe that once you try us, you won't leave us. Erie Metal Specialties, Inc. (EMS) was founded in 1986 to provide first-class products and exceptional service to our customers. Through the years, architects, engineers, and contractors have come to expect high quality products, coupled with excellent technical support when working with EMS. Throughout our history, we have developed products and services to meet the expansion joint needs of the construction industry.

As anyone who has worked with exterior expansion joints knows, there is no such thing as a "simple" project. Although the products we provide are always of the same, consistent high quality, we understand that the projects where they are used are more like "snowflakes" - no two projects are ever the same.

Here at EMS, we are committed to bringing you some of the best expansion joint products in the industry, serving all of your waterproofing needs. From foam seals and winged joint systems to cover plates and fire blankets, we are sure to have the product that will fit your needs.

The Traffic-Grade Contour Seal (CST) is composed of a high density, open micro-cell foam impregnated with a hydrophobic polymer sealing compound. It has been developed to meet the high performance needs of state and federal DOT projects. The CST seals have constant internal forces built into each cell.
