Product Description
Black preformed high performance polyisobutylene (PIB) based sealing tape.
Applications
Roofing & Cladding industry where it creates an excellent seal in situations such as side and end lap joints and the bead section particularly recommended for large corrugated end lap sheet profiles.
Heating & Ventilation market has found this product to be preferable to other methods of sealing flanges on ducting due to its ease of use and solvent free formulation.
Automotive uses include sealing around the frames if sun roofs.
Greenhouse manufacturers include this product to seal between the glazing and framework.
Caravan manufacturers have many applications such as sealing between mouldings and the outer skin, lap joints on the body work and other areas where fittings are attached piercing the outer skin.
Fire Protection is enhanced by use of an intumescent version 0802FR.
Damp Proofing is used for bonding & sealing applications such as cavity trays and polythene membranes giving full Radon & Methane gas protection.
Features & Benefits
Cost effective

Application notes
Should be applied to surface between +4 and +40°c temperature range, surfaces should be clean, dry and grease free. Unwind and lightly press into position leaving the release paper in place. On forming the joint the release paper is removed and the closing surface pushed firmly in place, applying even pressure along the length of the joint and mechanically fixed.
