Sealants

Butyl Sealing Tapes

High Quality Butyl Rubber Sealing Compound

Uses

Roofing and cladding systems:

• Provides a weather tight seal for use with coated steal, aluminium and fibre cement roofing and cladding systems in side and end lap applications.
• For sealing side and end laps on GRP and Polycarbonate rooflights.
• For sealing perimeter flashings in roofing and cladding systems.
• Provides an (internal) “airtight” seal to enable compliance to building regulations and project specifications.
• For sealing steel gutter joints.

Joint Design

• Lapstrip is normally used in some form of lap joint. Good joint performance requires good initial contact between the strip and both surfaces of the joint. A positive compression during application allows both surfaces to gain maximum contact with the strip sealant. Lapstrip must have a nominal thickness just greater than maximum anticipated joint clearance.

Performance

• Full technical and COSHH data is available on our ranges of GCA and HP600 butyl tapes. Please request from our technical department.
• All our butyl sealing tapes comply to Class A as defined in the NFRC Technical Bulletin 36.
• The MCRMA Technical Paper 16 also offers practical advice with regards endlap sealing.
