Wider rolls of 50mm, 75mm and 100mm are commonly used for lap jointing of DPM Membranes and general jointing of materials in roofing and cladding. Benefits of this tape include good resistance to abrasion, corrosion and moisture, high dielectric strength and excellent conformability. This tape is manufactured to meet BS EN 60454-3-12:2006, IEC 62321:2008 and UL510 certificated (Flame retardant).
Double Sided Jointing Tape
We can also offer a double sided jointing tape most suitable for use in roofing and cladding where it creates an excellent seal in situations such as side and end lap joints, heating and ventilation and damp proofing. Benefits of this tape include its instant seal, high pumping resistance, solvent free formula, nontoxic and cost effectiveness.
