PS 76mm Secur Tape™

Product Data

Pressure-Sensitive Securtape™ Simplify your next EPDM installation with their Pressure Sensitive 76mm (3") SecurTAPE. SecurTAPE offers uniform width and adhesive thickness and is manufactured using a clear poly film for application ease.

Intended Uses Designed for use with RubberBond EPDM Roofing Systems, SecurTAPE is used in conjunction with HP-250 EPDM primer to bond EPDM membranes together in the field for long-term splice strength. (Note. Not required when using Factory Applied Tape membrane.)

Features and Benefits • Available in 76mm wide by 30.5m -long rolls • Manufactured using a clear poly film • Excellent long-term splice strength • Greater peel and shear strength than other tapes available in today’s marketplace.

Application 1. Remove dirt and excess dust from the splice area by wiping with a clean rag. If there is a heavy layer of dirt present, clean the splice area thoroughly with Weathered Membrane Cleaner. This process is essential on membrane that has been exposed for a number of weeks. 2. Mark the bottom sheet with a crayon at the edge of the top sheet along the entire splice length as a guide. 3. Application of HP-250 EPDM Primer: a) PRE-KLEENED™ Membrane: Roller-apply the primer to the area of the membrane to be seamed with a short nap-length paint roller. The coated area will be free of globs or puddles.

4. The entire surface where the tape will be applied must be cleaned and primed. The adhesive will not adhere to dusted/dirty surfaces. Any residual surface contamination will be detrimental to the bond strength of the adhesive.

5. Allow the Primer to dry until it does not transfer to a dry finger touch.

6. Install SecurTAPE immediately after the Primer flashes off to minimize potential dust contamination and promote adhesion in colder weather.

7. Unroll approximately 1 m of SecurTAPE. Align the tape with a marked line and press tape down to bottom sheet using firm, even hand pressure. Continue for the length of the splice. Tape roll ends should be overlapped 25 mm. Allow top sheet to rest on poly backing after application. A minimum of 3mm of tape must extend beyond the splice edge. A continuous piece of SecurTAPE must be used at all field and factory splice intersections.

8. Rolling the SecurTAPE with a 2"-wide hand roller after application to the primed substrate will significantly reduce the frequency of air blisters in the completed field seam.

9. Pull the poly backing from the SecurTAPE beneath the top sheet and allow the top sheet to fall freely onto the exposed tape.

10. Press top sheet onto tape using firm, even hand pressure across the splice towards the splice edge.

Paving Supports Product Data

RubberBond Paving Supports Quickly and easily install a paving or decking system to the roofing surface. The paving supports are placed directly to the membrane without the use of adhesives or fasteners of any sort. These supports quickly and easily resolve problems arising from the installation of a paving system. The support consists of a high resistance base which is placed directly on to the waterproofing cap sheet. The paving slabs are then placed directly onto the supports without the use of concrete or adhesives of any sort. The base is fitted with guides which position and anchor perfectly the paving slabs and which at the same time act as expansion joints. The base of the support is made of HDPE and its shape allows rainwater to drain and flow off easily on the underlying waterproofing membrane, thus also eliminating any chance of ponding caused by the supports themselves trapping water. All of the supports are modular and can be stacked so as to achieve the height or thickness of gap underneath the paving desired, and eliminating any unevenness of the roof deck itself. The supports are designed to eliminate cracking and damaging of the waterproofing membrane caused by expansion and contraction of the paving or damage caused by walking on the paving. Over and above these advantages it is also a very quick and cost effective means of installing the paving. The paving can be readily removed and replaced should it become damaged or should inspection of the waterproofing be necessary, without any damage at all.. Intended Uses Support for paving slabs or timber decking joists to create a roof top terrace.

Features and Benefits • Circular pad Ø145mm with a 15mm lift, also 3mm flange available for levelling of slabs. • Fully interlocking when stacking allowing for a range of heights, steps or slopes to leave a level surface. • Bases fitted with guides which position and anchor the slabs or decking rafters. These guides allow drainage gap for the slabs and allow for expansion between sections. Application* 1 Install the RubberBond roof and details as per specification. 2. Sweep the roof surface to remove any and all debris. 3. Lay the slabs so that each disc supports the corners of 4 slabs. Where they abut walls or steps the support disc are easily divided into halves or quarters. 4. All cut edges of slabs should be at edges that abut upstands.
