High performance self-adhered flashing with

PRODUCT DATA SHEET
The Better the Seal, the Better the
Performance
The primary purpose of a flashing tape is to prevent the migration
of water and air through window and door openings. Product
performance depends on the adhesive bond between the flashing
and the substrate. This is especially true for irregularly surfaced
materials such as OSB. The better the adhesive seals itself into the
peaks and valleys of the substrate, the better the barrier against
water and air migration.
Moisture Control is the First Step to
Mold Control
Water from both exterior and interior sources is among the worst
enemies of building structures. When moisture enters and remains
within the wall system, it creates a favorable environment for the
development of rot, mold and mildew. Repairing these types of
problems can be very dicult and extremely costly.
Air Control is the First Step to Better
Energy Performance
The key to optimizing energy performance is preventing the
movement of air both into and out of the building envelope. Air
leaks around window and door openings make it dicult to keep
a comfortable indoor environment, forcing the HVAC system to
work harder, while driving up energy costs.
A properly integrated flashing tape that adheres and seals
aggressively to the substrate will create the most eective barrier
against water and air migration while acting as a drainage plane to
shed water down the exterior of the building envelope.
