METAL EDGE DETAIL: Used to create a nished appearance
and prevent water from running down the surface of fascias
and walls. The Metal Edge is made from painted aluminum and
galvanized or painted steel.
MULTI-PURPOSE BONDING ADHESIVE: RoofKit Multi-
Purpose Bonding Adhesive is used to adhere the eld membrane
to walls, metal, curbs, and rubber to rubber applications. It
should be thoroughly stirred before using. All membrane-to-
membrane seam applications require RoofKit Primer and 5"
Cover Strip be installed over the entirety of the seam.
PIPE BOOT AND CLAMP: Pre-molded EPDM boot. The
most cost effective way to ash pipe protrusions. The stainless
steel clamp is used to secure the top of the pipe to the Pipe Boot.
RUBBER CAULK: Applied at the top of all Termination Bar
applications; at the top of Pipe Boots and after the pipe boot
clamp has been installed, seams, patches, membrane ashings,
and to adhere shingle tabs to RoofKit Rubber Roong
Membrane.
SEAM PRIMER: Solvent-based primer used to clean and
prime the RoofKit Rubber Roong Membrane before applying
Seam Tape or any cured or uncured tape product. Applied using
a scrub pad. DO NOT APPLY PRIMER DIRECTLY TO TAPE.
Primer is only applied to surfaces being prepared to accept tape
products.
SEAM TAPE: Butyl tape used to splice two layers of membrane
into a watertight seam. Available in a width of three-inches (3").
SIX (6") REINFORCED STRIP: RoofKit Reinforced
Rubber Roong Membrane in six inch (6") wide strips. Used
with Multi-Purpose Bonding Adhesive and Fastening Screws
and Plates to secure base ashings at walls and curbs (and all
angle changes).
SUBSTRATE: The surface on which the membrane is
applied (brick, concrete block, high-density wood berboard,
plywood, OSB, isocyanurate insulation). NOTE: EPDM rubber
membrane should not be applied to asphalt roong, shingles, or
polystyrene insulation.
