What is butyl adhesive tape?

Butyl rubber adhesive tape stands for single-sided or double-sided rolled self-adhesive tape made of butyl rubber and self-protected by a release paper available in various sizes and colors. They can form an instant seal against water, air or dust, and remain permanently soft.

Structure

Butyl Tape is a highly tacky, self-fusing butyl rubber mastic, ideal for making water and humidity-resistant seals.
It is a high-tack sealant with excellent adhesion to metal, other roofing, and other insulating materials.
It maintains its tack and flexibility to temperatures as low as -20degree, and It maintains no flow at temperatures as high as 120 degrees.

Specification

Features

·Excellent mechanical properties: High bond strength and tensile strength, good elastic elongation, and strong adaptability to interface deformation and cracking

·Stable chemical properties: Excellent chemical resistance, weather resistance and corrosion resistance, the service life can be as long as 15 to 30 years according to the different butyl rubbers.

·Reliable application performance: Its adhesiveness, waterproofness, sealing, low-temperature resistance, high-temperature resistance, good followability, and good dimensional stability.

·Simple application process: Peel and stick. Easy to use without roasting.

Advantages

Excellent Adhesion.

High Elasticity provides resistance to shock, movement, and whether force.

Flexible & Versatile for easy adjustment before, during and after application.

Low-Temperature Resistance prevents sealing tape from cracked or shrink.

Anti-Corrosion.

Water-resistant material prevents the surface to corrode from moisture and steam.

Application

Household: Given the waterproof and advanced adhesive properties of butyl tape, it's ideal to be applied to areas wherein leakage and corrosion from humidity are common such as underground pipes and joints. It can also be used in ventilation systems, water pipes insulation, roofing repairs, dust removal equipment, and a lot more.

RVs: If you are the type person who is fond of DYI-ing everything in your RV, butyl tape is your best friend.

Exterior Walls: Joints and cracks in asbestos cement sheeting, cracks under masonry ties and anchorages, around wall penetrations (such as water pipes), gutters and down pipes. Joints between terraces and exterior walls, joints in parapets, roof edges, sides, flashing and joints.

Instructions
Different types and specifications of butyl tape are selected according to different waterproofing membranes, different construction methods, environmental temperature and humidity, etc.
Before application, the waterproof layer can be sealed and applied only after the quality of the previous project is qualified.
The application environment temperature needs to be 5ºC~45ºC, and corresponding measures should be taken when it exceeds the specified temperature range.
The surface of the base layer must be cleaned and kept dry and free from mud and oil.

Note:
 
1. Before use, please remove the tax, oil, dust and other dirt on the surface of the bonded plate.
 
2. The tape should be stored in a dry and cool place, away from heat, direct sunlight or rain.
 
3. Self-adhesive material, a paste in place to achieve the best waterproof effect.

Storage Advice

1. It should be stored in a dry and ventilated environment, and the storage temperature should not be higher than 35°C.
2. Keep away from fire, avoid exposure to the sun and rain and avoid contact with volatile solvents.
3. Store in a flat place.
