pitched roofs, on parapets and chimney stacks. It is also

Composition
Bond It FLASHING TAPE comprises heavy-duty facing coated with a
minimum 1.2mm thickness of pressure sensitive modified
bitumen. The adhesive content is specially formulated for
flexibility at low temperatures and resistance to flow at high
temperatures and an immediate bond is obtained by applying firm
hand pressure. The strength of the bond increases with time. The
thickness of the self-adhesive bitumen ensures very close contact,
even on comparatively rough surfaces, while the product’s
durability provides long-lasting protection combined with an
attractive appearance.
Supplied in rolls for fast and clean application and
conforms readily to awkward contours, providing
excellent weather protection. It can be used for all
flashing and roofing applications and general water
sealing repairs on masonry, asbestos, timber,
metal or glass. No special skills or tools are
required.
Preparation
All surfaces must be structurally smooth,
clean, dry and dust-free. Any loose matter
must be removed with a wire brush. Any
moss or lichen should be removed using a fungicidal wash, such as
Bond It MOULD STOP. Porous or rough surfaces should be primed
with BITUMEN PRIMER and allowed to dry before applying FLASHING
TAPE.
In very cold weather Tape should be stored indoors in warm
(18°C+) conditions overnight before use.
Application
1. Cut a section of FLASHING TAPE to the required length, remove
the release paper and press down the adhesive bitumen to the
previously prepared surface.
2. Ensure full contact by smoothing down with a cloth, taking care
to eliminate air bubbles.
3. Roll down the edges with a wall paper roller or trowel to make
a good edge seal. Take care to avoid damaging the FLASHING TAPE
surface.
4. Joined sections of FLASHING TAPE. should always be overlapped
by a minimum of 25mm (one inch) and well rolled down.
Note: in cold weather adhesion will be improved by storing the
roll in a warm room for 12 hours or more before use, or by gently
warming the backing strip during application.
DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES APPLY IN CONDITIONS BELOW 5oC. Not suitable for polycarbonate or acrylic glazing e.g.
conservatory roofs.
Storage
Store in a cool dry place. In very cold weather the flashing may
be softened by gentle application of air using a warm air gun.
