Soudal EPDM membrane fix | 0.8 x 150mm 20m - 130283

EPDM membrane for a weather-resistant seal in external facade applications, with a 20 mm self-adhesive butyl strip. Soudal EPDM Membrane facade strips provide a durable water and airtight seal around facade elements, window sills, and thresholds. Complies with CE: EN 13984. Thickness: 0.8 mm. Various roll widths available.Special characteristicsAir and watertightSelf-adhesive strip for adhesion to the facade element/window frame (= time-saving installation)Compatible with bitumenGood temperature resistanceExcellent resistance to UV radiation and all weather conditionsAlkali resistantResistant to microorganismsPermanently elasticFlexibleHigh tear resistanceComplies with EN13984ApplicationFor airtight and watertight sealing of connections, wall bases (protection against rising damp), and window and door connections: outer side of the inner leaf (before applying facade insulation), outer side of solid walls, outer side of ventilated facades, and under window sills or thresholds.Instructions for useDepending on the situation, the installation of EPDM Membrane Fix can be carried out before or after the installation of the facade element (e.g., window frame). Cut EPDM Membrane Fix 10 cm to 20 cm longer than the length of the relevant facade element (e.g., window frame). This provides 5 cm to 10 cm on both sides for overlapping the corners. Partially remove the protective film from the self-adhesive strip so that EPDM Membrane Fix can be adhered to the facade element (e.g., window frame). Remove the protective film evenly and then press firmly along the entire length to be covered. Avoid creases (= possible air leakage). Start at the bottom of the building element and work upwards for good drainage. After installing the facade element, fill the connection with the shell construction with a suitable PU foam (e.g., Flexifoam). After the foam has cured (and possibly been trimmed), EPDM Membrane Fix is bonded to the shell construction side with Soudaseal EPDM. To do this, apply a 5 to 6 mm thick and continuous (= airtight!) bead of adhesive. Calculate approximately 1 bead of adhesive per 5 cm of EPDM width. Adhere the foil, not too tightly, to the shell construction to absorb any movements between the different building elements, but avoid creases. Then press the foil evenly with a roller to create an adhesive layer 1 to 2 mm thick and approximately 25 mm wide. This ensures sufficient adhesion surface and allows the adhesive to cure properly. The overlapping parts of the EPDM Membrane Fix (e.g., in the corners) must be bonded using Soudaseal EPDM. The bond is only loadable after the adhesive has fully cured. Consult the technical data sheet of the adhesive for this.
