ME104 - Bituminous Tape - Illbruck

ME104 - Bituminous Tape - Illbruck

0.05 mm thick synthetic laminated membrane with a modified 1.0 mm thick bitumen layer with removable protective film on the bitumen layer.

Membrane for sealing connecting joints between façade elements and load-bearing constructions in cavity walls, for sealing connection joints for corrugated sheets or profiled sheets, etc.

Advantage: 

• Excellent grip.
• Waterproof and vaporproof.
• Easy to apply.
• No additional mechanical fasteners are required.
• Self-adhesive tape.

Implementation:

• Treat porous substrates beforehand using Butyl Primer & Bitumen ME901 (see technical instructions).
• On very rough surfaces, properly coat the pores (butcher).
• Allow the adhesion primer to dry until it is still slightly sticky to the touch.
• Cut the strip to the desired length. Remove the protective film and place the tape straight.
• Press the tape, gradually removing the rest of the protective film (press preferably with a rubber gasket roller).
• Respect an overlap of at least 50 mm.
• Horizontal watertightness on vertical façade surfaces.
• Support the transition from the inner leaf to the masonry (outer sheet) using an Eterboard fibre-cement board, for example.
• Retain bitumen at least 10 mm from the front of the masonry.
• For frames, the butyl angle can be used to ensure the airtightness and water tightness of the joints.
• In case of outside temperatures below +10°C, store the strip at room temperature.
• In case of low temperatures (<10°C), it is advisable to use a hairdryer.
• Avoid overheating of bitumen.

Support Compatibility: 

Bituminous products may show signs of bleeding or migrate by absorbing plasticizers and/or solvents from building materials (PVC, Lexan, PU sealants, etc.). It is recommended to carry out a preliminary test.

Health and safety precautions:
