Applications
ProctorPassive YouByute Sealing Tape is used for diffusion tight and watertight sealing behind façades and around windows and doors where not exposed to long term UV. The tape is also used for improving nail and screw penetration sealing.
Installation
As with all pressure sensitive butyl tapes, the YouByute Sealing Tape should be bonded as tension-free as possible. In order to ensure a strong bond, apply pressure with a squeegee or roller when applying the tape. Adhesion can be improved by applying higher pressure.
The tape must not to be used for bonding under mechanical load. The use of tape is not a substitute for any required fixing of materials.
Surfaces being adhered must be dry and free of surfactants, tensides, release agents like grease or oil, and dirt or dust.
The tape is resistant against oil and many organic solvents. Damp or cold surfaces may prove difficult to adhere to and should be allowed to dry and return to a temperature between +5°C + 40°C prior to application of tape.
It is recommended that porous or sandy surfaces being adhered to are preconditioned with a suitable primer. Due to the risk of plasticizer migration, the product‘s suitability on plastics and rubber should be tested.
