ROOFSEAL

DESCRIPTION
ROOFSEAL is a prefabricated polymer modified bitumen membrane designed for economy and easy applications. ROOFSEAL "P" is reinforced with a non woven polyester fabric, whereas ROOFSEAL "G" is reinforced with a glasfiber mat. The reinforcement is impregnated and coated on both sides with polymer modified bitumen.

USES
ROOFSEAL membrane is ideal for a wide range of waterproofing applications including roofs, basements, tunnels, car parks and resevoirs.

OUTSTANDING FEATURES
· Total impermiability.
· Good bondability & seam integrity.
- Stability at high temperature. 
- Good performance at a broad temperature range.                
- Good flexibility.          
- Compatible with all normal roofing and building components.      .  

STANDARDS                          
ROOFSEAL complies with the tolerance levels of ASTM and UEAtc standards.

INSTALLATION TOOLS REQUIRED
Gas torch, Knife, Trowel, Measuring tape, Marking string, Gloves.

APPLICATION
ROOFSEAL is installed by torch welding method, loose-laid or fully bonded to substrate. When loose-laid, only laps are bonded together. Peripheries and protrusions are sealed according to specifications.

COVERAGE RATE

For flat areas

 

 1.13 M2/M2 per layer

For 30 cm. girth flashing

0.35 M2/Mt/ length

Average wastage

3 - 5%

 
 

 

 

                        

TORCHING GUIDELINES
The underside of the membrane should be torched just enough to superficially melt the bitumen. Excessive heating may damage the reinforcement. Overlaps should be reheated from the top and resealed with a trowel to ensure seam integrity.

For details of installation methods and flashing requirements, consult the relevant BITUMAT Design and Installation Manual.

FINISHES                              
ROOFSEAL  is available in two basic finishes: 
- Black smooth finish with polyethylene surfaces for covered pplications.
- Granule surfacing for exposed applications.

QUALITY CONTROL
In addition to stringent regular tests by BITUMAT laboratory, our products are tested periodically by Bureau Veritas &  SOCOTEC, Paris, France.
