Product highlights

  1. Flexible butyl adhesive

    The soft butyl rubber tape conforms to membrane lap joints to support continuous contact between overlapping EPDM sheets.

  2. Self-adhesive lap bonding

    Designed to bond and seal side and end laps in EPDM membranes. Apply with a compatible primer and consolidate the joint with a hand roller.

  3. Controlled placement

    A removable release film protects the adhesive before bonding and supports controlled placement along the prepared lap.

Product overview

Joining EPDM sheets

WP-TAP-000001 is a black butyl rubber tape for side and end laps between EPDM waterproofing membranes. Place it inside the overlap and use compatible primer and a hand roller to complete the seam. Ask us to review other surfaces or uses before selecting this tape.

Test results for the standard size

TDS Rev.01 reports these JC/T 942-2022 results for the 80 mm × 20 m × 1.0 mm specification. The laboratory values are not guaranteed minimums for each batch and do not establish performance for custom sizes or site conditions.

Property Measured value or result
Initial bond force at 23 °C 80 N; no adhesive failure
Adhesion under shear 3.9 N/mm
Peel strength: standard conditions 0.70 N/mm
Elastic recovery 80%

Application

Prepare the EPDM lap surfaces and apply a compatible primer. Agree primer coverage and drying time, lap dimensions and rolling requirements before work.

  1. Position and bond the tape along the prepared lap.
  2. Remove the release film and bring the overlapping sheet into contact.
  3. Press the full joint with a hand roller.

For the related standard or self-adhesive EPDM membranes, confirm the selected membrane-and-tape combination and lap detail before installation.

Handling, storage and shelf life

  • Store at room temperature in a dry, ventilated place away from direct sunlight.
  • Lay cartons flat and stack no more than five cartons high. Keep packaging intact and protect against impact and cuts.
  • Keep away from fire and open flames. Prevent contact with acids, alkalis, oils and organic solvents during storage and transport. The TDS alkali results apply to the stated medium and conditions.

The shelf life is 12 months under these storage conditions. Confirm the start date with your order. Dimensions are nominal unless a tolerance is stated.

Questions before you order

Do I need primer for a self-adhesive tape?

Yes. Apply a compatible primer to the membrane lap surfaces and press the completed joint with a hand roller. Agree surface preparation, drying time and lap dimensions for the selected system.

Can I use the test temperatures as a working range?

No. The heat, cold and ageing tests use separate laboratory conditions. Send your expected site and service temperatures so we can review application requirements.

How long can I store the tape?

The stated shelf life is 12 months at room temperature under the specified storage conditions. Confirm the start date for your order. Shelf life does not define installed service life or warranty coverage.
