Polystrip™ SA

Polyglass Polystrip SA is a self-adhering waterproofing tape composed of a slip resistant surface and UV resistant film laminated to an aggressive elastomeric (SBS) modified asphalt adhesive. The adhesive is protected by a siliconized release paper which allows quick and accurate installation.

Polystrip SA seals the roof deck seams and other construction details in compliance with project and/or building code requirements where a self-adhesive strip meeting ASTM D1970 standards is designated.

Polystrip SA may be covered with any Polystick or Polyanchor roofing underlayment or roofing felt. Polystrip SA can also be used as a general flashing membrane.

Typical Applications

  • Designed for applications on new or re-roof projects over roof deck joints
  • May be covered with Polyglass Polystick or Polyanchor underlayments
  • Can also be used as a general flashing membrane
  • Adhesion to plywood, OSB, metal and other approved substrates

Features and Benefits

  • “Seal the deck” joints from water intrusion.
  • Slip resistant walking surface.
  • Highly flexible and lay flat characteristics; transitions over uneven joints.
  • Asphaltic rubberized compound provides excellent sealability around nails.
  • Approved up to 250°F
  • Up to 60 days UV exposure.

Polystrip SA – roof deck joint tape take-off calculator

Designed to help roofing professionals estimate how many rolls of Polystrip SA joint tape are needed based on the square footage of a roof. Estimates are based on standard measurements for plywood and joint spacing to calculate the total linear footage of deck joints and provide an accurate roll count.

PG 350 LV

PG 350 LV is a low-VOC (Volatile Organic Compound) adhesive specifically engineered to serve as a cold-applied bonding agent. It is designed for secure attachment of SBS (StyreneButadiene-Styrene) modified bitumen base sheets as well as SBS modified bitumen cap sheets, whether smooth or granulated, ensuring strong adhesion without the need for heat or open flames. As part of the PG adhesive product line, PG 350 LV is designed for markets that emphasize sustainability and lower environmental impact.

Features and Benefits

  • Adheres to substrate and superior lap shear adhesion.
  • Flexible with cohesive properties.
  • Eliminates the need for kettles and torches.
  • Excellent 24 hour strength; fully cured after 30 days.
  • Non-destructive to asphalt based roofing membranes.
  • Low odor and asbestos free.

Modifleece

Modifleece is a fleece-backed Styrene-Butadiene-Styrene (SBS) modified bitumen roofing membrane base sheet for use in multi-ply low-slope roofing systems. Utilizing a unique laminating process, a specially formulated dual compound is integrated into the polyester fabric to create a monolithic bond between the two components. The self-adhered side laps are protected with a release film which is removed at the time of application, exposing the aggressive self-adhered SBS compound which provides immediate watertight seams.
The proprietary SBS top compound offers quality waterproofing and weathering physical properties while the polyester fleece bottom surface allows application to multiple substrates by using the Polyglass LRF CR low rise foam adhesive. Modifleece is ideally suited for application directly over irregular or semi-rough surfaces such as Lightweight Insulating Concrete (LWIC) and re-cover over existing Modified Bitumen roofing systems and in areas where superior wind uplift resistance is required. Modifleece is applied using Polyglass LRF CR low rise foam adhesive in a spatter pattern while the top film surface offers application of a variety of Polyglass self-adhered or torched membranes.

Typical Applications

• Use as a base ply adhered to LWIC (Lightweight Insulating Concrete)
• Use as a base ply adhered to existing APP/SBS modified bitumen roofing system
• Over other approved substrates

Features and Benefits

• Versatile: over semi-rough/irregular substrates; under torch or self-adhered APP/SBS cap sheets
• Tough polyester reinforced bottom surface fabric provides strong foam adhesive bond for higher wind uplift resistance
• Provides a strong and durable waterproofing substrate for other roofing membrane plies
• Quick dry-in adhered non-penetrating system: no fasteners needed
• Extend life of existing roof systems and avoid costly tear-offs – increase warranty coverage
• Easy to install self-adhered side laps with immediate watertight seal

Polyanchor® SU

Polyanchor SU is a lightweight, nailable synthetic roof underlayment designed to protect the roof deck. Polyanchor SU is stronger than traditional felts for improved wind resistance, durability through heavy foot traffic and adverse weather conditions.
Polyanchor SU’s non-woven fiber surface top surface and polymeric coated bottom surface provides enhanced walkability.
Polyanchor SU is ideally suited for asphalt shingles, synthetic shingles, and cedar shake roof covering systems. Polyanchor SU is preferably matched with Polystick IR-Xe installed on the eaves and valleys for ice and water protection.

Typical Applications

• Water-resistant barrier on steep slope roofing under asphalt shingles, synthetic shingles,
and cedar shakes roof coverings
• Nailable steep slope underlayment over approved wood decks for temporary
waterproofing protection
• Used in conjunction with Polystick IR-Xe self-adhered shingle underlayment for greater ice
and water protection at eaves and valleys

Features and Benefits

• Improved tear strength and wind uplift resistance compared to felts
• Enhanced deck grip and walkability
• 90-day UV resistance
• Lightweight, 10 square roll provides quick roof coverage

Polystick® MX

Polystick MX is a self-adhered high-temp waterproofing underlayment for metal roof coverings and various other applications. Utilizing ADESO® dual-compound self-adhered technology, Polystick MX features a polymer modified bitumen upper compound and a proprietary self-adhesive SBS (elastomeric) compound on the bottom. A split release film that protects the self-adhesive compound allows for easy application.
Polystick MX features a cavitated slip-resistant top film surface which can be exposed up to 90 days. With a temperature resistance of up to 250°F, Polystick MX is ideally suited for high-temperature roof covering systems such as steel and aluminum panels.

Typical Applications

• Specifically designed as underlayment for high-temperature applications under metal
• Suitable for application under asphalt shingles and other approved roof coverings
• Over entire roof and/or for valleys, skylights and other critical areas

Features and Benefits

• ADESO dual-compound self-adhered technology
• Cavitated slip-resistant film surface with up to 90 days exposure
• Fiberglass reinforced for added strength and dimensional stability.
• Self-adhered technology increases labor efficiency and roof dry-in speed
• Asphaltic compound provides excellent sealability around nails
• Approved up to 250°F

Polyanchor® XFR

Polyanchor XFR is a fire-rated dual purpose ember and water resistant underlayment. Polyanchor XFR features a plastomeric modified bitumen upper compound and a self-sealing SBS modified compound on the bottom. Polyglass’ patented Burn-Shield Technology®
provides superior ember resistance. Polyanchor XFR features a slip-resistant embedded mineral aggregate walking surface which contributes to the overall ember resistance of the membrane. The bottom surface is sanded to protect the self-sealing compound. Polyanchor XFR is ideally suited for mechanically attaching under clay/concrete tile roof covering systems where ember resistance is required or desired.
