Tested tape quality in accordance with DIN 18542-BG2
- Can be used up to a building height of 20 m
- High level of safety due to fulfilment of all BG2 test parameters
In addition to BG2: tested direct resistance to weathering and UV
- Increased safety and extended range of applications thanks to additional testing
- Prevention of complaints and cost-intensive re-working
High tape tolerance
- The tape seals reliably even with joint tolerances
- Cost saving due to the use of few tape sizes
Time-saving application
- No pre-treatment with primer is required
- No use of processing tools
Pre-compressed and self-adhesive
The pre-compressed, one-sided self-adhesive VKP Basic sealing tape seals joints reliably and permanently in a single step.
After the compression is released, the sealing tape develops a resilience that presses firmly against the joint edges and compensates for uneven areas of the joint.
Depending on the installation period, the non-adhesive side develops a slight anchoring on the adjacent building material.
Select the correct tape size:
1. Define the joint widths from the structure and classify in the "resistance to driving rain" scale
2. Then select the required tape size
3. Select the art. no. according to the tape colour
4. Define the roll quantity
The expansion speed of VKP Basic depends on the temperature. The tape's expansion behaviour is not subject to any particular specification and is based only on empirical values. The tape's reset time depends on the storage and processing temperature. The following applies: The longer the storage times and the lower the processing temperature, the longer the reset times.
In high temperatures, store the tape in a cool location; in low temperatures, store in a warm location.
** Only for installation resistant to driving rain.
The usage instructions are recommendations based on the tests we have conducted and our experience; carry out your own tests before each application. Due to the large number of applications and storage and processing conditions, we do not assume any liability for a specific application result. Insofar as our free customer service provides technical information or acts as an advisory service, no responsibility is assumed by this service except where the advice or information given falls within the scope of our specified, contractually agreed service or the advisor was acting deliberately. We guarantee consistent quality of our products. We reserve the right to make technical changes and further develop products.
