Bituminous Flashing Tape – Black – Roofing & Waterproofing

Product Overview

Experience the reliability of heavy-duty, self-adhesive bituminous flashing tape, designed with a 100mm width and 10m length. This tape ensures a durable, watertight seal across various building substrates. It features a resin-modified bitumen adhesive combined with a protective foil facing, creating a robust barrier that resists tearing, weathering, and thermal cycling. Its pressure-sensitive adhesive adheres firmly to materials like brick, masonry, concrete roof tiles, timber, metal, and rigid plastics. The tape remains flexible at low temperatures and resistant to flow at high temperatures, guaranteeing consistent performance over time.
