PROPERTIES

WEATHERMATE

™

Straight

Flashing combines a blue

tough coated woven polypropy-

lene film facer with a butyl rub-

ber adhesive that forms a strong

mechanical and chemical bond to

most building materials. A plastic

film release liner provides a more

consistent peel than plain paper

liners.

WEATHERMATE Straight

Flashing contains no asphalt.

The butyl rubber adhesive tech-

nology, a key component of

this flashing, is considered

superior to asphalt adhesives in

compatibility with commonly

used building envelope caulking

materials, insulated and non-

insulated sheathing, housewraps

and window casing materials.

Properties of WEATHERMATE

Straight Flashing are presented in

Table 1. Performance testing
