What is WR Meadows PERMINATOR TAPE used for?
It is the self-adhesive seam tape for PERMINATOR underslab vapor barrier. It seals lap seams, attaches the barrier to footings and protrusions, and tapes down patches over damaged areas.
How many rolls of PERMINATOR does one carton cover?
One carton of 12 rolls adheres approximately 10 rolls of PERMINATOR. Each tape roll is 4 inches wide and 180 ft long.
How is the tape applied to seams?
Overlap all lateral and butt joints in the vapor barrier 6 inches and tape them with PERMINATOR TAPE. The area of adhesion must be free of dust, dirt and moisture so the pressure-sensitive adhesive bonds fully.
How do I seal a pipe penetration?
Slit the first layer of vapor barrier around the pipe. Cut a collar from PERMINATOR at least 12 inches wide and 1 1/2 times the pipe circumference long, cut fingers half its width, then wrap and tape the collar to the pipe and tape the fingers to the bottom layer.
How long can PERMINATOR TAPE stay exposed to sunlight?
The data sheet lists a maximum UV exposure time of seven days. Cover the installation within that time.
How do I repair damaged PERMINATOR?
Cut a piece of vapor barrier large enough to overlap the damage by at least 6 inches in all directions, clean the adhesion areas of dust, dirt and moisture, and tape down all edges with PERMINATOR TAPE.
