PENOSIL
Premium Expanding Tape 600 self-expanding sealing tape

VALUES

• Self-expanding, fills uneven surfaces.
• UV-resistant, seals against wind, dust, rain.
• Provides thermal and sound insulation.
• Helps to minimize the risk of mould and abscesses in building structures.

• Open cell structure allows joints to breath and moisture to escape.
• Permanently elastic.
• Safe for the environment and user.
• Resists extreme temperatures.

USAGE INSTRUCTIONS

Cut the tape approx. 3% longer than the joint length.
Do not use the first and last 3-5 cm of the tape roll.
Remove tape coating and press the tape to best adhering substrate at a distance of about 2-3 mm from the front edge of the joint.
If required, use a putty knife to fasten the tape correctly.
The measurements of the tape should meet the data in the table (see packaging). Possible movements in the structure should be taken into account. The characteristics of the tape are only ensured if the tape has been correctly compressed.

WG Expanding Tape manual

TIPS

• After opening, the sealant expands slowly. Expansion speed depends on temperature and is faster in warm temperatures.
• Ideal application temperature between +5 °C and +30 °C.
• Contact surfaces should be clean, dry, free of dirt, dust and oil, parallel and right-angled.
• To avoid under-compressed applications, use the dimension chart.

LIMITATIONS

• Do not install the tape in edges; instead, cut the tape and press the ends together under right angle. Press the excess part tightly in the edge.
• When splicing the tape, press the ends tightly together, avoid overlapping.
• Do not clean with pressurized water jet or with strong acid solvents.
• Do not paint.
• In high, humid and windy conditions, e.g. at the coast and on hills, a tape with higher density than in the table is recommended.
