SOPRAGRIP F is a self-adhesive membrane composed of SBS modified bitumen and a non-woven polyester exposed reinforcement. The
self-adhesive side is protected by a silicone release film. The non-woven polyester top surface provide good adhesion properties for liquid applied air/vapour barrier and exterior finishing coating. SOPRAGRIP F is used as a cover strip over COLPHENE ICF membranes top termination. It is also used as reinforcement over gypsum or concrete board joints before installation of a liquid air/vapour barrier membrane.
SURFACE PREPARATION
SOPRAGRIP F must be installed on clean, dry and solid substrates. It can be adhered directly to polystyrene. Other substrate such as concrete and gypsum boards must be primed with SOPRASEAL STICK PRIMER or ELASTOCOL STICK H2 O.
INSTALLATION
SOPRAGRIP F is adhered to the substrate by peeling off the silicone release film. Once the membrane is in place, apply pressure over the whole surface using a membrane roller to ensure a complete and uniform adhesion. Do not overlap the membrane on the non-woven polyester. As required, install a 150 mm (6 in) piece of COLPHENE ICF or SOPRASEAL STICK 1100 T membrane before installing SOPRAGRIP F in order to ensure watertightness. Minimum application temperature: -10 °C (14 °F) Service temperature: up to 70 °C (158 °F) UV exposure: SOPRAGRIP F is not intended to be left exposed. Cover the membrane within 30 days of installation. FOR COMPLETE INFORMATION ON PRODUCT INSTALLATION, PLEASE CONSULT YOUR SOPREMA REPRESENTATIVE.
