Specially formulated adhesive for all Butynol applications

including broadspan bonding and lap jointing in nonaggressive

or non-immersed condition exposure.

The standard contact brushing spray grade and rolling

adhesive for fixing to the substrate and for laps not subject

to periodic ponding.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

ARDEX WA 98 is hazardous and a dangerous goods.

It is highly flammable and harmful if swallowed. It is

irritating to the eyes and skin and may cause sensitisation

by skin contact. Keep container tightly closed and in a well

ventilated place. Take off immediately all contaminated

clothing. In case of contact with eyes rinse with plenty of

water and contact a doctor or Poisons Information Centre.

ARDEX SEAM TAPE

ARDEX Seam Tape is an uncured butyl cold gum tape for

use in conjunction with ARDEX Seam Primer for bonding

Butynol lap joints. ARDEX Seam Tape is suitable for laps

that are likely to be subjected to periodic ponding only

– not suitable for continuous immersion conditions.

For continuous immersion joints must be fusion welded.

Supplied in 50mm x 30.5m rolls (6 to a carton).

ARDEX PRESSURE SEAL

Designed to seal the edges of ARDEX Butynol or ARDEX

Torch Applied Bitumen (Shelterbit) Membranes and ARDEX

SBS Self Adhesive (Shelterseal) Membranes where no

existing cavity flashing or dampcourse has been installed.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

3 metre lengths of specially formed aluminium strip.

INSTALLATION

The ARDEX Pressure Seal is mechanically fixed through the

top edge of the membrane at 500mm intervals. The

uppermost edge of the strip is then sealed with ARDEX

Butynol Sealant along the profile provided.

PACKAGING

Packs containing 10 x 3 metre lengths.

ARDEX WPM 299 SEAM PRIMER

A water resistant primer adhesive used with seam tape

for general lap bonding.

ARDEX WPM 299 Seam Primer is suitable for laps that are

likely to be subjected to periodic ponding only – not

suitable for continuous immersion conditions. For

continuous immersion joints must be fusion welded.

Important: Temperature and Humidity

The evaporation of any solvent adhesive system causes

a drop in temperature at the interface. At times of high

humidity this can result in a micro molecular water layer

at the interface which will result in a failure to bond falsely

attributed to adhesive failure. Fixing should not proceed

under these circumstances.

NOTES

1. In cases of extreme absorbency a priming coat of

full strength ARDEX WA 98 adhesive may assist water

shedding and absorption. However a follow up coat

of full strength adhesive for full bonding should not be

proceeded with under four hours thus allowing full

evaporation of solvents absorbed into the substrate.

Primers must be time dried not touch dried.

2. As new substrate materials continually appear on the

market consult ARDEX for approval of their use with

Butynol.

3. Where periodic ponding is likely and on roofs with a

slope of 5° or less ARDEX Seam Tape and ARDEX WPM

299 Seam Primer must be used on all joints.

4. Laps can be formed on roofs with a pitch greater than

5° with normal brush grade substrate ARDEX WA 98

adhesive. Laps must be solvent wiped with ARDEX WPM

290 solvent prior to applying adhesive. They must however

at all times drain dry and have no periodic ponding.

5. Do not use in temperatures less than 6°C.

FLAMMABILITY

ARDEX WPM 299 Seam Primer gives off highly flammable

vapour. Keep well away from heat sparks and open flame.

Keep closed when not in use.

LIMITATIONS

Primer should be used with appropriate mask and breathing

apparatus in areas of poor ventilation and/or air flow.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

ARDEX WPM 299 is hazardous and a dangerous goods.

It is highly flammable and harmful if swallowed. It is

irritating to the eyes and skin and may cause sensitisation

by skin contact. Keep container tightly closed and in a well

ventilated place. Take off immediately all contaminated

clothing. In case of contact with eyes rinse with plenty of

water and contact a doctor or Poisons Information Centre.

ARDEX BUTYNOL SEALANT

Description

ARDEX Butynol Sealant has been specially designed and

formulated for sealing Butynol flashings into chases as

found in Building and Construction. Butynol Sealant gives

excellent adhesion and sealant properties to both Butynol

Membranes and building substrates.

FLAMMABILITY

ARDEX Butynol Sealant gives off highly flammable vapour.

Keep well away from heat sparks and open flame. Keep

closed when not in use.

DIRECTIONS

Once the Butynol Membrane has been fixed into place

apply an even bead of Butynol Sealant into the chase

which should be properly prepared by ensuring all

surfaces are clean dry and sound. Tool the sealant bead

to ensure there are no voids gaps or air pockets and that

the bead has a neat and flush finish.

TACK FREE TIME

Approx. 24 hours depending on temperature conditions

can be painted within 4 to 6 days.

FULL CURE TIME

4-6 days depending on temperature conditions.

CLEAN UP

Clean tools etc. with mineral turpentine.

COLOUR

Black

LIMITATIONS

Sealant should be used with appropriate mask and

breathing apparatus in areas of poor ventilation

and/or air flow.

FIRST AID

Swallowed: Give water to clean mouth. Do not induce

vomiting.

Skin: Remove contaminated clothing. Wash skin

thoroughly with soap and water.

Eyes: Hold open and flood with water for at least

15 minutes. Inhalation: Remove patient to fresh air.

If breathing is difficult administer oxygen.

Seek medical attention promptly.

SUBSTRATE VENTILATION

Substrate ventilation should be used to release moisture

trapped under the Butynol. Substrate ventilators are used

for this purpose. One way substrate ventilators prevent

moisture vapour build up and one should be installed every

90 square metres. Not designed to ventilate roof cavities.

ARDEX PRESSURE SEAL

Designed to seal the edges of ARDEX Butynol or ARDEX

Torch Applied Bitumen Membranes and ARDEX SBS Self

Adhesive Membranes where no existing cavity flashing or

dampcourse has been installed.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

3 metre lengths of specially formed aluminium strip.

INSTALLATION

The ARDEX Pressure Seal is mechanically fixed through

the top edge of the membrane at 500mm intervals.

The uppermost edge of the strip is then sealed with

ARDEX Butynol Sealant along the profile provided.

PACKAGING

Packs containing 10 x 3 metre lengths.

ARDEX PROTECTION BOARD

ARDEX Protection Board is a fluted polyethylene board

designed to be used after the membrane installation

and prior to backfilling to protect the membrane from

mechanical damage during the backfilling operation.

SIZE

1800 X 1200mm fluted boards.

PACKAGING
