The femo BG1 joint sealing tape is a waterproofed, pre-compressed foam tape, equipped with a self-adhesive strip as an assembly aid. Particularly suitable for exterior sealing of expansion joints, prefabricated elements, dividers, and window and door connections.

Advantages:

• Fulfils all requirements of DIN 18542 issue 2009
• Excellent sealing properties in line with BG1: Driving-rain-resistant up to 600 pascals
• Offers maximum protection against indoor air pollution - certified according to GEV-EMICODE® EC1plus - very low emissions
• Water-repellent yet vapour-permeable
• Facilitates favourable moisture regulation in joints
• Bridges irregularities in joints in the respective application and seals against driving rain
• The high tolerance capacity of the tapes compensates structural movement and common construction tolerances
• Tested UV resistance
• Excellent ecological compatibility
• Temperature resistant from -30°C to +90°C
• Storage time at +1°C to +20°C: 12 months
• Processing temperature: upwards of 5°C, dry

Composition of set:

15 rolls of 3.3 m = 49.5 m

Advice:

Do not use in standing water.
Tape must not come into contact with aggressive chemicals containing solvents.

Application example:

(Several application methods exist in practice)

1. Measure the joint width and select a suitable tape size.

2. Cut off over-compressed start or end pieces.

3. Add at least 1 cm when cutting the joint sealing tape to length.

4. Clean the joint of any oil, grease, dirt or mortar residue.

5. Fix the pre-compressed joint sealing tape to the window using the self-adhesive or lay in the joint directly from the reel.

6. Sections of tape can be laid one after the other.

Time required for expansion in the joint*:

0°C up to ten days

10°C approx. 48 hours

20°C approx. 3 hours

30°C approx. 10 minutes

* Caution: Reset times are not subject to a specification and are only based on empirical values. They are dependent on the storage time and the storage and application temperature. The following applies in general: The longer the storage times and the lower the application temperature, the longer the reset times.
