DuPont™ DuraGard™ CM Transition Flashing is a multipurpose, self-adhered flashing that utilizes a modified butyl adhesive to achieve primerless adhesion to most substrates above 40° F. It is a flashing that can be used in multiple applications from through-wall flashing and wall transitions to roof and below-grade systems.
DuPont™ ThermaWrap® LE is a non-woven, non-perforated, spun-bonded polyethylene sheet air and water-resistive barrier made with a metallized, low-emission (low-e) surface that reflects solar radiation away from the building.
In cold weather, this helps prevent radiant heat loss from within the structure. In warmer weather, Tyvek® ThermaWrap® LE turns the tables, reflecting warm air out and away from the structure, to help improve air-conditioning efficiency. In all seasons, that can help make both residential homes and commercial buildings more comfortable, more energy efficient, and less costly to operate.
Like all Tyvek® air and water-resistive barriers (WRB's), Tyvek® ThermaWrap® LE helps prevent water accumulation inside the wall system by allowing moisture vapor to escape to the outside. In turn, this helps reduce the risk of mold and wood rot, which is important in all climates. With its combination of air and water holdout, vapor permeability, and a low-e surface, Tyvek® ThermaWrap® LE provides the best of both worlds for managing energy efficiency.
DuPont™ Weathermate™ Construction Tape from DuPont is a durable sealing tape with excellent adhesion properties to help protect homes and building against moisture and air intrusion. Weathermate™ Construction Tape is pliable – ensuring a tight seal, even at extremely low temperatures – and its oriented polypropylene backing is formulated with a UV-treated film to help resist degradation from exposure to sunlight.
Weathermate™ Construction Tape is the recommended tape for sealing joints and seams of Weathermate™ housewraps. It provides a tight bond to housewrap surfaces to seal seams and enhance resistance to moisture and air infiltration.
Weathermate™ Flexible Flashing is a self-adhering, fully adhered flashing that conforms to curved surfaces to provide a tear-resistant seal that combats water intrusion around windows, doors and other penetrations. It combines a whitecreped, high-density polyethylene (HDPE) film facer with a butyl rubber adhesive that forms a strong mechanical and chemical bond to most building materials. A polymeric-coated kraft paper release liner provides a more consistent peel than plain paper liners.
