Mounting tapes are widely used in modern construction. In the window industry, vapor barrier materials are used. They are made of butyl rubber with canvas or aluminum foil. Perforated products are made of polyethylene foam and coated on both sides with glue. They are used in the construction of pipelines, air ducts and for a wide variety of fastenings in construction.
Mounting tape performs the function of external waterproofing. With the help of sealing material, it is possible to completely close all gaps and obtain reliable protection against harmful climatic influences. The product is completely ready for use and expands when filled on its own. This happens faster at higher temperatures.
Mounting tape is impregnated with a special composition, after which it becomes resistant to precipitation and ultraviolet radiation. Fungi, microorganisms and mold do not affect this material, and these properties do not change with the period of use. The temperature at which the polyurethane foam product is stored has a fairly wide range.
Why do we need mounting tape, which is used for windowsystems? Foil tape (GPL) is used for steam, heat and waterproofing. The composition of this product includes foamed polyethylene, which is an excellent vapor barrier. Thanks to this component, moisture does not accumulate. Insulating material during installation is used wherever it is required to protect the window from contact with the external environment. The sealing tape protects and the vapor-tight membrane keeps moisture out. Waterproofing material is also glued under the slopes. Of course, the cost of such a design becomes much more expensive, but thanks to it, moisture does not enter the room.
Mounting tape, which is used for windows, has a constant thickness. Unwind and cut it right before installation. The window opening and frame are preliminarily well cleaned of dirt and degreased. The vapor barrier material is installed before the foam is applied.
Perforated mounting tape LM is fixed anywhere, as it contains holes of different diameters. With its help, they strengthen the brickwork and strengthen the truss system. This product is made of galvanized steel, which allows it to be used for work not only indoors.
One of the most common fasteners is the ventilation tape. However, it is used not only for ventilation systems, but also for fastening containers, when installing cable lines, when installing a warm floor, and so on. Mounting tape GOST 14918-80 was made from hot-dip galvanized steel 08PS.
Advantages of perforatedfastener:
-
Mounting tape GOST quick grip;
- ensure structural stability;
- possibility to work with drywall, which greatly facilitates installation;
- ability to create hidden structures;
- due to the material, the surfaces are smooth;
- allows you to get strong and durable designs.
In some cases, builders recommend installing mounting tapes without fail. It depends on where the house is located and how the walls are insulated. But in any case, it saves heat in the winter season.
