Benjamin Obdyke has launched a self-adhered version of its InvisiWrap UV-resistant housewrap, InvisiWrap SA. InvisiWrap SA is specially designed for projects with open-joint cladding: It offers enhanced UV protection to accommodate increased exposure, and its black, non-printed facer ensures shadows between gaps. The addition of a continuous, 100 percent acrylic adhesive provides further protection by sealing around cladding fasteners to help maintain the integrity of the air barrier. InvisiWrap SA has a split-release liner for easy application and positioning. The acrylic adhesive is repositionable during installation; once an installer is satisfied with the wrap placement, he or she applies pressure to fully activate the bond. No seam tape is required. When used in conjunction with a rainscreen, InvisiWrap SA provides bulk water drainage, vapor permeability and durability for the building envelope.
