CertainTeed’s Arctic Edge Cold Lap Tape allows contractors to use Flintlastic SA self-adhered roofing membranes in cold-weather conditions. The tape is made with a specially formulated adhesive that remains sticky in temperatures as low as 35 F, boosting the adhesion of Flintlastic SA membranes in cold weather. The tape is easy to use and can be applied by hand or with a stand-up applicator around perimeter edges, sidelaps and base/interply endlaps. Arctic Edge replaces FlintPrime Aerosol asphaltic primer on details, such as metal edging, eliminating crew delays waiting for primer to tack up. Each roll is 4 inches by 260 feet and comes in eight rolls per carton, enough tape to adhere four rolls of Flintlastic SA PlyBase or eight rolls of Flintlastic SA MidPly, SA Cap, SA Cap FR. CertainTeed’s Credentialed Contractors report faster skill acquisition for Flintlastic SA self-adhered installation compared to other application methods.
