QUICK OVERVIEW

hagen 160813 0111 editweb2VaproBond is a single component 100% silicone sealant designed to adhere low surface energy materials to themselves. Use VaproBond to bind layers of VaproShield membranes and/or adhere to typical construction material surfaces and/or as a liquid-applied flashing component with metal framing systems.

  • UV stable, black silicone sealant and all-weather flashing material
  • Binds layers of VaproShield membranes and other typical construction materials
  • Creates watertight and airtight details
  • Applies in 20°F (-6.7° C) and rising
  • No primers, easy to gun and apply

Benefits

  • Fuctions as a sealant and an all-weather silicone liquid flashing material
  • Bonds to most common building materials without priming to produce a durable, structural, air and moisture tight seal
  • Remains flexible under extreme temperatures
  • Excellent weatherability, UV stable for extended exposure

Compatibility

  • Concrete
  • Masonry
  • Natural stone
  • Structural sheathing
  • Painted Metals
  • Glass
  • PVC
  • FRP
  • EPDM
  • Dry wood
  • Architectural Metal Panels
  • Most building materials, urethane, and acrylic sealants and coatings

Typical Uses: Sealant

Sealant Image webUse VaproBond adhesive sealant to create a watertight, airtight seal at the vertical seams when installing VaproShield mechanically attached WRB/Air Barriers.

1 Sausage = 125 lin.ft.

Window Sealant webA. Fully embed head flashing (by others) in VaproBond over Vapro-SS Flashing™.
B. Seal rough opening corners with a bead of VaproBond.

For all penetrations: tool VaproBond evenly at least 2” onto the face and at least 1” out along all sides of the penetration

Typical Uses: Flashing

VaproBond Flashing Components 1017171. WrapFlashing SA Self-Adhered (W: 6 ½”, 11 ¾”, 19 2/3”) is pre-cut field membrane. Simply cut WrapFlashing SA into appropriate lengths and apply to face and inside of rough opening. Saves labor, saves time, convenient.

2. Create waterproof interface by applying VaproBond to inside of rough opening and 1" on face.
