Description
SUPERBIT is a polymer-modified waterproofing membrane obtained from the modification of distilled bitumen with poly-olefin based co-polymers.The modified compound makes SUPERBIT an easy to apply membrane that requires low consumption of gas and has excellent adhesion properties that ensure, when the membrane is properly installed, very good bonding and tightness of all joints and overlaps.
The carrier is a composite polyester stabilised with longitudinal glass yarns that provide very good dimensional stability and prevent problems of shrinkage caused by weathering in time.
SUPERBIT is recommended as a base sheet or as an intermediate layer in multi-layer waterproofing constructions for flat, pitched or vaulted roofs, made of reinforced concrete cast on site or prefab, of terraces, under-floorings etc. In case of direct exposure to weathering agents, SUPERBIT shall be protected by a layer of self-protected (mineralised) membrane.
Subject to the type of substrate it shall be installed by means of a propane gas torch, approved adhesives or by mechanical fixing. In any case it is recommended to prepare substrate with fixative bituminous PRIMER W (water base) or PRIMER S (solvent base).
For cold applications on primed concrete surfaces apply with COPERGLUE BASE bituminous adhesive (over horizontal areas) or COPERGLUE VERTICAL (parapets and elevations). Side laps, head joints and small repairs shall be made with COPERGLUE JOINT. For cold applications over insulation board (Polystyrene, PUR or PIR) apply with COPERMAST bituminous mastic.
