Description
FIBERFLEX PLUS FAA is a waterproofing membrane made of distilled bitumen modified with SBS (styrene-butadiene-styrene) polymers that make it very elastic, resistant to thermal ageing and flexible at low temperatures.
The elastomeric compound ensures ease of application, reduced consumption of gas and has excellent adhesion properties that ensure, when properly installed, superior bonding and tightness of all joints and overlaps.
The carrier is a composite polyester stabilised with longitudinal glass yarns that combine superior dimensional stability with good mechanical properties.
FIBERFLEX PLUS FAA 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, FIBERFLEX PLUS FAA 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.
The composite roofing system including FIBERFLEX PLUS FAA as underlay and FIBERFLEX HP MINERAL FAA as top layer has been tested and classified in category “EXT. F.AA”, in accordance with British Standard BS 476 Part 3:2004 “External Fire ExposureRoof Tests” (Report n°18900A).
