Barrier Seam Tape is a thermally set, spun-bonded polyester non-woven fabric made up of 100% continuous polyester filament fibers that are randomly arranged and reinforced with a 5 x 5 polyester scrim for added strength and stability. XP403 has high tensile and tear strength, wets out well with both cold applied cutbacks and emulsions, non-raveling, moisture, rot and mildew resistant, lightweight, good sunlight resistance and possesses good elongation and recovery properties when properly applied. Compatible with oxidized asphalt and cold tar bitumen for use in hot mop system. Used in conjunction with our Blue Shield, Green Guard, Flexcrete, Dur-A-Mastic 100 and EctoFlex, to bridge inter-face gaps and to create continuity in the water penetration barrier within a wall assembly. Barrier Seam Tape should be used to seal joints at similar substrates, joints in dissimilar substrates and wherever water infiltration may be a concern.
