Compressed joint sealing tape BG2

The femo BG2 joint sealing tape is a waterproofed, pre-compressed foam tape, equipped with a self-adhesive strip as an assembly aid. Particularly suitable for exterior sealing of expansion joints, prefabricated elements, dividers, and window and door connections. Can also be used in timber construction, container construction and metal structures.

Advantages:

• Tape quality tested in line with BG2: Driving-rain-resistant up to 300 pascals


• Bridges irregularities in joints


• Offers maximum protection against indoor air pollution - certified according to GEV-EMICODE® EC1plus - very low emissions


• The high tolerance capacity of the tapes compensates structural movement and common construction tolerances


• Good ecological compatibility


• Temperature resistant from -30°C to +90°C


• Can be stored for 12 months at between +1°C and +20°C

Advice:

Application example:

(Several application methods exist in practice)

1. Measure the joint width and select a suitable tape size.

2. Cut off over-compressed start or end pieces.

3. Add at least 1 cm when cutting the joint sealing tape to length.

4. Clean the joint of any oil, grease, dirt or mortar residue.

5. Fix the pre-compressed joint sealing tape to the window using the self-adhesive or lay in the joint directly from the reel.

6. Sections of tape can be laid one after the other.

Time required for expansion in the joint*:

0°C up to ten days

10°C approx. 48 hours

20°C approx. 3 hours

30°C approx. 10 minutes

* Caution: Reset times are not subject to a specification and are only based on empirical values. They are dependent on the storage time and the storage and application temperature. The following applies in general: The longer the storage times and the lower the application temperature, the longer the reset times.
