The indisputable advantages of the Gerlen sealing tape make it indispensable in various sectors of life.

The sealing tape "Gerlen": features and advantages

Modern sealant in the form of adhesive tape has relatively recently appeared on the building materials market. The sealing tape "Guerlain" is a special type of building material created using special technology and widely in demand in construction and other fields. The product has technological features and undoubted advantages over other means.

Sealing tape types and characteristics self-adhesive sealing tape

After the person began to produce basic building materials, he had a question about the need for the use of accessories. After all, the structures themselves are suitable only for rough construction, which is then supplemented with already insulating finishing components. For example, to seal joints between blocks, various putty materials and gypsum are used. But scientific and technological progress has long stepped forward, and therefore the range has expanded significantly, which required the development and accessories. Instead of many sealing components, sealing tape began to be used. What is it and what is it used for? Consider in our article today.

Characteristic

A sealing tape is a material that is made of components with good strength and durability, while making the installation process much easier. A tape is a composite material that has in its composition a layer of bitumen capable of self-sticking.

As a functional component, in most cases, a colored aluminum coating is used. In addition, the composition also has a protective film. Today in our country, there are many companies that are engaged in the production of sealing tape. Almost all of them supply products to the modern market, but Technonikol is still the most popular. We will talk about it at the end of the article.

Material advantages

What are the benefits of sealing tape? There are only a few:

1. The material has good strength.
2. Durable The life of this material is more than ten years.
3. Used in many areas. This may include water supply, sewage, roofing, and car repair.
4. Laying is carried out by the fireless method. The material can be used where there is no open flame.
5. Application on a combustible base is possible.
6. No need to use additional equipment when laying.
7. Ease of installation and use in a small space.
8. Possibility of laying without special skills.

Areas of use

Generally speaking, Nicoband sealing tape finds its application in the construction, automotive, and also in any area of ​​human life. But it is worth describing all these areas in more detail:

• Joints and seams in structures that consist of different materials. These include concrete, wood, brick, metal and much more. In most cases, a Gerlen sealing tape is used.
• Adjacency to roofs of various types (mostly on pitched and flat).
• Recovery of the drainage system.
• Waterproofing of wood products.
• Restoration of metal and tile roofs.
• Waterproofing pipes in cold water supply.
• Steam and waterproofing of various joints during thermal insulation.
• Sealing cars, boats and more.
• Isolation from noise and vibration in plumbing products.
• Waterproofing in structures such as awnings, greenhouses and visors. Here, polycarbonate sealing tape is best suited. It reliably isolates all seams and prevents moisture from entering.

What does it consist of?

Self-adhesive sealing tape is produced by applying one facet of sticky bitumen to the film. The latter is resistant to ultraviolet and foil. Bitumen substance is a mixture of bitumen and thermoplastic elastomer, which is complemented by a filler. The protective side is a film that can be of different thicknesses, and it is anti-adhesive.

Major manufacturers

Among the main manufacturers are the following:

1. “Isoltem”. It is an Italian brand that acts as a world leader in the production of tapes, membranes, resins and sealants. This option is suitable for work on the roof, balconies, in foundations and pipes. The products are high quality, and prices are affordable.
2. “Sealing Materials Plant”. This is a Russian manufacturer, which was founded almost 20 years ago. Every year the brand is becoming more widespread, and products are becoming popular. Today there are more than 500 types of products, which include tapes, mastics, cords and much more. The option is used in construction, industry, as well as in the repair of equipment.
3. Guerlain. The plant has existed for more than 10 years and was able to find its regular customers. Here is produced a sealing tape "Gerlen", which can be construction, waterproof, and also specialize in other areas. The company is constantly working on the development of other components, and also supplies its materials worldwide.
4. TechnoNIKOL. This company is engaged in the production of sealing materials, which are widely used in our country. Quality is the main characteristic of the enterprise.

Conclusion

So, we examined the main types and properties of this material. Work with him can be done independently. But when installing roofs or waterproofing, it is best to trust professionals, because a mistake can be quite expensive. If someone decides to do this process on their own with the use of a sealing tape for the roof, it is better to stock up with information and only then carry out the necessary work.
