1. What is Proctor Probond Tape used for?

Proctor Probond Tape is an extruded butyl tape designed to seal overlaps in vapour control layers (VCLs). It can also provide a temporary fixing point for membranes on substrates before mechanical fixings are installed.

2. What material is Proctor Probond Tape made from?

Probond Tape is made from extruded butyl, a flexible sealing material known for its strong adhesion and ability to conform to different surfaces.

3. What size is Proctor Probond Tape?

Proctor Probond Tape is supplied in rolls measuring 15mm wide, 2mm thick and 22.5 metres long.

4. What colour is Proctor Probond Tape?

Proctor Probond Tape is grey.

5. Which surfaces can Proctor Probond Tape stick to?

Probond Tape adheres to a wide range of substrates. For best results, ensure the surface is suitable, clean and prepared in accordance with the manufacturer's installation guidance.

6. Is Proctor Probond Tape flexible?

Yes. Its softer composition makes it highly conformable, allowing it to adapt to different surfaces and details. It also remains flexible throughout its service life.

7. What is the application temperature range for Proctor Probond Tape?

The manufacturer's datasheet specifies an application temperature range of 5°C to +40°C.

8. What temperatures can Proctor Probond Tape withstand once installed?

The stated service temperature range is -40°C to +90°C, making it suitable for use across a wide range of service conditions.

9. Can Proctor Probond Tape be used to temporarily fix vapour control layers?

Yes. It can provide a temporary fixing point to substrates before mechanical fixing. Follow the installation instructions for the specific membrane system to ensure the correct fixing and sealing method is used.

10. Is Proctor Probond Tape easy to apply?

Yes. Its high tack and conformable composition make it straightforward to position accurately, helping minimise waste and mess during installation.

11. Is Proctor Probond Tape UV-resistant?

The manufacturer's product information and supporting brochure describe Probond Tape as having UV resistance. Always consult the current technical datasheet for any project-specific exposure limitations.

12. How much Proctor Probond Tape is supplied per roll?

Each roll contains 22.5 metres of tape. This helps installers estimate the quantity required based on the length of overlaps and fixing points in their project.

13. Is Proctor Probond Tape suitable for all vapour control layers?

Not necessarily. Compatibility depends on the membrane, substrate and installation details. Check the membrane manufacturer's recommendations before use to ensure the tape is suitable for the intended application.

14. What is the difference between Proctor Probond Tape and Reflectafoil Tape?

Probond Tape is an extruded butyl tape primarily used for sealing and temporary fixing applications. Reflectafoil Tape is an aluminium foil tape used for sealing joints and overlaps in suitable vapour control layer systems. They serve different purposes and should be selected according to the requirements of the membrane system.
