WATER BASE BONDING ADHESIVE
DATA SHEET

DESCRIPTION:
RPI Royal Edge Water base Bonding Adhesive is a technically advanced formula designed for use as a substrate bonding adhesive for single ply roofing membranes. It has excellent adhesion to most insulation/substrates. It is an acrylic pressure sensitive adhesive which grows stronger and more tenacious with age, but remains flexible enough to compensate for the expansion and contraction of the membrane itself.

SUGGESTED USES:
Water based bonding adhesive is used to bond single ply roofing membranes, such as EPDM, CSPE, PVC, and Hypalon
to most roofing substrates.

PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS

  1. Excellent resistance to aging.
  2. Excellent resistance to heat.
  3. 24 - 72 hour total cure time depending on conditions.
  4. Becomes stronger with age.

APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS:
Water base bonding adhesive may be applied by sprayer, roller, or by brush. Adhesive should be applied to both mating surfaces 3- 4 mils thick on each side. If substrate is porous such as Fiberboard, it is acceptable to wet laminate the
membrane to the substrate. If substrate is non porous such as polyisocyanurate insulation let the adhesive dry until it becomes clear. Broom, or roll the surface of the membrane to insure 100% adhesion between membrane and substrate.
NOTE: Water base bonding adhesive is not be used on walls, curbs, chimney's etc.
