Installation steps
1. Preparation
Subsurfaces must have sufficient stability and be dry, level and free of dust, silicone and grease.
Brush off all subsurfaces; if necessary, clean with a vacuum cleaner and wipe down. Carry out an adhesion test, if necessary.
2. Taping of panel joints
Centre TESCON RAPIC on the joint, roll it out and stick the panel joint gradually.
Rub the tape firmly to secure the adhesive bond with the pro clima PRESSFIX application tool.
3. Taping membrane overlaps
Centre TESCON RAPIC on the membrane overlap and gradually stick it in place, ensuring that there are no folds or tension.
Rub the tape firmly to secure the adhesive bond.
PRESSFIX is easy to use and protects your hands.
Ensure that there is sufficient resistance pressure.
4. Reliable tape-on-tape adhesion
The tape backing and its special adhesive have been formulated to be compatible with one another and to ensure ease of use in construction practice on site.
TESCON RAPIC can be applied onto another layer of TESCON RAPIC. The tape can be peeled off its roll easily and quickly, but exhibits its full adhesive force under the slow-acting forces (e.g. due to relative motion between components) typically encountered in service. In this way, reliable adhesion between two layers of tape is ensured.
