Window-sealing tape, for exterior use

CONTEGA EXO

Advantages

  • Easy to work with: extra thin for easy folding in corner areas
  • Independently confirmed suitability: tests in accordance with MO-01/1 passed at IFT in Rosenheim (DE)
  • Reliable joints in combination with CONTEGA SL for interior use
  • Fleece side can be plastered over: defined transition between window or wind sealing and plasterwork
  • Flexible application: three adhesive strips for use with timber, masonry or concrete structures

Areas of application

For exterior windtight joints that are resistant to driving rain between windows or doors and adjacent building components, with three adhesive strips.

Installation instructions

Substrate

Clean subsurfaces before sticking. Adhesion to frozen surfaces is not possible. There must be no water-repellent substances (e.g. grease or silicone) on materials to be bonded. The width of the adhesive tape that is to be plastered over should generally not exceed 60 mm (2 3/8") or 50% of the soffit area. Detailed recommendations can be obtained from the relevant plaster producer. Subsurfaces must be sufficiently dry and stable.

Permanent adhesion is achieved on all pro clima exterior membranes and on other underlay and breather (WRB) membranes (e.g. those made of PP and PET). Adhesion can be carried out on planed and painted wood, hard plastics, hard wood-based panels (chipboard, OSB and plywood panels). For sealing joints on masonry or concrete or on rough substrates, use ORCON F.

The best results in terms of structural stability are achieved on high-quality subsurfaces. It is your responsibility to check the suitability of the subsurface; adhesion tests are recommended in certain cases. Pre-treatment with TESCON PRIMER is recommended in the case of subsurfaces with insufficient stability.

General conditions

The bonds should not be subjected to tensile strain. Rub the adhesive tapes firmly to secure the adhesive bonds. Ensure that there is sufficient resistance pressure. Seals that are windproof and resistant to driving rain can only be achieved if the sealing tape is installed free of folds and breaks. When plastering, please observe the recommendations of the plaster manufacturer for non-absorbent subsurfaces. A bonding course may be necessary.
