Tyvek FlexWrap™NF
Tyvek FlexWrap™NF
Description
Tyvek® FlexWrap™ self adhered flashing does not require mechanical fasteners, even in flexed corner areas around building openings. This allows it to provide easy, one-step insulation for hard-to-seal corners around windows and doors.
FlexWrap™ is designed to help protect vulnerable corners against air and water intrusion, as part of a complete DuPont Building Envelope Solution. It’s effective across a range of window and door designs and a wide range of typical wall substrates, including OSB, plywood, gypsum, concrete masonry unit (CMU) and other non-nailable sheathing materials.
Helps seal the building envelope when used with DuPont Weatherization Systems products
Meets the AAMA 711-13 material standard at the highest classification levels: Class A (no primer) and Level 3 Thermal Exposure (80°C / 176°F for 7 days)
Can be installed at external temperatures as low as -4°C (25°F) as long as the surface is clean and free from frost and ice
Meets and Exceeds ASTM E331 Standard Test Method for Water Penetration of Exterior Windows, Skylights, Doors, and Curtain Walls by Uniform Static Air Pressure Difference: no leakage at 300 Pa (equivalent to 50 mph windload), even after thermal aging (0-120°F)
Does not contain asphaltic / bitumen adhesive materials which many window manufacturers prohibit due to adverse material reactions, such as black staining, oozing, and deformation over time, particularly with vinyl flanges.
