Packaging 

Colour: anthracite, grey Packaging: Rolls (pre-compressed to approx. 20% of the expanded original thickness), Various sizes available. Please consult the product catalogue, the Soudal website or a Soudal representative. Shelf life At least 24 months in original, unopened packaging at a cool and dry storage place, between +5°C and +25°C. Substrates Substrates: all usual building substrates Nature: Clean and free of grease. Slightly moist or slightly dusty substrates are no problem. The joint sides must be parallel (max. 3 degrees deviation). Voegafmetingen Example: Soudaband PRO BG1 20/4-9 20 = width of the tape (mm) = depth of the joint 4-9 = application range for BG1, thickness of the tape = width of the joint The width of the joint must fall within the application range of the joint sealing tape over the entire length of the joint. Maximum joint width: must be determined at the lowest possible temperature. Minimum joint width: is the pre-compressed thickness of the tape. The joint sealing tape may not expand more in its application than it is wide to avoid tipping over. 

Application method 

 For application only a spatula, a meter, scissors or a knife and where necessary wooden wedges are required. 

 Do not use the first and last part of the roll (approx. 3 cm). 

 When measuring the length/cutting of the tape add approx. 1 cm/m. 

 Do not stretch Soudaband PRO BG1 during installation. 

 Start with vertical construction joints at the bottom. In case of cross construction joints, apply them first horizontally afterwards vertically. 

 Measure the opening at door or window connections, not at the construction element. Use 4 separate pieces of joint sealing tape instead of 1 long piece. Attach the joint sealing tape to the construction element and finish the horizontal sides first, then the vertical sides. 

 Connect the tape (at an extension or in the corners) closely to butt joints to form a tight, compressed connection. 

 When working in damp of cold conditions Soudaband PRO BG1 can be fixed with wooden wedges until it is expanded. * Consult the Soudal website or a Soudal representative to receive a detailed installation guide. Health- and Safety Recommendations Take the usual labour hygiene into account. Consult the label for more information. 

Remarks 

 Clamp remaining rolls and weigh down opened boxes to prevent lateral expansion (telescoping) of the rolls. 

 When installing Soudaband PRO BG1, higher temperatures will speed up tape expansion while lower temperatures will delay tape expansion. 

 Soudaband PRO BG1 should not come into contact with solvents or aggressive chemicals. If in doubt, consult a Soudal representative. 

 Soudaband PRO BG1 is paintable with waterbased paints, however due to the large number of paints and varnishes available we strongly suggest a compatibility test before appication. 

 This product is elastic and therefore applied layers of paint can crack in joints that experience large movements (large difference in elasticity between sealant and paint).
