The a.b.e. Torch-On 4 mm Waterproofing Membrane is a high-performance bitumen membrane ideal for both new building and refurbishment projects. Manufactured using polymer-modified bitumen reinforced with composite reinforcement, it offers exceptional elongation, stability, and high performance across a wide temperature range, making it particularly suitable for warmer climates. The upper face of the membrane is coated with fine serigraphic talc, a patented treatment that ensures smooth unrolling during installation. The underside is lined with Flamina, a sacrificial polyethylene film embossed with small squares. These squares assist in the rapid burn-off of the Flamina, indicating the correct melting point for proper adhesion, ensuring a reliable installation. The membrane can be used as a single-layer system or as part of a multi-layer system on a variety of surfaces, including sloping, flat, vertical, and curved surfaces, as well as concrete, timber roofing, and thermal insulation. Its long-lasting, waterproof, and puncture-resistant properties make it an excellent choice for a range of building applications.

Uses:

• a.b.e. torch-on 4mm can be used as a single layer system or as part of a multi-layer in both the refurbishment and new building works
• Suitable for flat, sloping, vertical, and curved surfaces
• Compatible with concrete (site-cast or prefabricated), timber roofing, and common thermal insulation

Advantages:

• Long life expectancy
• High elongation strength
• Guaranteed watertight
• Recyclable
• Stable and resistant to shear forces at joints
• Resistance to tearing and puncturing

Bonding/Priming:

All cementitious surfaces should be primed with a.b.e. bitu. prime at a rate of approximately 3.5 m²/L. A second coat may be required for certain surfaces.
