Cover Tape

Seal Trust™ TPO Cover Tape is cured EPDM cover rubber with specially formulated butyl mastic extruded together for typical roofing applications such as cover for most metal terminations including gravel-stops and drip edge, and extensively used for horizontal patching, seam repairs and seam overlays. This peel and stick product has long term heat and chemical resistance and gives Seal Trust TPO Cover Tape the ability to remain flexible in harsh conditions. Surpassing the industry standards for tack and shear strength our cover tape products provide superior holding power for long life and high durability. Industry standard roofing membrane cleaners and primers must be used to clean the membrane before application. Used with EPDM, TPO, and some PVC roofing membranes.
