uni3 MF1/MF2 Premium multi-functional tape

New and innovative membrane technology eliminates any confusion regarding indoor or outdoor use of the tape

The uni3 Premium multi-purpose tape is a pre-compressed, moisture-variable tape for the airtight and driving rain-resistant sealing of window and door joints with simultaneous heat-insulating properties throughout the entire component depth. The integrated functional membranes ensure permanently dry connection joints.
Due to the innovative membrane technology, there is no defined installation direction. This eliminates any confusion regarding indoor or outdoor use.

Application area:

uni3 Premium multi-purpose tape for the professional sealing of window and door joints as well as connection joints of conservatories to masonry or other building connections. Due to the integrated, innovative functional membranes, it meets the highest sealing requirements and is passive house compliant.

Field of Application:

The uni3 Premium multi-purpose tape can be used for all areas of window joint sealing such as passive house construction, new construction, renovation and for heat/sound insulation.

Advice:

Application:
The base material must be as level as possible. Smooth if necessary. The base material must be free from dust, release agents, oil, grease, moisture and dirt. The joint flanks should run as parallel as possible. The specifications for the joint widths must be maintained and must not be exceeded. This also applies in uneven areas. Conduct tests beforehand on painted or sealed surfaces.

Remove approx. 20 cm of the masking paper. Bond the multi-purpose tape to the window frame with an overhang (lower joint width dimension). Then separate and affix the tape in the upper corner with an overhang (upper joint dimension). Butt join the rest of the tape in the corner while applying pressure and bond it flush to the window frame at the other end. Never place the multi-purpose tape around corners, in order to prevent leaky joints.

Butt join at the end of the roll and separate the last and first 5 cm in each case. Lay the ends of the tape against one another exactly while applying slight pressure. Do not bevel and do not lay with an overlap.

For the formation of the lower joint connection, we recommend primarily a moisture-variable film tape for indoor and outdoor use, such as our Vario window sealing tape (0800 500 et seq.).

The tape must always be installed without tension. If necessary, fill butt joints and nicks with a suitable sealing compound, e.g. S78 bond and seal (0898 511 4).

In case of temperatures above 20 °C, the tape must be stored in a cool place before use. In case of cool temperatures below 8 °C, the tape should be kept at room temperature before installation if possible. The expansion properties of the tape are sped up by high temperatures and slowed down by low temperatures.

The tape must have completely filled the joint before a differential pressure measurement is performed. For this purpose, it should expand evenly for at least four weeks before the test.

Observe the installation instructions supplied with each box, in particular the information on the expansion properties and on mounting.
