CCW Barrithane VP Fluid-applied, Vapor-Permeable Membrane, 5 Gallon

Barrithane VP is a fluid-applied, vapor-permeable membrane for use as an air and water-resistive barrier in above-grade wall assemblies. The product is a 1-part, moisture-curing silane-terminated polyether (STPE). Barrithane VP is a high-solids, low VOC product. It is highly moisture resistant after cure and can be applied over damp substrates. Barrithane VP will not freeze, can be installed at sub-freezing temperatures, and resists rain wash-off immediately after installation. The formulation is also fire-retardant, which allows its use in many NFPA 285 wall assemblies. Barrithane VP is applied in single or multiple coats by roller or brush at 15-25 wet mils over exterior sheathing, and at 30-50 wet mils over masonry and concrete. Upon cure, Barrithane VP provides a monolithic, fully-adhered membrane.

Features:

• Install as low as 15°F, rain-resistant immediately after application, damp surface tolerant: Reliable all-season installation.
• Single coat installation on exterior sheathing, concrete, and masonry substrates: reduces labor and time to install.
• High-solids, moisture-cure material: High coverage rate, low shrinkage during cure.
• Performs as air and water-resistive barrier on the interior side of masonry walls: can be used in retrofit and renovation of existing buildings.
• Fire-retardant formulation: Can be used in many wall assemblies requiring NFPA 285. Exempt from NFPA 285 requirement per 2015 IBC 1403.5 Exemption 2.
• Vapor-permeable chemistry: Permits use in wall assemblies where a vapor barrier is not needed
• 6 month UV resistance: Allows flexibility in schedule
• Low VOC: Meets <250 g/L requirement. No red diamond required for shipment and storage. Contributes to safety during installation.
• Monolithic and fully-adhered: Provides a high air and watertight installation
• Non-asphalt STPE composition: Compatible with common self-adhered flashings and joint sealants
• Barrithane VP is a warranted system from Carlisle Coatings & Waterproofing
