Commercial Roofing Products

RUBEROID® Mop-Applied Modified Bitumen Membranes–
                                        Fiberglass Reinforced 

Description

Ruberoid 20/30FR fiberglass-reinforced membranes are lightweight, flexible, inherently fire-resistant roofing system with twice the protection from the elements. It is designed for new roofing and reroofing applications where a UL Class A rating is required in a cost-effective multi-ply system.

RUBEROID 20/30FR offers dual protection because of it's two ply system. The first ply, RUBEROID 20, has as its core a strong fiberglass mat. This base ply can be used over most decks and roof insulations on slopes up to 3 inches per foot. RUBEROID 30 FR, the top ply, also uses a strong fiberglass mat. Both plies are coated with SBS-modified asphalt, formulated to give the overall system a UL Class A rating without the need for additional gravel or coatings. RUBEROID 30FR is surfaced with mineral granules offering weathering protection for the SBS modified asphalt used in the system. In addition to its use in a combined system, RUBEROID 20 can be used as a component in other modified bitumen systems. Check the current RUBEROID Application and Specifications Manual for more details.

Advantages
· Wind uplift resistance-selected roofing assemblies made with RUBEROID 20/30 FR meet FMRC Class 1-180 when installed over concrete decks.
· Lightweight-installed roof designs weigh less than 3 pounds per square foot.
· Durable-specially formulated SBS-modified asphalt gives RUBEROID 20/30 systems lasting performance.
· Backed by GAF Materials Corporation, a company with over 100 years in the roofing business.

Typical Physical Properties
RUBEROID 20/30 FR tested per ASTM D-2523 as a two-ply roofing system meets or exceeds the NIST Building Sciences Series 167 Interim Criteria for Polymer Modified Bituminous Roofing membrane materials for strain energy of 3 lbf-in/in2 in the weaker direction of the membrane at 0ºF.
