cp62.gif (6621 bytes)Description:
GAFGLAS #75 Base Sheet is a premium roofing base sheet. It is constructed with a strong glass mat that is coated on both sides to assure a closed-sheet design to prevent asphalt bleed-through. The sealed sheet also serves as an effective flame retarder for the application of torch-applied modified bitumen membranes.

GAFGLAS #75 Base Sheet is engineered for use in the construction of GAFGLAS built-up and RUBEROID® modified bitumen roofing systems. It is suitable for nailable specifications, such as plywood, where bleed-through is a concern.

Advantages:
· Extra strength for excellent nail-holding ability.
· Superb tensile strength and resilience and no bleed-through, thereby reducing risks of splitting and cracking of membrane.
· Will not rot, curl, or shrink; dimensionally stable for improved membrane performance.
· Meets UL Class A ratings.
· Rolls out flat for easy installation.

Applicable Standards:
· UL Approved for use in the construction of Class A, B, or C roofs (Type G2 BUR)
· FMRC Approved; see current guide
