The Truth About "Conventional" Type 6 Felts Conventional ASTM Type6 felts have long been a "double-edged sword" for roofing contractors andspecifiers... What’s Good... The Problems... As a result, many contractors and specifiers
have avoided conventional Type 6 felts except when the manufacturer required them for a
long-term guarantee. |
|
| The Problem With Conventional Type6 Felts Voids created by "stiff" ply felts are a chronic source of problems for roofing contractors and specifiers. Moisture trapped in the voids can result in blisters membrane failure and, ultimately, leaks in the roofing system. |
 |
| The FlexPly6 Breakthrough Using revolutionary technology, GAF Materials Corporation Engineers developed FlexPly6, the industry’s first flexible Type 6 felt. This patent pending technology allows asphalt coating to be applied to a special, proprietary fiberglass mat without sacrificing the tensile strength or porosity of the finished felt. The result is a premium ply felt with both flexibility and strength—your best choice! |
