As a component of an EIF system, GlasRoc® Sheathing offers:
| • |
Superior water shed and surface water resistance. |
| • |
Excellent total water absorption resistance. |
| • |
Six month resistance to UV and environmental exposure. |
| • |
Improved insulation adhesion due to integrated board surface. |
Superior Strength
GlasRoc® Sheathing integrally bonds its face coating to the moisture resistant core, resulting in a superior protective sheathing that will perform in all climates.
Dimensional Stability
GlasRoc® Sheathing resists delamination, rippling, buckling and sagging caused by environmental conditions, such as freeze/ thaw, heat and humidity, and direct UV exposure. This technology, with its fully embedded glass mats, makes GlasRoc® Sheathing state-of-the-art, and will provide a flat and uniform substrate for EIFS applications.
Moisture Resistance
When properly installed, GlasRoc® Sheathing blocks liquid water without inhibiting water vapour transmission. The result is a protective surface that is extremely resistant to water damage.
Easy to Install
GlasRoc® Sheathing is easier to handle and install. No special tools are required. Score it with a standard utility knife. Install it with standard sheathing fasteners.
