Mule-Hide Products Co., Inc, Beloit, Wisconsin introduces another fast roof at the NRCA Convention in New Orleans, February 11-14, 2003. Mule-Hide Self-Adhering Mod Bit features the traditional SBS and APP contractors know and trust, that meets or exceeds the same ASTM standards. No asphalt bleed-out and mess, these commercial grade systems have years of field-proven performance.

Unlike “single compound” self-adhering products which consist of an SBS and adhesive blend compound on both the top and the bottom of the reinforcement, Mule-Hide Self-Adhering membranes are manufactured with Adeso™ “dual compound” technology. A ‘true’ APP or SBS is provided on the top (weathering) surface and a new generation, pressure sensitive adhesive is provided on the bottom of the reinforcement. These “dual compound” membranes offer ten times greater adhesion than “single compound” products, meeting ASTM D 1970 adhesion standards.

Adheres to eight different substrates.  No hot kettles, no open flames, and no solvent-based adhesives make this system ideal for low-slope or steeper slopes when a fast, clean, safe application is desired. Contractors enjoy instant bonding roll-to-roll and enhanced sealability offered by the SEALLap™selvage treatment. They also benefit from fast end laps and more reliable seams with the granule-free FASTLap® design.

“Elevator portability for high-rise building projects is an added benefit. Since it’s not hot work, these systems are also good for crew retention. No large equipment, few tools, and a short learning curve all add up to an appealing, insurance friendly system,” states Tim McFarland, Mule-Hide Technical Director.

Building owners will like the environmentally friendly attributes and such fast installation means minimal disruption to building occupants and operations. Mule-Hide products are available nationwide to professional contractors at ABC Supply Co.
