W R Meadows MEL ROLL LOW TEMP Rolled, Self-Adhering, Waterproofing Membrane
DESCRIPTION:
W R Meadows MEL ROLL LOW TEMP is a flexible, roll-type, waterproofing membrane, ideal for use in cold temperature applications. It is composed of a nominally 56-mil thick layer of polymeric waterproofing membrane formulated for maximum adhesion at lower temperatures on a heavy-duty, four-mil thick, cross-laminated polyethylene carrier film. The two components are laminated together under strict quality-controlled production procedures.
A handy overlap guideline is printed 2.5″ (63.5 mm) in from the material edge on each side to assure proper overlap coverage and to assist in maintaining a straight application. Special exposed polymeric membrane strips are provided on both sides for positive membrane-to-membrane adhesion in the overlap area. The membrane strips are protected by a pull-off release strip. All components of MEL-ROL LOW TEMP work together to provide a cost-effective, positive waterproofing system that’s quick and easy to apply. W. R. MEADOWS accessory products included in the MEL-ROL LOW TEMP waterproofing system are BEM, MEL-ROL LIQUID MEMBRANE, MEL-PRIME™ adhesive, POINTING MASTIC, DETAIL STRIP, HYDRALASTIC 836, TERMINATION BAR, PROTECTION COURSE, and MEL-DRAIN™ drainage board.
USES:
MEL-ROL LOW TEMP provides a cost-effective answer to properly waterproof foundations, vertical walls, and below-grade floors in residential and commercial construction in cold temperature conditions. It is equally effective for use as a between-the-slab waterproofing on plaza decks, parking decks, and structural slabs. Use it as a waterproofing membrane to isolate mechanical and electronic rooms, laboratories, and kitchens, and bathrooms. MEL-ROL LOW TEMP offers positive protection when “wrapped around” major rapid transit, vehicular, utility, and pedestrian tunnel projects.
Installation of PROTECTION COURSE is recommended before backfilling. It can also be used with drainage boards when specified.
