FiberTite® 36 Mil Fleece back Membrane

Seaman Corporation’s 36 mil FiberTite-FB “fleece back” membrane features an 18 x 19 / 840 x 1,000 denier weft

reinforced polyester knit fabric, coated with a proprietary compound, utilizing DuPont’s™ Elvaloy® Ketone Ethylene

Ester (KEE) as the principle polymer in the hybrid vinyl alloy coating.

Specification
  • Description

    36 mil FiberTite-FB “fleece back” is a 30-oz sq. yd/nominal

    36-mil (0.9 mm) thick membrane. In addition to exceeding the

    ASTM D 6754-15 Standard Specification for Ketone Ethylene

    Based Sheet Roofing’s minimum standards, 36 mil FiberTiteFB meets or exceeds the physical properties and performance

    characteristics of most competitive 50-mil membranes.

    The 36 mil FiberTite-FB membrane incorporates a 4-oz per sq.

    yd non-woven polyester felt, heat bonded to the back side of

    the membrane with a 3-in selvedge edge for field welding. 36

    mil FiberTite-FB is manufactured in conventional 72-in by 80-ft

    roll goods.

    Seaman Corporation is vertically integrated, which allows

    complete control over the manufacturing process from the

    selection of the yarns, to the engineering, knitting and weaving

    of the base fabrics to the final coating process. Today, FiberTite

    Roofing Membranes are the result of Seaman Corporation’s 60

    years of applied fabric engineering and coating technology.

    All FiberTite Roofing Membranes are constructed using

    high tenacity/heavy weight yarns to create a base fabric

    reinforcement to impart superior puncture, tensile and tear

    resistance properties. The base polyester fabrics are primed with

    a unique and proprietary adhesive coat that lays the foundation

    to physically bond the KEE coatings to the “fiber” to maximize

    seam strength and overall membrane performance.

    36 mil FiberTite-FB is coated face and back with Seaman

    Corporation’s original “KEE” formulation to provide superior

    hot air welding characteristics, extreme UV resistance, broad

    chemical resistance and long-term flexibility and reparability

    for the installed roofing membrane system. Additionally, 36 mil

    FiberTite-FB exhibits superior tear, puncture, fungus, algae and

    flame resistance that make FiberTite Roofing Systems some of

    the most sustainable roofing systems available.

    Application

    36 mil FiberTite-FB Roofing Systems are installed by adhering
    the “fleece back” membrane in FTR-290 low VOC solvent borne
    adhesive, FTR-390 water borne asphalt emulsion, FTR-490
    water borne elastomeric adhesive, FTR CR-20, or hot asphalt to
    a variety of pre-approved substrates.
