FiberTite® 50 Mil XT Membrane

Seaman Corporation’s 50 mil FiberTite-XT membrane features an 18 x 18 / 1,100 x 1,300 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

    50 mil FiberTite-XT is a 42-oz sq. yd/nominal 50-mil (1.27 mm)
    thick membrane and is an Xtra-Tough version of the FiberTite
    family of membranes. 50 mil FiberTite-XT not only exceeds
    all requirements enumerated in ASTM D6754-15 Standard
    Specification for Ketone Ethylene Ester (KEE) Based Sheet
    Roofing, but exceeds the physical properties and performance
    characteristics of 90-mil competitive products.
    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.
    50 mil FiberTite-XT 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, 50 mil
    FiberTite-XT exhibits superior tear, puncture, fungus, algae and
    flame resistance that make FiberTite Roofing Systems some of
    the most sustainable roofing systems available.
    50 mil FiberTite-XT membrane is manufactured in conventional
    74-in and 100-in wide by 100-ft roll goods. 50 mil FiberTite-XT is also available in customized prefabricated roll widths and
    lengths that incorporate integrated fastening tabs, sealing tabs
    and also “no-tab” rolls of membrane up to 20-ft wide by 100-ft
    in length. Field seaming of the membrane is accomplished by
    fusing the thermoplastic membrane with conventional hot air
    welding equipment.

    Application

    50 mil FiberTite-XT Roofing Systems carry extensive FM Global
    and Underwriters Laboratories approvals. 50 mil FiberTite-XT
    Roofing Systems can be installed by mechanically fastening the
    membrane with FiberTite Magnum Fasteners and Stress Plates
    or adhering the membrane in FTR 190e bonding adhesive to preapproved substrates. 50 mil FiberTite-XT can also be installed in
    typical ballast configurations using conventional stone or paver
    ballast.
    For specific installation recommendations and requirements,
    please consult the most current versions of Seaman Corporation’s
    Guide Specifications for the Installation of FiberTite Roofing
    Systems.
