Bituthene Low Temp Roll: Waterproofing Membrane
$205.00
- Specifically designed as a barrier to water, moisture, and gas by physically isolating the structure from the surrounding substrate
- Cross laminated film is dimensionally stable, with high tear strength, puncture, and impact resistance
- Cold applied – No flame hazard; self-adhesive overlaps designed to provide membrane continuity
- Chemically resistant to most soil conditions, membrane is designed to provide effective external protection against aggressive soils and groundwater
- Flexible – Elongation in excess of 300% helps accommodate minor settlement and shrinkage movement
- Controlled thickness – Factory-made sheet allows for constant, non-variable site application
- Ripcord integrated filament split release on demand – Ease of membrane positioning in detailed areas
- Bituthene low temp membrane when surface and ambient temperatures are between 25°F (-4 °C) and 60°F (16 °C
- Bituthene 3000 membrane for use when surface and ambient temperatures are at 40 °F (5°C) or above

Bituthene Low Temp Roll: Waterproofing Membrane
Bituthene Low Temp is ideal for waterproofing concrete, masonry and wood surfaces where surface and ambient temperatures are between 25°F (-4 °C) and 60°F (16 °C. It can be applied to foundation walls, tunnels, earth sheltered structures and split slab construction, both above and below grade. (For above grade applications, see Above Grade Waterproofing Bituthene 3000 and Bituthene Low Temperature.) Bituthene is 1/16 in. (1.5 mm) thick, 3 ft (0.9 m) wide and 66.7 ft (20 m) long and is supplied in rolls. It is unrolled, sticky side down, onto concrete slabs or applied onto vertical concrete faces primed with Bituthene Primer WP-3000, Primer B2 or Primer B2 LVC. Continuity is achieved by overlapping a minimum 2 in. (50 mm) and firmly rolling the joint. Bituthene is extremely flexible. It is capable of bridging shrinkage cracks in the concrete and will accommodate minor differential movement throughout the service life of the structure. Questions about Grace Bituthene low temp?

Safety, Storage and Handling Information:
Bituthene products must be handled properly. Vapors from solvent-based primers and mastic are harmful and flammable. For these products, the best available information on safe handling, storage, personal protection, health and environmental considerations has been gathered. SDS (Safety Data Sheet) are available at gcpat.com and users should acquaint themselves with this information. Carefully read detailed precaution statements on product labels and the SDS before use.
Surface Preparation:
Surfaces should be structurally sound and free of voids, spalled areas, loose aggregate and sharp protrusions. Remove contaminants such as grease, oil and wax from exposed surfaces. Remove dust, dirt, loose stone and debris. Concrete must be properly dried (minimum 7 days for normal structural concrete and 14 days for lightweight structural concrete).
Insulation:
Always apply Bituthene membrane directly to primed or conditioned structural substrates. Insulation, if used, must be applied over the membrane. Do not apply Bituthene membranes over lightweight insulating concrete.
Backfill:
Place backfill as soon as possible. Use care during backfill operation to avoid damage to the waterproofing system. Follow generally accepted practices for backfilling and compaction. Backfill should be added and compacted in 6 in. (150 mm) to 12 in. (300 mm) lifts. For areas which cannot be fully compacted, a termination bar is recommended across the top termination of the membrane.
