Product Description

FOX MONOTAPE 120/70 is a thermoplastic elastomer-based joint waterproofing tape used for sealing and waterproofing expansion joints. The tape features an elastic rubber centre and polyester mesh edges, with a thickness of 0.67 mm and a total width of 120 mm (70 mm coverage width). Thanks to its water and air impermeability, it can be safely used in wet areas, swimming pools, water tanks, and treatment plants, as well as in any structural section requiring expansion joint and crack waterproofing. The white tape operates across a wide temperature range of -30°C to +90°C and offers high resistance to UV, ozone, acid, and alkali effects. Its perforations also allow mechanical fixing when applied together with waterproofing materials.

Advantages

Application Steps

  1. 1

    Surface Preparation

    The inner and outer surfaces of the joints where FOX MONOTAPE 120/70 is to be applied must be sound and free from any oil, grease, rust, paraffin, paint, and bitumen residues that could impair adhesion; all loose particles must be removed. Surface defects must be repaired with FOX MORTAR FC188 T.

  2. 2

    First Coat Waterproofing

    The first coat of the preferred waterproofing material is applied over the joint.

  3. 3

    Tape Placement

    FOX MONOTAPE 120/70 is placed onto the applied waterproofing material and embedded within it. The polyester mesh sections are pressed firmly with a brush and thoroughly covered with the waterproofing material.

  4. 4

    Application of Final Coats

    After the first coat of waterproofing has cured, the remaining coats are applied to complete the process.

Critical

FOX MONOTAPE 120/70 must be embedded within wet waterproofing materials.

Critical

Sharp, piercing, and hard tools must not be used.

Important

After the tape has been applied, waterproofing materials must be brought over FOX MONOTAPE 120/70.

Important

Store in original unopened packaging in a cool, dry environment, protected from frost.

Important

For short-term storage, pallets must not be stacked more than 2 high and shipment must follow a first-in, first-out system. For long-term storage, pallets must not be stacked on top of each other.

Critical

Approaching storage and application areas with open flame is dangerous; these areas must be ventilated.

Important

During application, appropriate work clothing, protective gloves, goggles, and a mask must be worn in accordance with occupational health and safety regulations.

Critical

During storage and application, avoid contact with skin and eyes; in case of contact, wash immediately with plenty of water and soap; if swallowed, seek medical attention immediately.

Important

Food and beverages must not be brought into application areas. Store out of reach of children.
