Tested sealing properties over 600 Pa, BG1 and BGR in accordance with DIN 18542:2020-04
Tested and certified resistance to driving rain by complying with the necessary test parameters.
A product from the Würth Sealing System
The individual product components from the Würth Sealing System are matched to each other with regard to material compatibility.
Excellent ecological compatibility
Tested ecological safety according to GEV test method (class EC 1 PLUS).
Solvent-free and EMICODE EC1 plus
Safe to humans and the environment
Bridging of large joint differences that will withstand driving rain
Due to the tape's large tolerance, component movements can be compensated and common construction tolerances can be bridged more effectively. This reduces the number of tape sizes used.
Water-repellent, yet permeable to water vapour
When compressed accordingly, the tape seals against driving rain; however, due to its permeability to vapour, it provides excellent compensation of moisture.
Perimeter sealing systems according to ift certification programme QM360: 2014, reg. no. 188 7050098
EMICODE EC1plus: Very low emission – the EMICODE classification system characterises the environmental and health compatibility of construction products. The lowest-emission products bear the EC1plus mark.
The reset times are not subject to a certain specification and are only based on empirical values. They are dependent on the storage time and the storage and processing temperature. The longer the storage times and the lower the processing temperature, the longer the reset times.
Resistance to UV and weathering can only be ensured if installation is performed such that it will withstand driving rain.

Datasheets(X)
Function:
The pre-compressed, one-sided self-adhesive VKP Plus sealing tape seals joints reliably and permanently. After the compression is released, the sealing tape develops a resilience that presses firmly against the joint edges and compensates for uneven areas of the joint. Depending on the installation period, the non-adhesive side develops a slight anchoring on the adjacent building material.
In construction:
Expansion joints, seals between prefabricated components, window and door connections, partition walls.
General industry:
Container construction, air-conditioning system construction, machine and apparatus construction etc.
- Clean the joint/surface of oil, grease and loose material
- Remove the cover paper from the sealing tape
- Affix the sealing tape to the surface, or lay directly from the roller into the joint and lightly press into place
- Cut off approx. 2 cm from the beginning and end of the tape
- Lay the tape so that it is blunt; do not lay around corners
- Take the additional length of approx. 2 cm/m into account when cutting the tape to length
- Sealing function cannot be guaranteed in conditions with standing water
- Please observe the specified joint width. Only by doing so can resistance to driving rain and UV be guaranteed.
