Finish smart to assure a tight
building envelope. It's important to assure a tight building envelope when windows and siding are installed. This can be accomplished by sealing cracks and seams and installing flashing around rough openings. TYPAR offers all the accessories needed to maintain building integrity as part of the complete TYPAR® Weather Protection System. TYPAR Flashings and Construction Tape
complete the system.  TYPAR® Flashing Flex
A conformable, composite peel and stick flashing product, ideal to flash around curved windows. Use it on window flanges, sill plates, corners and joints to improve air and moisture holdout. Based on a two-ply oriented high density polyethylene film, mated to a premium butyl rubber adhesive and release sheet.  TYPAR® Flashing BA
This modified bloc co-polymer flashing is based on TYPAR's proven weather-resistant barrier and sealant technology, compatible with TYPAR® HouseWrap and Construction Tape. Features Quik-Peel™ split back release paper for easy positioning and flexible installation.  TYPAR® Flashing RA™
A rubberized asphalt flashing that is an affordable choice with best-in-class performance. Designed for use in the TYPAR® Weather Protection System, which is backed by a 10-year limited installed warranty. It has all of the advantages of Flashing BA while offered at a lower price.
Many commonly used sealants and caulks contain solvents and plasticizers which can react with the rubberized asphalt adhesive on flashing system. Make sure caulks or sealants coming in contact with the adhesive portion of RA flashing do not contain plasticizers or solvent. This includes most polyurethane and silicone caulks.  TYPAR® Construction Tape
A strong, coated polypropylene film that seals seams and edges to ensure the integrity of the building envelope. Use it on window flanges, corners, joints and seams to improve the building envelope and air and moisture holdout. Won’t deteriorate over time providing years of reliable performance.
TYPAR Flashings and Construction Tape play a critical role in assuring seams, edges and openings are “buttoned up” to assure the highest level of system performance. In fact, sealing all joints with tape improves the wrap’s performance by approximately 20%.* *Source: EERE, Consumer’s Guide: Air Barriers, U.S. Department of Energy, 2006, www.eere.energy.gov. ** Installations methods approved by the American Architectural Manufacturers Association (AAMA) are acceptable for TYPAR products and system warrantee.
