Key Features Taping the joints of FOAMULAR® XPS with HomeSealR™ Foam Joint Tape provides the following benefits from the foam and tape assembly: • Enhances the thermal and moisture resistance of buildings by minimizing intrusion of unconditioned, moisture laden air into the wall assembly • Provides a secondary layer of external moisture resistance behind the cladding to protect Roll Dimensions Minimum Order Quantity the building • Reduces thermal bridging in wood and steel stud wall assemblies Product Applications HomeSealR™ Foam Joint Tape is a self-adhering seam tape recommended for use in residential vertical wall assemblies for sealing the joints between panels of FOAMULAR® XPS insulation. FOAMULAR® XPS joints sealed with HomeSealR™ Foam Joint Tape • Meets criteria of water resistive barrier in accordance with AC71. • Qualifies as air barrier material per ASTM E2178. Technical Information To obtain best adhesion, HomeSealR™ Foam Joint Tape should be installed when outdoor temperatures are above 10°F and below 120°F.
