TufSeal™ (HT-3000)

Av-DEC’s pre-cured polyurethane tape sealant has a fiberglass carrier and PTFE backing for one sided sealing. The tape is specifically designed for repeated use to seal and moisture-proof irregular surfaces where abrasion resistance is required. The system demonstrates excellent adhesion to itself (cohesion) and allows for easy removal when necessary. This product is also available in die cut in gasket form. Common uses are under floor boards, under lavs and galleys, under door sills and on stringers. This product is also available in flame retardant (FR).
