Huber engineered woods introduces zip system stretch tape
Huber Engineered Woods Introduces ZIP Systemâ„¢ Stretch Tape
ZIP System stretch tape, from Huber Engineered Woods, is described as a one-piece installation flashing tape unlike any other product in the market. Made of a high performance composite acrylic that easily stretches to fit sills, curves and corners, it is engineered to install even easier than before and to provide a better way of sealing mismatched surfaces. ZIP System stretch tape aims to provide a strong bond for an effective ZIP IT TIGHT® seal, preventing air and moisture from penetrating a home. ZIP System stretch tape also makes quick work of window installations. Best practices call for a 2″ overhang onto sheathing, a 6″ minimum up each jamb, and shims at each corner prior to placing windows.
