Ultra Flex Heat Block

High build elastomeric urethane/ acrylic based UV resistant trafficable (light foot traffic) membrane which incorporates additives which provide remarkable insulation properties.

Ultra Flex Heat Block is a high build elastomeric urethane/acrylic based UV resistant (light) trafficable membrane which incorporates additives which provide remarkable insulation properties, with reports of internal temperature being lowered by 12-15 degrees C. Heat Block is an off-white membrane which is flexible with excellent bridging capability allowing it to move with the substrate. The matt finish alleviates glare. For a smooth finish, if required, a sealer coat is available from Resinflow. Heat Block can be tinted within a narrow range of light colours. Heat Block is highly durable adding longer life to the substrate.

Features

• Outstanding heat re-radiating elastomeric membrane with over 400% stretch.
• Long life and hard wearing for use on all types of roofs, balconies and walls.
• Low cost and efficient it can minimise or eliminate heat damage to goods.

Recommended Uses

Heat Block is suitable for all roof types, walls and any surface where waterproofing and solar heat re-radiation and insulation are required. Heat Block can be applied to all types of shipping containers, fuel and food trucks. The substrate should be correctly primed before the application of the Heat Block. For refrigeration containers, the Heat Block reduces heat consumption when the cooling unit is on and minimises heat rise when cooling is off. Heat Block is a trafficable urethane/acrylic membrane with capabilities similar to Ultra Flex; however, as the coating is white, it will dirty quickly if trafficked. The dirtier it becomes, the less effective it will be.

Product Coverage

Unreinforced: 1.5 litres per square metre in two coats. Reinforced (not to be used for airless spray application): 2 to 2.5 litres per square metre in 2 to 3 coats. Heat Block with fibre additive is applied at the same rate as unreinforced applications.

Application Types

Heat Block can be applied by brush for smaller applications and where fibre mesh reinforcing is required. The product is suitable for roller coating by medium nap roller ensuring the second coat is applied at right angles to the first coat. For major applications the product is best applied by airless spray using a .045” tip.
