Where thereis stress or pressure on the join e.g. wind loading, a more secure means of securing the join must be investigated. Where it is difficult to apply sufficient pressure on the tape, apply a 25 cm long piece of tape across the join at 1.0 m spacing. Where possible, the length of the tape used should not only cover the length of the join, but continue around the next edge to provide an ‘anchor point’.If possible, arrange joins adjacent to a hard unyielding backing surface so that maximum pressure can be achieved when applying the tape. \u003c\/div\u003e When taping Kingspan Insulation products, a plastic squeegee or blade must be used to apply suitable pressure to the tape. Apply pressure as the aluminium foil tape is being rolled out, rather than after the application, to achieve maximum adhesion, following the surface contours of the Kingspan Insulation products. Don't flatten the contours out with the foil insulation tape. Care should also be taken to ensure that the material joined by the tape is not liable or subject to movement. Movement of the two surfaces joined by the tape can create excessive pressure on the join and can lead to tape failure. These tapes are not to be used as mechanical joining devices.
