FORMULA

Keep termites out. Put

YorkShield 106 TS

in.

• Provides superior protection against termites and

other insects

• Compatible with ACQ and all other treatments

for pressure-treated lumber

• New asphalt-free 100% rubber adhesive

will not stain concrete, vinyl or wood

• Compatible with all adhesives, caulks and sealants

• Thermal stability to 275°F

Since January 1, 2004, the EPA has

mandated that pressure-treated

lumber be arsenic-free. But the ACQ

treatment replacing arsenic-based

chemical preservatives contains a

higher level of copper…causing a

galvanic reaction that will corrode,

degrade, and destabilize the integrity

of aluminum ﬂashing. That’s why you

need YorkShield 106 TS.

Description YorkShield 106 TS™ is a copper termite barrier solution, made of a single sheet of 2 oz. copper and a tough polymer layer, laminated with 100% rubber adhesive. This composite material is supplied in 60' rolls, 8", 10" or 12" wide. The copper is flexible, easily formed on-site and the rubberized laminate offers excellent protection from the chemically-treated wood. Unlike aluminium termite shields, YorkShield 106 TS will not corrode or degrade when exposed to ACQ and other treatments.
