Storage

 EasyBase rolls must be stored indoors, in a dry location.

 Boxes must be stored on end only. Do not store in a leaning position.

 The rolls must be protected from the elements. Do not expose rolls to direct sunlight.

 Store rolls at room temperatures. Prolonged exposure to elevated temperatures may reduce the adhesive

characteristics of the membrane.

General Precautions

 Install EasyBase only when material interface temperatures (air, deck, material) are 40° F and rising.

 Do not install when any form of moisture such as water, ice, snow, dew, rain, etc. is present.

 Ensure roof has proper slope and drainage prior to installation. The roof must meet Tarco’s minimum

slope requirements.

 Proper ventilation is critical. When applying over the entire roof deck, the rooﬁng system must provide

sufﬁcient ventilation, including both ridge and sofﬁt venting.

 A full, irreversible adhesion is achieved when the membrane goes through a complete heat cycle. Do not

attempt to remove the membrane immediately after adhesion to the substrate.

 Use of a hand-held “hot air gun” might help in enhancing adhesion during application of membrane in

cooler weather.

 EasyBase must be covered with a ﬁnished roof covering within the

speciﬁed exposure time of the product. Refer to section on Features

and Beneﬁts for exposure time.

Features and Benefits

 Multiple uses as base sheet for self-adhered, torched, hot mopped and

cold applied applications.

 No speciﬁc tools required. Clean, easy to handle, peel and stick self-

adhering application.

 No fumes during application, eliminating odors caused by adhesives and hot asphalt.

 30-40% quicker installation than conventional application.

 Ultraviolet resistant polyoleﬁnic ﬁlm surface.

 Glass ﬁber reinforcement ensures exceptional dimensional stability.

 ASTM standard – ASTM D4601

 Meets and/or exceeds the applicable sections of ASTM D 6163 and ASTM D 1970 speciﬁcations.

 ICC-ES ESR3297

 30 day exposure limit.

 Miami Dade County Approval NOA No. 12-0703.06 and 12-0703.05

 Florida Building Code Approved - FL 9487.R4

 Texas Department of Insurance Approval RC-152

 UL Classiﬁed (R 13228) for use in Class A and B roofs.

LeakBarrier EasyBase is designed as base sheet for self-adhering

membrane systems. EasyBase is also an ideal base sheet for torch, hot mop

and cold applied conventional applications.

LeakBarrier® EasyBase™ Self-Adhering Base Sheet LeakBarrier EasyBase is a premium, SBS modified, glass fiber reinforced, self-adhesive modified bituminous base sheet for use in most low slope and steep slope roof system applications. LeakBarrier EasyBase is a perfect alternative to the application of roofing using conventional application methods of torching, hot asphalt mopping, or using cold applied adhesives.
PAGE 2
Surface Preparation Surface must be clean, dry, and without voids that may interfere with adhesion. For re-roofing, all old roofing and other loose materials must be removed prior to installation. Acceptable substrates for adhesion of LeakBarrier membranes can be found at the Tarco website. For best results, surface may be primed with an ASTM D 41 Primer prior to installation of EasyBase. When primer is used, ensure the primer is fully dry prior to application of EasyBase.
