G Tape
Premium Acrylic Substructure Moisture Protection
Protect your deck’s foundation from rot, moisture damage, and structural decay with GTape® Flashing Tape. Engineered with patented Nichigo G-Tape™ technology, this heavy-duty, self-adhering acrylic tape creates an unyielding waterproof barrier over deck joists, beams, and ledger boards. By shielding timber framing from water infiltration and the corrosive chemicals found in pressure-treated lumber, GTape ensures the substructure of your deck lasts as long as the premium boards on top.
The GTape® Advantage: Why Builders Choose It
-
Patented Acrylic Adhesive Technology
Unlike traditional joist tapes made from bitumen, asphalt, or butyl, GTape features an advanced acrylic adhesive layer. It is chemically stable, will not stain or leach over time, and remains completely safe for all building materials. -
100% Composite & PVC Decking Compatible
Its pure acrylic formulation guarantees total compatibility with all leading PVC and composite decking brands. It contains zero petroleum-based oils that could break down or negatively react with synthetic board substrates. -
Ultimate All-Weather Performance
Designed to withstand the toughest jobsite conditions. It applies smoothly across extreme temperature ranges, possesses exceptional UV resistance, and won't melt in intense summer heat or crack during freezing winter weather. -
Revolutionary Tear-by-Hand Convenience
Despite its incredible industrial tensile strength, GTape can be easily and cleanly torn straight across by hand. This eliminates the need for utility knives on the framing, drastically reducing installation time and increasing safety. -
Smart Repositioning & Self-Sealing Bond
The specialized adhesive allows you to lift and adjust the tape during installation without losing stickiness. Once deck screws are driven through it, the acrylic membrane self-seals tightly around the threads to prevent water from creeping into screw holes.
