The butyl-based tape helps deck screws hold longer and stronger than acrylic or asphalt-based tape
Acts as a barrier between the wood and galvanized metal such as joist hangers
Seals deck fasteners and prevents moisture penetration
Eliminates splitting from freeze and thaw
Provides a non-skid surface making it safer during installation
Available in three widths for joists, double beams and rim joists
Backed by a 25-year warranty

Clean the joist surface making sure it is dry and free of debris.
Remove the butyl tape backing while applying directly to the surface. Run your hand over the tape and firmly press it onto the joists and beams.
After covering all horizontal and vertical surfaces, cut the tape to length with a utility knife or scissors.

Apply to horizontal and vertical surfaces including all joists, rim joists, beams, steps, stair stringers, blocking, ledger board, and under joists hangers.
