Sisalkraft 420 Vapour Check Waterproof underlay / separation layer & vapour check Condensation resistant non slip surface Accreditation : BS 1521 A1F
Sisalkraft 420 is a waterproof Building paper meeting the requirements of BS 1521 A1F. It is used as a waterproofing/weatherproofing layer in Building construction, as a vapour check membrane and for temporary protection and separation where a tough, water resistant material is needed. Construction Sisalkraft 420 is a traditional waterproof building paper, with two piles of wet-strength pure kraft paper laminated together with bitumen, reinforced with glass fibre yarn.

Vapour Resistance 68 MNs/g Fixing/Sitework Store rolls before use on end on a clean, dry surface protected from the weather. Material should not be unrolled if the temperature is below 5°C as the adhesive will become brittle and may crack. Depending on application, .
Sisalkraft 420 is laid over flat surfaces or fixed to studwork, formwork or similar. It may be stapled, nailed or fixed with self-adhesive tapes. Sisalkraft 420 can be folded, and cut easily using a knife or scissors. The bitumen adhesive will tend to seal around nails or other fixings to maintain a water and water vapour tight construction. Edges should be overlapped by at least 100mm, and if the installation is intended to be waterproof or water vapour-tight the seams should be welted or taped using a durable self-adhesive polymer tape. Sisalkraft 420 is not intended as a primary weatherproofing layer and should be covered by other materials if wet or windy weather is expected.
