BITUMAT ELASTIGARD is a superior, quality, liquid, cold applied rubber modified bitumen coating, reinforced with mineral stabilizers, gelling agent and special additives to prevent degradation due to oxidation, ozone and UV. It also has special additives for better adhesion.
The surface must be thoroughly cleaned and should be free of dirt, gravel, dust and oil. The concrete should be dry and smooth. When applying directly over concrete or old, dry, asphalt, prime first a BITUMAT primer.
When using as a top coat to protect and rejuvenate existing smooth asphalt roofs, first repair all blisters, cracks, split seams and flashings with BITUMAT ELASTIFLASH.
The coating is applied straight from the container using a standard roofing broom, brush, squeegee or airless spray equipment at the recommended coverage rates.
BITUMAT ELASTIGARD elastomeric coating is ideal for roofing work where there may be thermal and structural expansion and contraction of the roof membrane, deck or structure due to sudden temperature changes, foundation shifting, deck deflection, absence of working deck expansion points, etc.
Recommended for maintenance, and repair of existing roofs, construction of new polyester reinforced built-up roofs, cap sheeting over existing roof and waterproofing of concrete walls, floors, bridges or any other surface requiring waterproofing or protection with an elastic, flexible coating.
BITUMAT ELASTIGARD is a highly elastic product, and cures to a rubber like membrane capable of withstanding severe cases of expansion, contraction and deck movements
Highly resistant to oxidation, UV light and ozone because of unique additives used in compounding it. It does not crack.
More durable than normal asphalt coating and lasts longer than most other coatings.
Superior wetting and adhesion properties ensure durable bond and resistant to peeling, chipping, separation and a longer life
Has the unique property of adapting itself over the irregular contours of the deck and forming a waterproof and impervious blanket.
Single component, cold applied, requiring no mixing or heating; saves labour costs.
Flammable; contains petroleum distillate. Keep away from open fire, sparks or other ignition sources. Wear protective clothing, gloves and goggles.
Fire - Flammable when wet, flash point 40°C.
Skin - Avoid repeated or prolonged contact; if contact occurs remove with hand cleaner that removes oil or grease, then clean with soap and water
Eyes - Contact could cause irritation; if contact occurs flush with clean water.
Inhalation - Can cause dizziness. Remove to fresh air and if breathing difficulty persists, administer oxygen.
20-litre pails and 200-litre drums.
Exceeds the performance requirements of ASTM-D-4479.
Bitumat was founded in 1984 but its roots go back to 1975 when the founders became involved in the roofing waterproofing industry as dealer and applicator in Saudi Arabia for a major manufacturer from the U.S.A.
