BITUTHENE® 3000 are self-adhesive, rubberized asphalt/polyethylene waterproofing membranes for elevated plaza and parking decks and below grade basements, tunnels, and other subterranean applications. GCP Applied Technologies’ (“GCP”) BITUTHENE® 3000 combine a robust, flexible, pre-formed high performance, cross laminated, HDPE carrier film with a tacky, self-adhesive rubberized asphalt compound specifically designed to adhere to cured concrete surfaces.
Product Advantages
- Specifically designed as a barrier to water, moisture, and gas by physically isolating the structure from the surrounding substrate
- Cross laminated film is dimensionally stable, with high tear strength, puncture, and impact resistance
- Cold applied – No flame hazard; self-adhesive overlaps designed to provide membrane continuity
- Chemically resistant to most soil conditions, membrane is designed to provide effective external protection against aggressive soils and groundwater
- Flexible – Elongation in excess of 300% helps accommodate minor settlement and shrinkage movement
- Controlled thickness – Factory-made sheet allows for constant, non-variable site application
- RIPCORD® integrated filament split release on demand – Ease of membrane positioning in detailed areas
Wide application window -
- BITUTHENE® low temperature membrane when surface and ambient temperatures are between 25°F (-4 °C) and 60°F (16 °C)
- BITUTHENE® 3000 membrane for use when surface and ambient temperatures are at 40 °F (5°C) or above
