Learning how to seal leaking iron sheet roofs is important since they’re vulnerable to excessive moisture and damage from strong winds. The individual panels are attached to wood or metal trusses with steel nails or screws that can rust and cause leaks. Strong winds can separate the overlapping edges of the panels and allow the roof to leak.

To begin with, fixing leaks in iron sheet roofs starts with locating the source of the leaks. Subsequently, use the butyl aluminium tape to permanently fix the leaks/holes. Aluminium Butyl tape combines tough, durable aluminum foil with tacky butyl rubber adhesive to form an instant airtight and waterproof bond that permanently seals leaks and gaps. Undeniably, the tape can form an instant seal against water, air or dust, and remain permanently soft.

Equally important, butyl tape is a highly tacky, self-fusing butyl rubber mastic, ideal for making water and humidity resistant seals. The tape is a high tack sealant with excellent adhesion to metal, other roofing, and other insulating materials. Moreover, butyl tape maintains its tack and flexibility to temperatures as low as -20 degrees, and It maintains no flow at temperatures as high as 120 degrees.

Common applications include repairing cracks, leaks, and gaps as it forms a permanent airtight and waterproof seal. Other key features of aluminium butyl tapes include; Bonds to virtually any surface, Performs in all weather conditions, Great for indoor and outdoor use. Lastly, butyl tape is ideal for sealing pipes, gutters, roof alleys, trailers, shipping containers. Furthermore, the tape adheres quickly to almost any surface and is cold, heat, and water resistant
