Top 5 Benefits of Using FrogTape™ Pro Grade Flashing Tape for Weatherproofing 

One of the primary functions of flashing tape is to create a barrier against water infiltration. With its weatherproof sealing capabilities, FrogTape Pro Grade Flashing Tape excels in this area. 

• Self-Healing: This tape is designed to self-heal around nails, screws and other fasteners. This means that even if the tape is punctured during installation, it will automatically seal around the hole, maintaining a continuous waterproof barrier. This feature is important in preventing leaks that could lead to mold, rot and other damage. 
• Performs in Versatile Climates: FrogTape Pro Grade Flashing Tape can withstand a wide range of environmental conditions. With the ability to resist UV rays for up to six months, the flashing tape can be exposed to the elements without degradation. Whether you’re working in a humid coastal area or a dry region, you can count on this all-weather flashing tape to perform. 

In the construction industry, time is money—meaning contractors need materials that are not only high quality but also quick and easy to work with. FrogTape Pro Grade Flashing Tape is designed with ease of installation in mind, so you can move into the next phase of your project faster. 

• Install in Heat or Cold: One of the standout features of this tape is its versatility in extreme temperatures. The flashing tape can be installed in temps from as low as 0°F (-18°C) to as high as 150°F (65°C). This wide range allows for installation in various climates and across seasons, helping you keep projects on schedule. Once installed, the tape performs consistently in temperatures ranging from -40°F (-40°C) to 240°F (115°C).  
• Apply Quickly and Efficiently: The wider-width (6in, 9 in, 12 in.) tape designs include a split release liner, which simplifies the process and protects the adhesive until it’s ready to be applied. The sealing tape’s conformable film backing also allows it to bend and adhere smoothly around edges and corners, reducing the risk of mess-ups and making sure your seal is tight.
• Repositionability as a Time Saver: FrogTape Pro Grade Flashing Tape uses ShurGRIP™ acrylic adhesive, which makes it initially repositionable. Unlike butyl or rubber asphaltic tapes, which can adhere to themselves during installation—leading to wasted tape when mistakes occur—FrogTape Pro Grade Flashing Tape's repositionable design allows contractors to make adjustments without sacrificing material. This feature not only helps save time but also reduces waste, ultimately cutting costs.

The effectiveness of flashing tape relies on its adhesive properties. FrogTape Pro Grade Flashing Tape's high-performance acrylic adhesive sets it apart from the competition and allows you to tackle diverse applications with confidence. 

• Build with Flexibility: ShurGRIP acrylic adhesive gives you the flexibility to adjust the tape during application for a perfect fit. The flexible flashing tape bonds well to a variety of building materials, including oriented strand board (OSB), glass-faced gypsum and concrete. This versatility makes it great for use in a wide range of construction projects, from homes to large commercial buildings.
• Integrate Effortlessly: The tape’s adhesive is also compatible with many sealants and caulks, as well as both flexible and rigid PVC window flanges. This means that the tape works in conjunction with other materials to create a strong, reliable seal.  

The impact of construction materials on the environment is a major consideration. FrogTape Pro Grade Flashing Tape is designed with sustainability at its core. 

• Choose Sustainable Strength: The tape is manufactured using UV-curing technology, which not only enhances its durability but also reduces the need for harmful chemicals used in traditional curing methods. This results in a safer, more sustainable product that doesn’t compromise on performance. 
• Show You Care: Unlike some other flashing tapes on the market, FrogTape Pro Grade Flashing Tape does not contain volatile organic compounds (VOCs). VOCs are harmful chemicals that may contribute to air pollution and health issues. By choosing a tape that is free from VOCs, you’re making a more environmentally responsible choice, improving your reputation. 

Moisture management is crucial in preventing damage to a building’s structure. FrogTape Pro Grade Flashing Tape goes beyond basic waterproofing by also serving as a semi-impermeable vapor barrier. 

• Prevent Unwanted Moisture: The tape functions as a Class II vapor retarder, with permeability ratings between 0.1 and 1.0 perms. This means it effectively prevents moisture vapor from penetrating the building, reducing the risk of condensation, mold and deterioration. This is particularly important where moisture control is a major concern, like in tropical or coastal climates. 
• Think Long-Term: Thanks to its solid construction and use of advanced materials, FrogTape Pro Grade Flashing Tape maintains its integrity over time, even in challenging conditions. Whether it’s exposed to fluctuating temperatures, humidity or direct sunlight, this tape continues to perform, providing lasting protection against the elements.
