Self-Adhesive Bituminous Waterproofing Membrane
ARDEX WPM 117 (also known as Shelterstick) is a high-performance, cold-applied bituminous membrane designed for absolute waterproofing security. This self-adhesive solution eliminates the need for open flames, making it the ideal choice for safety-critical sites and underground structures.
*Professional installation by a certified installer is recommended to ensure warranty compliance*
Key Features & Benefits
- High Hydrostatic Resistance: Engineered to withstand significant water pressure in demanding underground environments and retaining walls.
- Cold-Applied Safety: No naked flames or torching required, significantly reducing site fire hazards and insurance risks.
- Advanced Self-Sealing: The SBS bitumen compound automatically seals around fasteners or accidental minor punctures for continuous protection.
- Chemical Durability: Highly resistant to common soil pollutants, alkalis, and acids found in ground conditions.
Typical Applications
ARDEX WPM 117 is specifically designed for waterproofing foundations, tunnels, and retaining walls. It is highly effective on isolation panels, wood, and painted surfaces where traditional torch-on methods are restricted. It can also be utilized as a high-tack underlay for multi-layer torch-on systems by lightly heating the top film.
