APP Torch Base Premier

APP Torch Base Premier

APP Torch Base is an APP modified bitumen roofing membrane base sheet, reinforced with a fiberglass mat, saturated and coated with a polymerized asphaltic compound having exceptional waterproofing and weatherability characteristics. The top and bottom surfaces of APP Torch Base are finished with a poly film.

APP Torch Base membrane is designed for application as either a mechanically fastened or heat-welded (torch) applied base or interplay sheet. Applications include new roofing, recover (retrofit) and flashing detail. The system must be installed over an acceptable substrate or as part of a multi-ply system. APP Torch Base membrane may be used as a base sheet for self-adhered modified bitumen systems. It is not intended to be installed directly to a combustible substrate.
