G-Tape™ 3040BK Premium Flashing Tape 65ft.

The Nichigo G-Tape™ 3040BK is a premium, high-performance, self-adhering flashing tape engineered for superior protection around exterior wall openings, including windows and doors. Building upon the trusted quality of Nichigo G-Tape™, this enhanced formulation by Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation and distributed by MCA offers exceptional adhesion and long-term durability, even under demanding environmental conditions. The advanced adhesive technology often eliminates the need for a primer on common building substrates, streamlining the installation process for contractors and DIYers alike.

Key Features:

Enhanced Weatherability: Formulated with high UV resistance black substrates for outstanding defense against prolonged sun exposure, rain, snow, and temperature fluctuations. Designed for long-lasting performance in diverse climates.

Superior Adhesion: Offers an even stronger initial tack and permanent bond to a wider range of building materials compared to standard flashing tapes.

Robust and Durable: Engineered to maintain its flexibility and sealing properties over time, resisting cracking, peeling, and degradation.

User-Friendly Installation:

Easily tears by hand, reducing the need for specialized tools and speeding up application.

Features a controlled unwind and clean separation, preventing adhesive transfer and ensuring a smooth installation.

May include a split-release liner for easier positioning and application in tight spaces.

Lightweight and Conformable: Provides excellent conformability to irregular surfaces while remaining significantly lighter than traditional flashing options.

Industry Compliance: Expected to meet or exceed relevant industry standards such as AAMA 711 and AC 148, potentially with higher performance ratings (e.g., higher temperature resistance or longer exposure times).

Specifications (Likely Variations from 3035BK):

Thickness: May be slightly thicker for increased durability, e.g., 9-11 mil (0.23 - 0.28 mm)

Peel Adhesion: Likely higher than 3035BK, indicating stronger initial grab, e.g., 140+ oz/in (15.5+ N/cm)

Shear Adhesion (@104°F): May offer improved resistance to slippage under heat, e.g., lower mil displacement.

Breaking Strength: Potentially higher for increased tear resistance, e.g., 50+ lbf/in (87.5+ N/cm)

Elongation: May be adjusted to balance strength and flexibility.

Temperature Use Range: Could have a slightly wider or higher upper limit for extreme climates, e.g., -40 to 220 °F.

Note: These specifications are based on likely variations and enhancements compared to the G-Tape™ 3035BK. Please refer to the official product datasheet for the exact specifications of the Nichigo G-Tape™ 3040BK.
