Class W1 Window Sealing Membrane
ME501 is a high strength, tear resistant, air and weathertight, window & door sealing membrane made from polyethylene copolymer film with non-woven fabric. It can be applied before or after window installation to suit on-site details and programming. The membrane is attached to the window and construction material with SP525 Frame and Facade Sealant & Adhesive. ME501 is also available as a self-adhesive ME501VV.
ME501 provides a high performance seal to the perimeter joint between the window/curtain wall and the construction reveal. Due to the intelligent, variable vapour permeability (sd value), when used in an internal UK (warm) environment, it will be vapour-tight, and when used in an external UK (cold) environment it will be vapour open. This means that the membrane is suitable for interior and exterior use providing an air-tight and weather-tight seal whilst always complying with inside tighter than outside principles.
