The two detailing tapes for PREFLEX 3000. NS Tape for concealed laps, S Tape for exposed edges.

PREFLEX 3000 tapes close the laps and details on the PREFLEX 3000 pre-applied HDPE membrane. Unsanded NS Tape is double-sided and sits under the next sheet. Sanded S Tape has an adhesive underside and a sand-finished top for details that stay exposed to the fresh concrete.

What it's for

  • NS Tape: concealed side and end laps, transitions and details where the next sheet bonds over it
  • S Tape: exposed terminations, edge sealing, circular corner pieces and repair sealing

Why waterproofers buy it

  • Approved PREFLEX 3000 system components, so warranty eligibility holds

Specs

Variants: Unsanded (NS Tape, double-sided) and Sanded (S Tape, sand-finished top).

Technical overview

PREFLEX 3000 NS Tape is the double-sided seam and detail tape of the PREFLEX 3000 pre-applied membrane system. It closes concealed side and end laps, transitions and details where the next sheet bonds over it, and is used beneath overlapping sheets at external corners and returns, on the L-shaped wall-to-floor return, and beneath PREFLEX 3000 patches where damage is greater than 12 mm. It must never remain exposed to fresh concrete and must never be substituted for PREFLEX 3000 S Tape at an exposed detail. The tape carries no Technical Data Sheet of its own; its requirements are stated in the PREFLEX 3000 TDS, which publishes no dimensions or physical properties for it. No accredited test certificate is held for the tape.

Key applications

  • Concealed side and end laps between PREFLEX 3000 sheets
  • Transitions and detailing where the next sheet bonds over the tape
  • External corners and returns, beneath the overlapping sheets
  • L-shaped wall-to-floor returns over the floor field
  • Bonding PREFLEX 3000 patches where damage is greater than 12 mm

PREFLEX 3000 NS Tape must never remain exposed to fresh concrete - it is a concealed tape only, and must never be substituted for PREFLEX 3000 S Tape at an exposed detail. No NS Tape may be left exposed beyond a patch edge, and the pre-pour release cannot be signed off while any NS Tape is exposed. Selvedges and receiving surfaces must be clean and dry before closing, and standing water, mud and frost must not be trapped beneath laps. No screws, nails or washers through field sheets or any adhesive lap zone.

Frequently asked questions

View all FAQs
  • What is PREFLEX 3000 Detailing Tape used for?
    Compatibility

    PREFLEX 3000 Detailing Tape is a high-performance unsanded double-sided tape engineered specifically for the PREFLEX 3000 pre-applied HDPE sheet membrane system. Used at overlaps, terminations, and vertical-to-horizontal transitions.

  • Why no sand?
    Performance

    The standard PREFLEX 3000 membrane has a sand layer for mechanical interlock with concrete. The detailing tape omits the sand to allow direct bonding at lap edges and terminations - giving the cleanest possible weld at critical joins.

  • Where is it used?
    Installation

    Applied at PREFLEX 3000 sheet overlaps, around penetrations (pipe collars, drains), at the perimeter terminations of the membrane, and at vertical-to-horizontal transitions where two pieces of PREFLEX meet at right angles.

  • Is it compatible with other membranes?
    Compatibility

    PREFLEX 3000 Detailing Tape is engineered specifically for the PREFLEX 3000 system. For other membrane systems use the matched detailing tape from that system (FLEXTAPE for liquid membranes, SA TAPE for sheet detail work).

  • How thick is it?
    Performance

    Double-sided heat-reactive adhesive layer designed for sealed laps in tight areas. Refer to the PREFLEX 3000 installation manual for exact dimensions and roll specifications.
