- Product Highlights
PMA-186 is composed of high-quality asphalt and highly compatible SEBS (styrene-ethylene-butadiene-styrene) and SIS (styrene-isoprene-styrene) polymers imparting excellent adhesive and waterproofing properties to the overall roof membrane system. PMA-186 adhesive contains a unique blend of special fibers resulting in superior sag resistance and excellent weathering characteristics. PMA-186 is a cold process adhesive with superior sag resistance and excellent weathering conditions.
Additional Product Advantages
- The combination of SEBS and SIS polmers allows the adhesive to perform better at low temperatures and when exposed to the sun’s UV light.
- Can be installed on slopes up to 3:12.
- Since the adhesive is cold process, there is no need for torches or kettles on the job; helps ensure a more organized set up and fewer odors.
- Asbestos free.
