CRL 7241YP3 Tremco POLYshim II Black Butyl Architectural Tape 3/16" x 3/8"CRL 7241YP3 Black 3/16" x 3/8" Tremco POLYshim II Butyl Architectural Tape is an essential component for achieving high-performance glazing in various applications. This 100% solids, highly adhesive, and elastic butyl tape is specifically designed for use in compression glazing systems, including curtain walls, unitized curtain walls, and sloped glazing. One of the standout features of POLYshim II Tape is its continuous integral EPDM shim, which effectively prevents sealant squeeze-out under pressure from building and glass movement. This resilient shim also minimizes glass breakage by eliminating pressure points caused by improper shimming, ensuring a reliable installation every time. It is compatible with a wide range of glazing systems and boasts excellent adhesion, heat resistance, and weathering durability. The tape has a hardness of 57 durometer Shore "00" and operates within a temperature range from -65°F to 200°F. It meets AAMA 800-92 specifications, ensuring compliance with industry standards. With a roll length of 25 ft (8 m) and a thickness of 0.215 in. (5 mm), this black butyl tape is a versatile choice for building professionals looking to enhance their glazing projects.

CRL Tremco® POLYshim™ II Tape is a 100 percent solids, highly adhesive and elastic, cross linked preformed butyl tape. Use it in compression glazing systems wherever the design calls for high performance glazing of curtain wall, unitized curtain walls, punched and ribbon window systems, and sloped glazing applications.
The continuous rubber shim works to prevent sealant squeeze-out because it is resilient to pressure exerted by building and glass expansion or contraction. It also helps prevent glass breakage by eliminating pressure points created by improper shimming. The continuous shim eliminates the need for preshimming the lite before installing the tape. Tremco® Pre-Shimmed tape has good adhesion, heat resistance, sealant compatibility, and resistance to weathering. It can be used in conjunction with many glazing systems.
