BOND-N-FLASH, the new stainless steel composite flashing, has been tested to meet ASTM E84 for fire resistance. With exceptional UV protection performance, effortless pliability and excellent puncture and tear resistance, BOND-N-FLASH lasts the life of the wall structure. The single sheet of type 304 stainless steel at 2 mils makes BOND-N-FLASH extremely flexible and easy to form on-site. The clear adhesive coating at 8 mils will not drool from UV and heat exposure. BOND-N-FLASH remains UV resistant, allowing for extended inspection time and workability.
