ZIP Systems
It Lasts

Watch ZIP System tape stand up to the toughest tests, and learn how we engineer its lifelong durability.

Even after torturous heat, UV and water tests, ZIP System tape refuses to fail and lasts a lifetime.

LIFELONG DURABILITY

The acrylic adhesive in ZIP System tape resists heat and UV sunlight far better than butyl and asphalt. Cross-linked polymer chains create extremely strong molecular bonds that withstand a much wider range of temperatures. And they dissipate light energy, which can break the bonds in asphalt and butyl. In even severe conditions, ZIP System tape retains superior adhesion strength for years, which is why it is backed with an industry-leading 30-year limited warranty.


Acrylic adhesives withstand extreme UV light and heat.



Tested Tough

ZIP System tape must undergo rigorous tests to ensure its long life. It’s exposed for extended periods in various assemblies and is put through accelerated aging tests. Even in brutal wind-driven rain simulations, it withstands wind speeds of up to 110 miles per hour.
