Description

DuPont™ Weathermate™ Construction Tape from DuPont is a durable sealing tape with excellent adhesion properties to help protect homes and building against moisture and air intrusion. Weathermate™ Construction Tape is pliable – ensuring a tight seal, even at extremely low temperatures – and its oriented polypropylene backing is formulated with a UV-treated film to help resist degradation from exposure to sunlight.

Weathermate™ Construction Tape is the recommended tape for sealing joints and seams of Weathermate™ housewraps. It provides a tight bond to housewrap surfaces to seal seams and enhance resistance to moisture and air infiltration.

  • Strong Adhesion & Durability: Excellent tack with enhanced grip; impact-resistant and designed for reliable long-term sealing
  • Wide Temperature Performance: Applies in cold conditions and performs across extreme temperatures with freeze-thaw tolerance
  • UV-Resistant Backing: Oriented polypropylene backing with UV-treated film helps resist sunlight degradation
  • Cost-Saving Repairs: Can patch housewrap damage to reduce material waste and maintain weather resistance
