Armour
High-Strength Protection for Demanding Roofing Applications.
Armour is engineered for demanding roofing applications, combining high tear and puncture resistance, excellent dimensional stability, and a slip-resistant surface for improved footing on steep, wet, or dusty slopes. Designed for mechanical fastening, Armour provides a reliable secondary barrier against moisture intrusion while maintaining dependable performance across a wide range of temperatures.
Built for challenging jobsite conditions, Armour remains flexible for installation in temperatures as low as −40°F and is designed for dependable performance at temperatures up to 240°F. Its extended 180-day UV exposure protection also provides added flexibility when roofing projects are delayed or the underlayment remains exposed during construction.
Key Advantages:
- High-Strength Reinforcement – Reinforced high-tenacity backing provides superior tear and puncture resistance for demanding jobsite conditions.
- Slip-Resistant Surface – Provides improved traction and footing during installation on steep-slope roofs, including wet or dusty surfaces.
- Extreme-Temperature Flexibility – Remains flexible for easy installation in temperatures down to −40°F.
- High-Temperature Performance – Designed for dependable performance at temperatures up to 240°F.
- 180-Day UV Exposure Protection – Provides extended protection when the underlayment must remain exposed during construction.
- Excellent Dimensional Stability – Helps maintain a flat, consistent surface during installation and exposure.
- Broad Roofing Compatibility – Designed for use beneath asphalt shingles, metal roofing, tile, and other steep-slope roofing materials.
