What is Thermoplastic Overbanding Tape?

How to apply Instaband Eco Thermoplastic Overbanding Tape

1. Preheat the surface making sure it is completely free from moisture.
2. Remove Instaband ECO from its protective wrapping and roll out on to the road surface, beaded side up.
3. Once in place, heat the Instaband ECO with a propane torch. The heat should be applied from a distance of approximately 200-400mm (8”-16”) from the material. Heat in a slow even sweeping motion making sure you do not spot-heat any area, as this may scorch the material causing discolouration.
4. Instaband ECO® must be heated until the material starts to bubble and melt.
5. Depending on air temperature, Instaband ECO will cool down and harden within 5-10 minutes of installation. When this has occurred, check for correct installation by trying to lift parts of the material at the edges using a knife or a chisel. If this can be lifted, simply reapply heat until adequate bonding has occurred.
