ZIP System® sheathing and tape is a unique structural roof and wall system with a built-in water-resistive barrier (WRB) and continuous air barrier to keep out water and air, while allowing panels to properly dry. By replacing the need for housewrap, it streamlines the weatherization process - simply hang panels and applying panel seam tape in one trip around the structure.

ZIP System sheathing meets code requirements as a structural panel, water-resistive barrier and air barrier, according to documented testing by the International Code Council Evaluation Services. Unlike traditional housewrap, ZIP System sheathing and tape forms a continuous rigid air barrier for a tight enclosure that protects against air leakage and contributes to energy efficiency. Plus, with an integrated weather barrier it reduces risk of delays for barrier repairs. 

Features

• High-performance engineered wood structural sheathing delivers Structural 1 shear strength and exterior durability.
• Built-in water-resistive barrier eliminates the hassles of housewrap or felt.
• Continuous, rigid air barrier decreases unwanted air leakage for greater energy efficiency.
• Specially-designed acrylic seam sealing tape completes the system backed by a 180-Day Exposure Guarantee
