SA Base IV is an easy-to-apply, self-adhering, Styrene-Butadiene-Styrene (SBS), fiberglass-reinforced modified bitumen base sheet explicitly designed with the StressPly® IV torch-applied membrane roof system. This strong adhesive backing with a peel-off release film makes this base sheet quick and simple to install, helping to save time and money.

Method | Description |
---|---|
Self-Adhered | Before installing base sheets, prime approved roof board with Garland SA Primer. Starting at the low point of the roof, unroll SA Base IV in the desired position. Fold the membrane length-wise back onto itself, remove the split-back release film from the exposed side, and gradually push the membrane into place. Apply even pressure along the entire length of the membrane from the center to outer edges to avoid air pockets or wrinkles. Repeat for the other side. Firmly apply pressure with a suitable weighted roller to ensure 100% adhesion. The base sheets are installed in a shingle fashion throughout the prepared substrate. See SA Base Application Guide for detailed instructions. |

SA Base IV is the base layer in a multi-ply roof system. It provides a robust, watertight foundation for the multi-ply roof system, adding strength, flexibility, and protection for long-term performance.
SA Base IV requires less time and material during installation due to the self-adhering nature of the base sheet, significantly reducing labor costs throughout the application.
SA Base IV has a strong adhesive backing with peel-off release film that is very simple to install. Additionally, it saves time and labor costs on the job.
