Terra Seal is a self-adhering clay or concrete tile roof underlayment that withstands elevated rooftop temperatures and has exceptional nail pull-through resistance. It comprises high-grade polyester fabric laminated to high-temperature, self-sealing asphalt adhesive protected by a release liner removed during installation. Terra Seal can be used as the initial underlayment for clay or concrete tile roof applications and can also be used to line valleys, eaves, ridges, rakes, and hips.

Method | Description |

Self-Adhered | When installed properly over wood, OSB, metal or insulated roof decks (where allowed by code), Terra Seal will create an effective barrier against water intrusion. Before installation, ensure all surfaces are completely dry and free of dust, dirt, debris, oil and other contaminants; this can prevent the adhesive from bonding securely to the substrate. Priming is recommended on all substrates. |

Application Guidelines | Terra Seal Application Guidelines |
Terra Seal will lay flat and not wrinkle or buckle during installation while providing exceptional nail pull-through resistance. Terra Seal provides a suitable walking surface when roofing on sloped applications.
Terra Seal is formulated with high-temperature rubberized asphalt, which makes it stable in all warm weather climates. Terra Seal can withstand elevated rooftop temperatures without degrading or losing waterproofing capabilities.
Terra Seal’s strong polyester felt surface provides superior “bite” when installing tiles with foam adhesives. The polyester felt surface also offers excellent slip resistance and better grip during installation.
