Maxi 132 Breather Membrane Roofing Felt from Easy-Trim
Excellent tensile strength and nail tear resistance!
Heavier and more durable 132gsm roof underlay with excellent tensile strength and nail tear resistance. Easy-Trim’s professional Maxi Breather Membrane is suitable for both fully supported and unsupported installations in tiled or slate pitch roofs.
The Maxi 132 is a 3-layer micro porous breather membrane, which features a microporous film that is thermally bonded between two spun-bonded polypropylene layers. Allows the roof to breathe, so eliminates condensation, whilst providing secondary protection against rainwater ingress. Easy-Trim breather membranes improve energy efficiency and minimise the wind uplift that can loosen slates and tiles.
Features & Benefits
