High-tensile, high tear strength RF100 Reinforcing Fabric combines with our silicone coatings for an extra layer of protection in critical areas. In new construction or building restorations, our Reinforcing Fabric can deliver long-term protection with a waterproof, flexible membrane.
Reinforcing Fabric spans static gaps up to ½ inch (13mm) to cover rough openings, penetrations, corners, flashing, transitions, changes in plane, and more. It is compatible with nearly any type of roofing substrate or air and water barrier surface, including metal, single-ply and modified bitumen roofing, as well as skylights, vents, scuppers, HVAC, and more.

Reinforcing Fabric for Use with Roof Coating and Air and
Water Resistive Barrier Systems
GE Silicones Technical Data Sheet
FOR INDUSTRIAL USE ONLY
Product Description
GE RF100 Reinforcing Fabric is a 100% polyester spun-laced textile for roofing and air and water resistive
barrier applications. It is a high-tensile, high-tear strength, dimensionally stable fabric with excellent
elongation for long-term performance. It is easy to apply with exceptional conformability, immediate
wet-out and easy positioning / repositioning in coatings or sealants.
Key Features and Typical Benefits
undefined Applicator Friendly--Easy to work with and install. Can easily be
positioned / repositioned in coating without damage occuring to
itself or the substrate.
undefined Conformability--Easily conforms to regular and irregular
transitions, including, but not limited to: rough openings,
penetrations, curbs, inside / outside corners, flashing, and more.
undefined Seamless Wet Out--Provides a monolithic and continuous
reinforced surface, which allows coating to
easily flow through and saturate.
undefined High Strength Reinforcement--Provides additional tensile and
tear strength to help meet project needs.
Potential Applications
undefined AWB--Spans static gaps up to 1/2" (13mm). Can treat: rough
openings, penetrations, inside / outside corners, flashing,
transitions, changes in plane, and more.
undefined Roofing--Can reinforce seams and curbs on roofing surfaces,
including: metal, single-ply and modified bitumen seams as well
as skylights, vents, scuppers, HVAC, and more.
Note: RF100 is not suitable for bridging dynamic gaps and
expansion joints. Consider GE UST2200 UltraSpan* silicone
sheeting for these purposes.
Packaging
undefined Roll Length--RF100 is available in 100 foot (30.5 m) rolls: and
standard widths are: 4" (102 mm), 6" (152 mm), and 12" (305 mm).
Additional widths may be available upon request.
Color
undefined Color--White.
