Did you know that Atlas has a specific list of approved WRB tapes?

Atlas Wall CI Board family of sheathing products (EnergyShield®, EnergyShield® CGF (formerly Rboard®), EnergyShield® Pro, and EnergyShield® CGF Pro ) do not require taping of seams. However, taping of seams, penetrations, and repairing the damaged facer is required when relying on the system to act as a water resistive barrier (WRB).

Where the Atlas EnergyShield family of products are used within a WRB system, all penetrations and flashings details must be observed as described in our ICC-ES ESR-1375 Report.

ICC-ES ESR-1375 APPROVED TAPES FOR ATLAS WRB:

  • VENTURE TAPE 1599B
  • VENTURE TAPE 1519 CW
  • 3M ALL WEATHER FLASHING TAPE 8067
  • ZIP SYSTEM FLEXIBLE FLASHING TAPE
