Features & Benefits

Why specify LicaBand BTS 100 waterproofing tape?

Fast, Simple Application

This waterproofing tape is self-adhesive — simply remove the protective film and press to bond. No primer, no special accessories, no pre-formed corners or edges required. Corners are handled by cutting and folding the tape itself.

🔧

High Elasticity Across Full Width

LicaBand BTS 100 waterproofing tape delivers high elasticity across its entire 100mm width — accommodating movement and slight stresses at joints and connections without losing adhesion or integrity.

🧱

Compatible with All Licata Waterproofing Systems

This waterproofing tape is specifically designed for use with Licalastic 150 PU, Hydro Monoelasto 100 and the full Licata waterproofing range — can be applied over the first dried coat of any Licata liquid waterproofing membrane.

🧂

Alkaline Resistant

Excellent alkaline resistance makes this waterproofing tape suitable for use in cementitious environments — it maintains its performance over time even in contact with cement-based waterproofing products and substrates.

💧

Waterproof

Resists hydrostatic pressure of ≥0.2 bar — providing a reliable waterproof seal at joints and connections when used as part of a complete Licata waterproofing system.

🔗

Excellent Adhesion to All Substrates

The butyl rubber adhesive backing of this waterproofing tape bonds to virtually all construction substrates — achieving peel adhesion of ≥13 N/20mm on neutral PVC in standard testing conditions.

Product Description

LicaBand BTS 100 — Self-Adhesive Waterproofing Tape

LicaBand BTS 100 is Licata's self-adhesive elastic waterproofing tape — manufactured from butyl rubber with an unwoven polypropylene fabric facing for interior and exterior use. It is an integral part of Licata's waterproofing system, used to seal and reinforce the critical detail areas that liquid membranes alone cannot fully protect.

This waterproofing tape delivers high elasticity across its full width combined with outstanding adhesion and alkaline resistance. It requires no special accessories — corners are formed by simply cutting and folding the tape, and joints are made by overlapping the ends by at least 4cm. It can be painted over immediately after application, significantly reducing waiting times on site.

LicaBand BTS 100 waterproofing tape can be applied directly onto a prepared dry substrate, or onto the first coat of a fully dried Licata liquid waterproofing membrane. Do not leave this waterproofing tape exposed to UV rays long-term — it should be overcoated with the liquid waterproofing membrane.

Substrate Preparation

Preparing for waterproofing tape application

1
Clean and dry the substrate: The surface must be dry and free of dust, detergents, oils, greases, waxes, gypsum and salt. Remove all flaking or loose parts mechanically.
2
No free water: The substrate must have no free standing or stagnating water — remove or dry completely before applying the waterproofing tape.
3
Damp substrates: On surfaces with damp or penetrating damp, apply EpoxyCem TX primer for damp substrates before applying the waterproofing tape. Contact our technical team for the correct type and application method.
4
Compatibility check: Before full application, check the compatibility of this waterproofing tape with the specific surface in terms of adhesion and chemical compatibility.
Application

Applying the waterproofing tape

1
Peel and apply: Remove half the protective film and bond the waterproofing tape to the prepared substrate. Then remove the remaining film and press firmly along the full length to ensure adhesion.
2
Corners: No pre-formed corners needed — cut the waterproofing tape in half, fold onto itself and shape as required. The self-adhesive butyl rubber backing holds the formed shape.
3
Joining lengths: Overlap the ends of adjacent lengths by at least 4cm to form a continuous waterproof seal.
4
Overcoating: Apply the Licata liquid waterproofing membrane over the tape immediately after application — no waiting time required. Do not leave the waterproofing tape exposed to UV rays long-term.
Alternative method: LicaBand BTS 100 waterproofing tape can also be applied onto the first coat of a fully dried Licata liquid waterproofing membrane — then overcoated with the second membrane coat.
