FlexPly™6

Description
FlexPly™6 is a premium-performing fiberglass Type VI roofing felt. Its revolutionary flexible design provides:
• maximum strength and stability
• improved conformance to underlying substrates
• ease of installation compared to typical Type VI felts
• long-term performance for peace of mind

Uses
FlexPIy6 should be specified as a ply felt in the construction of all premium quality built-up roofs, including:

Advantages
• Revolutionary flexible design—rolls out easier and lays flatter, minimizing the danger of air pockets and trapped moisture during installation
