Lip-and-Ball Design
The unique lip-and-ball configuration enhances the bar’s structural integrity, providing a secure fit against the flashing material. This design also creates a reservoir for sealant application, ensuring a watertight seal at termination points.
Pre-Punched for Easy Installation
Pre-punched holes spaced at 12 inches (304.8 mm) on center facilitate quick and consistent installation. This feature ensures uniform compression along the flashing, reducing the risk of leaks. citeturn0search1
Installation Guidelines
Proper installation of the InnoviFast™ HD Termination Bar is crucial for optimal performance. Below are the recommended steps:
- Surface Preparation: Ensure that the substrate is clean, dry, and free from contaminants such as dust, oil, or moisture. citeturn0search1
- Sealant Application: Apply a continuous bead of InnoviSeal™ Water Stop Mastic behind the top edge of the flashing to enhance the seal.
- Bar Placement: Position the flat side of the termination bar against the flashing, aligning it so that the pre-punched holes are ready for fastening.
- Fastening: Secure the bar using appropriate IKO fasteners through the pre-punched holes, maintaining a maximum spacing of 12 inches (304.8 mm) on center.
- Sealant Reservoir: The lip-and-ball design forms a channel at the top edge, which should be filled with InnoviSeal™ Universal Sealer to ensure a watertight termination.
- Vertical Installations: For vertical applications, such as parapet walls, install the termination bar vertically where base flashings end, ensuring a continuous bead of sealant around all sides.
- Finishing Touches: Trim any excess flashing material above the bottom of the sealant reservoir channel and clean up any debris resulting from installation.
Precautions:
- Do not use the termination bar as a batten strip.
- Avoid installing on substrates where the seal may be compromised, such as porous surfaces or areas with mortar joints.
- Ensure that the termination bar is installed directly onto hard, smooth surfaces for optimal sealing.
Applications
The InnoviFast™ HD Termination Bar is specifically designed for use with IKO’s Innovi™ TPO single-ply roofing systems. It is ideal for securing flashing terminations at parapet walls, roof penetrations, and other critical areas where the membrane requires mechanical termination.
Warranty and Compliance
When installed as part of an IKO Innovi™ TPO roofing system, the InnoviFast™ HD Termination Bar can contribute to qualifying for IKO’s Diamond Shield Limited Warranty, offering added assurance of the system’s performance and durability. citeturn0search0
