Key Features and Benefits

Durable Aluminum Construction

Crafted from extruded aluminum, the InnoviFast™ HD Termination Bar offers exceptional strength while remaining lightweight. Its corrosion-resistant properties ensure long-term performance, even in harsh environmental conditions. citeturn0search0

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. citeturn0search1


Installation Guidelines

Proper installation of the InnoviFast™ HD Termination Bar is crucial for optimal performance. Below are the recommended steps:

  1. Surface Preparation: Ensure that the substrate is clean, dry, and free from contaminants such as dust, oil, or moisture. citeturn0search1
  2. Sealant Application: Apply a continuous bead of InnoviSeal™ Water Stop Mastic behind the top edge of the flashing to enhance the seal.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. 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.
  7. 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. citeturn0search0
