Determining Bead Spacing:

1. Apply Duro-Grip per the "Directions for Use" section.

2. For any project located in an area with the design

wind speed greater than 120 mph or a roof deck

height greater than 100 feet, the Duro-Last
Engineering Services Department must determine

the bead spacing pattern to be used. Otherwise, use
the guidelines below.

3. The spacing between beads of Duro-Grip is less in

the perimeter area of the roof than in the main field
area to compensate for higher wind uplift pressures.

4. The width of the perimeter area is defined as the

lesser of either 40% of the building eave height or

10% of the lesser roof plan dimension, but in no case

less than 6 feet. The remainder of the roof is the field

area.
a. Perimeter area: apply beads 6 inches on center.

b. Field area: apply beads 12 inches on center.

5. Use the bead spacing above for all layers to be

applied with Duro-Grip.

6. Refer to Table 2 for the estimated coverage per each

A/B Tank Kit based on bead spacing.

Limitations:

1. Maximum size of insulation board to be attached with

Duro-Grip is 4 x 4 foot (1.2 x 1.2 m).

2. Maximum size of cover board to be attached with

Duro-Grip is 4 x 8 foot (1.2 x 2.4 m)

3. The product temperature must be between 70 °F and

90 °F (21 - 32 °C) when applied. This ensures that
the proper mixing ratio is maintained during
installation and will give the best yield per tank kit.

When the product temperature falls outside of this

range the tanks may take several hours to adjust to

an acceptable temperature. Therefore, keeping the
tanks in a warm environment overnight during cold

weather months and keeping the tanks from getting
to hot in the summer will avoid delays during

installation.

4. The substrate temperature that the product is applied

to must be at least 40 °F (5 °C) and rising.

5. Do not use during inclement weather.

6. Concrete and gypsum decks must be cured before

applying Duro-Grip.

7. Do not use on wet surfaces. Do not install

Duro-Grip on a wet surface. Take whatever
precautions are necessary to ensure that the surface
is dry during the application and curing of the
Duro-Grip.

8. Do not use on any roof deck that shows signs of

deterioration or loss of integrity.

9. Do not use on excessively dirty or grease laden

surfaces.

10. Do not use after expiration date.

Storage and Handling:

1. The "A" and "B" containers should be stored between

45 and 95 °F (7 - 35 °C). The shelf life at these
temperatures is 18 months from the date of

production.

2. Follow instructions on the "A" and "B" boxes for

overnight and longer term storage.
