Product Data Sheet
FLEX FB 60 TPO PLUS DATA SHEET
(FLEECE BACKED, REINFORCED THERMOPLASTIC POLYOLEFIN MEMBRANE)
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Flex FB 60 TPO Plus polyester reinforced thermoplastic polyolefin (TPO) fleece backed roofing
membranes are designed for use in new or re-roofing roofing systems. The Flex FB 60 TPO Plus
membranes are manufactured in 60 mil nominal thickness and in widths of 5’ and 10’x 100’ for
economical installations. Flex FB 60 TPO Plus membranes offer the proven weathering resistance of
rubber (derived from its high ethylene propylene rubber content) combined with the thermoplastic
properties of polypropylene. The combination results in a roofing membrane with hot air welded seams
and the durability of EPDM roofing membranes. The Flex FB 60 TPO Plus membranes polyester
reinforcement allows for structural movement with no splitting or cracking. The combination of the
reinforcing scrim, fleece backing and the TPO membrane provide Flex FB 60 TPO Plus membrane with
high breaking strength, tearing strength and puncture resistance. The specially formulated membrane
offers excellent resistance to solar UV and chemical exposure as well as remaining flexible in cold
temperatures
USE
Flex FB 60 TPO Plus membranes can be installed in new, re-roof (tear-off) and recover roof
constructions. In recover construction, if the existing roof is structurally acceptable, the Flex roof system
can save the cost of disposing of the original roof system. Flex FB 60 TPO Plus membranes can be
installed adhered directly over layers of approved roof board insulation or cover boards. The Flex FB 60
TPO Plus membrane may also be secured to the deck using an approved mechanically fastened system
utilizing methods that have been independently tested for wind uplift. The Flex FB 60 TPO Plus
membranes are true thermoplastics, therefore all seams are sealed by the hot air welding method creating
a seam as strong as the original membrane.
