Moisture Control Flashing Systems Overview

To provide maximum water protection in areas with a significant weather exposure, a High Performance Flashing System can be specified. This method uses Moistop® PF™ or neXT™ in combination with Moistop E-Z Seal® or FortiFlash™ - integrated with a Jumbo Tex® weather-resistive barrier, to provide a complete weatherization system for walls. Designed by the use of building science and perfected in the field, the High Performance Flashing System represents the industry's only complete, single-source flashing system. It provides superior protection against moisture intrusion with all types of windows, including wood, vinyl and aluminum casings. Comprised of 100% compatible materials, it takes the guesswork out of selecting flashing and sealing materials that work together, and delivers performance you can count on.

Building professionals will tell you that Fortifiber's flashing systems are the industry's most proven, time-tested flashing components. The FortiShield™ 10-Year Product Warranty makes them the logical choice any time long-term reliability is important.

Moisture Control Flashing Systems

Moistop E-Z Seal®
Moistop E-Z Seal provides cost-effective, flexible flashing designed to make installations quick and easy. Manufactured from a strong fiberglass-reinforced membrane, Moistop E-Z Seal is coated on both sides with a water-resistant polyethylene and backed by a 3 inch, self-adhesive band, so it lies flat to resist cracking and curling. An adhesive strip delivers an incredibly strong bond, ensuring reliable integration of the windows and doors with a weather-resistive barrier.

FortiFlash®
FortiFlash delivers lasting protection against water intrusion in the most demanding environmental conditions. It is ideally suited for windows, doors, flashing non-roofing horizontal conditions -- as well as pot shelves, parapets, sill pans and recessed windows. It's the perfect choice for sealing around all common through-wall penetrations. Reinforced by an incredibly strong cross-laminated, high-density polyethylene film, FortiFlash can be installed around protrusions and into the tightest corners without delaminating or tearing. Its self-sealing rubberized asphalt core stays in place in the most punishing weather conditions.

Moistop® PF™
Moistop PF is a mechanically-attached flashing product that offers a unique balance between durability and cost-effectiveness. The product resists extreme jobsite abuse - such as heavy wind and rain. Manufactured from a heavy-duty polypropylene fabric coated on two sides with UV- resistant polypropylene, the product resists cracking and curling before and after installation.
