DESCRIPTION

BRONCO® CEMSHIELD SBS membranes are factory fabricated waterproof sheets of

predetermined thickness. These sheets are modified with SBS a specially formulated bituminous
BRONCO® CEMSHIELD SBS
compound, stabilizers and inert fillers, reinforced with a robust, non-woven polyester reinforcement.
To improve cold weather flexibility BRONCO® CEMSHIELD SBS is produced by two-sided
installation of high-quality polymer bitumen binder.

USES
BRONCO® CEMSHIELD SBS membranes are ideal for general use in single / multi-layer systems.
They are used on low slope concrete roofs, sub grade structures, bridgeworks and any concrete or
cementitious flat surface that needs waterproofing.

METHOD OF APPLICATION
Surface Preparation

The surface to be waterproofed must be smooth, clean and should be free of depressions and loose
aggregate. Any sharp protrusions such as nails, tying wire, etc. should be removed. Cracked
concrete should be repaired and any depressions must be filled with mortar. External sharp edges
must be chamfered. It is important that the surface is free of oils, grease and dust. Any moisture or
condensation must be dried before commencing preparation works. Slabs must be totally dry as
moisture left may be trapped inside.

Priming

The cleaned concrete surface must be coated with BRONCO® CEMPRIMER – (heavy bodied
bitumen sealer cum primer) which is compatible with the membrane. The primer must be spread
evenly and allowed to dry completely. Only the area to be waterproofed on a given day should be
coated with primer.

Application

BRONCO® CEMSHIELD SBS membranes are fixed by torch welding, known as Torch-on method.
The rolls are spread over the area, to which they are to be fixed. The rolls are laid so that the next
overlaps the first by at least 10 cm along the side-lap. The membrane is then laid out changing the
given orientation. They are then rolled once again while heating the underside sufficiently to cause
surface melting. End laps should be minimum 15 cm. Avoid excessive and uneven application of
heat. The laps should be heated from the top to produce a thin head of molten bitumen at the seam,
which should then be smoothened and cut with a trowel ensuring a properly welded joint.

SHELF LIFE & STORAGE

24 months from the date of manufacturing when stored in dry condition at a temperature range from
+5⁰C to 40⁰C and away from direct sun light. All rolls must be kept vertically stacked.
