EPDM Tape Gaskets
Brian Beaulieu| Posted inGreen Products and Materialson
I’m looking for a recommendation from GBA readers on a single sided tape gasket (probably EPDM?) to be used in the airtight drywall approach. I like Conservation Technology’s drywall gasket but I figure an adhesived backed gasket would go up quicker than stapling. Does anyone have a suggestion of a high quality, durable air sealing tape gasket?
Thanks!

Brian,
A gasket that has been praised by builders I trust is the SureSeal gasket made by Denarco. SureSeal is an open-cell urethane-impregnated gasket. Denarco doesn't have a web site, but here is the contact information for the company:
Denarco Inc.

Thank you for the recommendation. FYI I did some researching and it seems that they do in fact have a website...

I'm going to give them a call and see if they can send me a sample. Thanks again!
Brian,
Thanks for providing the link to the Denarco website.
