Subsill Flashing System

Designed and manufactured in New Zealand, the BRANZ appraised Baritec system provides a door and window flashing solution that is solid, durable and can be installed under almost any weather conditions. Baritec is easy to install, with interlocking components requiring no adhesion to the substrate, significantly reducing the possibility of door or window weathertightness failure or degradation of substrate surface. Although more expensive to buy than traditional flashing tape options, Baritec pays for itself by increasing the productivity of the build - reducing delays, labour costs and providing an easy, quality result first time.

Formed from two main components - an extruded length profile and an injection molded corner soaker, the Baritec system is specifically designed to accommodate flexible wrap or any flat sheet RAB membrane. It provides a completely flat surface around the perimeter, allowing a precise window installation and airseal.

The Baritec AL4570 silicone is specially formulated for use with ASA plastic, but is also suitable for bonding to wood, fibre cement and other porous surfaces. The silicone is E2 / AS1 compliant.
