GIB RocTape® can be installed using hand tools or mechanical tools and is approved for use in all GIB® Systems. Jointing tapes are an important component in a GIB® System, providing critical strength between plasterboard sheets to aid in resisting structural movement and therefore it is important to select the most appropriate jointing tape for the application.
GIB RocTape® is a matt fibreglass tape that uses random fibre placement to achieve superior mechanical strength for flat joint applications. GIB® jointing compounds can permeate through the GIB RocTape® matt, creating a very strong joint through reinforcing the GIB® jointing compound. This means less cracking and cosmetic defects, resulting in fewer callbacks, saving time and money.
GIB RocTape® is suitable for flat plasterboard joints. For corner joints use GIB® Levelline®, GIB® Goldline™, GIB® UltraFlex®, or GIB® Paper joint tape.
Features:
- Makes the joint mechanically strong
- Faster drying times
- No entrapped air bubbles under the tape
- No swelling or shrinkage due to water absorption
- Eliminates inadequate compound under the joint tape, reducing tape adhesion failure
- Coloured yellow for easy identification
