August, 2010 - Carlisle Residential, a division of Carlisle Construction Materials, has added a split-release liner to its Water and Ice Protection (WIP) 300HT self-adhering roofing underlayment, making the product even easier to handle and install and significantly reducing the time required for labor.

In addition to superior performance and durability, WIP 300HT will now provide even more cost and labor savings to contractors, architects and building owners. The new split-release liner is now available, so installers can immediately enjoy the faster installation and laborsaving benefits of the enhanced product.

WIP 300HT is a high-tensile-strength rubberized asphalt underlayment specifically designed to withstand temperatures up to 250°F (121°C). Ideal for use under metal including copper and zinc, WIP 300HT can also be used under synthetic tiles and asphalt shingles. The strong, skid-resistant membrane is available in either black or white, both of which provide protection from water penetration caused by wind-driven rain and ice dams. It offers superior protection and durability, sealing around roofing nails, staples and screws, which can lengthen the life of the building's roof.
