RUBBERALL EPDM Self-Sticking Cover Strip, 6 in. x 100 ft. or 5 in. x 25 ft., Black
The RUBBERALL EPDM Cover Strip is a cured EPDM membrane laminated to butyl tape on release paper, used as a self-sticking cover strip over protrusions such as pipes and curb openings.

Expert Verdict — Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk
Self-sticking cover strips like this are the fastest, safest way to detail pipes and curbs on EPDM roofs — no solvent fumes or messy adhesive open time. Roll the strip firmly after peeling the release paper to drive out air and ensure full butyl contact, and keep overlaps per the membrane manufacturer's detail drawings. Use the wider 6 in. roll for curbs and larger penetrations and the 5 in. roll for small pipe boots and spot details.
Follow the manufacturer's surface preparation and temperature requirements — butyl tape will not bond properly to dirty, wet or cold surfaces.
Order the RUBBERALL EPDM Cover Strip for fast, solvent-free flashing of pipes and curb details.
