	Mortar Deflection Products	Mortar Break®	click to enlarge The complete Mortar Break® system is a popular cost competitive way to ensure proper cavity wall drainage. The Mortar Break® system has been tested and exceeds industry standards. Mortar Break® is now made from 40% recycled materials and qualifies for L.E.E.D. rating system credits. Mortar Break® is a mortar deflection device used in conjunction with standard masonry cavity walls with a 1" to 1-3/4" wide cavity.
		Mortar Break II®	click to enlarge Mortar Break II® is our newest improved mortar deflection device. Mortar Break II® is to be used in conjunction with standard 2" wide cavity wall construction. Mortar Break II® is a 1.5" thick, high density, polypropylene geometric design. The slightly narrower profile of Mortar Break II® allows for a better fit in a 2" cavity and avoids any possibility of mortar bridging the cavity. It is this bridging of mortar, although not continuous, that would allow moisture to travel into the interior wythe of a typical cavity wall. Mortar Break II® is now made from 40% recycled materials and qualifies for L.E.E.D. rating system credits.
		Mortar Catch®	For use at all flashing locations where wide cavity construction is required. The polymer core geomatrix design, when shaped in a "U" configuration on the jobsite, fills the cavity and allows moisture to weep at both inner wall surfaces. Mortar Catch® used with quality flashing, weep holes and good mortar applying techniques will ensure the performance of a properly designed masonry wall.
	Rainscreen Products	Mortairvent®	click to enlarge Mortairvent® is a two-ply mortar deflection and ventilation system that has been specifically designed for use with manufactured stone, stucco, EIFS and brick. By installing the Mortairvent® two-ply system, a ventilation cavity is created between the vapor barrier and exterior wall. The blue polymer core mesh creates the airspace, while the filter fabric blocks mortar droppings from seeping into this newly formed cavity, while still allowing moisture to pass through. This combination of drainage and ventilation eliminates the threat of toxic mold.
	Air Barrier Products	Vape-R-Seal	click to enlarge Advanced Vape-R-Seal is a 40 mil thick self-adhesive rubberized asphalt membrane used to provide a complete barrier to moisture or air when adhered to an above ground substrate.

	Deck Flashing Products	Cop-R-Shield	Advanced Building Products is proud to introduce Cop-R-Shield flashing for residential wood frame construction. With a track record of over 30 years in the residential and commercial industry, Cop-R-Shield has worked extremely well as a termite shield and thru-wall flashing on wood framed construction. New preservatives such as Alkaline Copper Quaternary (ACQ) used on pressure treated lumber create a compatibility concern between aluminum flashing and treated lumber. Certain dissimilar metals, such as copper and aluminum, cause corrosion when in contact with each other. Cop-R-Shield consists of a full sheet of copper, available in weights of 2 oz. and 3 oz. per square foot with rolls either 20' or 60' long.
		Cop-R-Shield PC	This high quality copper laminated flashing provides multiple benefits when working with treated lumber. The copper side of the flashing is compatible with the framing, while the UV protected poly provides a barrier between the metal fasteners and the treated lumber. The system provides a simple solution to solving incompatibility issues when fastening treated lumber. Note: Cop-R-Shield PC is adhered using a hot melt glue. Cop-R-Shield PC consists of a full sheet of copper, available in weights of 2 oz. and 3 oz. per square foot with rolls either 20' or 60' long.
		Dual Flash & Ledger Flash	Dual-Flash is a flexible PVC membrane installed over the ledger board, protecting the joist hangers from contact with treated lumber. Dual-Flash is the first "reversible" deck flashing. White on one side and sandstone on the other gives homeowners the flexibility of two color choices in one product. Ledger-Flash is a rigid, pre-formed PVC sheet with pre-punched holes for easier installation. Available in two colors, white or sandstone. Please specify color when ordering. Both Ledger-Flash and Dual-Flash should be fastened to the exterior sheathing using 304 stainless steel or hot-dipped galvanized fasteners.
