RubberGard EPDM is a synthetic-rubber EPDM roofing membrane offered for adhered, ballasted and mechanically attached systems. This record identifies the product as part of the Elevate single-ply roof membranes range for low-slope commercial roofing.

The linked manufacturer technical document is matched to this product by name. Use it to confirm the available configuration, physical properties, tested standards and installation limits before preparing a submittal or selecting adjoining roof-system components.

For an existing installation, confirm the package label, product marking, dimensions, attachment method and document revision. Similar products in the same family can have different thicknesses, profiles, reinforcements, fastening requirements or approved assemblies and should not be treated as interchangeable.

Design and specification coordination

Use these checks to connect the product record to a complete, project-specific assembly. The manufacturer documents and approved construction documents govern where they provide more specific requirements.

• Confirm membrane type, nominal thickness, reinforcement or fleece construction, color and roll dimensions.
• Coordinate the roof deck, vapor control, insulation, cover board and attachment method as one tested roof assembly.
• Verify adhesive or fastener compatibility, seam-welding requirements, perimeter enhancement and details at penetrations and edges.
• Check wind-uplift, fire and code listings for the complete assembly rather than relying on membrane properties alone.
• For recover work, document the existing roof, moisture survey, substrate preparation and separation-layer requirements.

Submittal and field verification

A useful product record should allow a reviewer to trace what was specified, approved, delivered and installed. Include the following items when this product is proposed or verified.

• Use the exact product name and manufacturer identifier on the submittal; do not substitute a similar family name.
• Attach the current product data sheet and the applicable installation, safety, approval and warranty documents.
• Record selected options such as size, thickness, profile, color, finish, reinforcement and attachment method.
• Identify the tested or approved assembly and list each adjoining component needed to reproduce it.
• At delivery, compare labels and revision dates with the approved record and archive superseded files instead of overwriting them.

Selection, installation and existing-roof checks

Confirm the exact product name, generation and configuration before using any value on this page. Check the roof substrate, slope, attachment or adhesive, reinforcement, edge and penetration details, accessories, tested assembly and local approval that apply to the project. For an existing roof, compare labels, package records, original submittals and physical dimensions; appearance alone is not enough to identify a product.
