McGuire FlexGuard T-Joint Patch

McGuire FlexGuard T-Joint Patch

McGuire’s FlexGuard T-Joint Patches are used to seal step-offs at splice intersections. T-Joint Patches are mandatory on all 60- and 80-mil TPO systems and on 45-mil systems where step-offs have not been properly sealed. FlexGuard TPO T-Joint Patches consist of 60-mil non-reinforced TPO formed into a perfect 4.5″-diameter circle and packaged 100 pieces per carton.

  • Each T-Joint Patch is a perfect 4.5” diameter premolded circle.
  • Provides substantial labor savings compared to field fabricating.
  • Seals channels at splice intersections created by seam step-offs.
  • More consistent appearance and installation compared to field fabricated patches.
  1. Clean the surface to be welded with Weathered Membrane Cleaner.
  2. Use a lower temperature setting on the hand heat welder than that used for welding reinforced TPO membrane. (Typically, a setting of “6” on a scale of “10” is appropriate for welding TPO T-Joint Patches.)
  3. Center the T-Joint Patch over the splice intersection, begin welding at the center point and work towards the outside. Use the edge of the roller to crease the T-Joint patch into membrane step-offs to achieve a proper seal.
  4. Using a probe, check all splices for voids and cold welds only once the T-Joint Cover has completely cooled. Make any needed repairs.
