In this EPDM rubber roofing video tutorial, you’ll learn how to correctly create a watertight roof deck surface around a pipe penetration using an EPDM pipe seal.
Using the right tools, materials, and techniques, pipes can penetrate roof decks with a fully watertight surrounding seal. Follow the steps in our video to succeed with this EPDM roof detail.

Tools required:
• Craft knife
• Screwdriver
• Scribe
• Paint brush
• Silicone roller
• Penny roller
Materials required:
• EPDM Pipe Seal
• EPDM Primer
Things to be aware of:
• The prepared roof surface must be clean, dry, and free from dust and contaminants (bitumen, oil, etc).
• Always wait for FlexiProof EPDM Primer to become touch dry and still tacky before pressing the EPDM pipe flange onto the roof deck membrane. This avoids gas bubbles forming underneath the pipe seal and helps to create a smooth and smart finish every time.
