Tri-Rod® Backer Rod 3/4"

TRI-ROD Backer Rod 3/4" 1320'/case $213.00

is a highly insulating, closed-cell polyethylene foam backer rod specifically designed and manufactured for use in the round log home industry. The triangular shape of TRI-ROD enables it to fit snugly between the logs and provides a flat surface for the optimum chink joint design.

Advantages

• Triangular Shaped
  Fits into the log joint to create a flat surface for chinking.

• Bond Breaker
  Chinking releases from closed-cell surface allowing for its natural elasticity.

• Rounded Corners
  Increases chinking "footprint" area for maximum adhesion.

• Closed-Cell
  Resists moisture migration.

• Flame Retardant
  Withdraws from flame rather than supporting combustion.

• Energy Efficient
  TRI-ROD has an R 4 per inch rating giving it excellent thermal efficiency.

• No Outgassing
  Does not outgas or cause blistering.

• Non-Toxic
  Is odorless and safe for exterior and interior use. Has excellent flame and smoke ratings per ASTM-E-84

• Ease of Application
  Is easily installed between logs after spraying back side with spray adhesive. It is not necessary to hold TRI-ROD in place with nails, staples, etc.

• Flexible
  Provides firm but flexible chinking surface; will not distort or result in bulging, uneven chinking surface.

• Testing
  Meets or exceeds ASTM standards for polyethylene foam insulation. See Properties & Performance Comparison of Backing Materials.
