Description
What You’re Getting
This is a brand-new, unused Huber ZIP System Stretch Tape 6″ × 75 ft roll. The only thing missing is the original retail carton — the tape itself has never been opened or applied. Same product, same specs, same warranty eligibility.
You save $45 (31%) off our regular $145 price. This is the real deal — one roll at this price while it lasts.
Why ZIP Stretch Tape?
Regular flashing tape doesn’t stretch. When you hit a sill pan corner, a window curve, or a pipe penetration, you’re cutting, folding, and overlapping — creating potential leak points at every joint. ZIP Stretch Tape eliminates that problem: it stretches in all directions to conform around complex shapes in one continuous piece. One piece = zero lap joints = zero leak paths.
If you’re flashing sill pans on a ZIP System wall, this is the tape Huber designed for it.
Important: ZIP System Tape Is Not Interchangeable with DuPont
ZIP System Stretch Tape uses an acrylic adhesive engineered specifically for Huber ZIP sheathing panels. Using a different tape on ZIP sheathing voids the 30-year system warranty. Conversely, this tape is designed for ZIP sheathing — don’t use it on plywood or OSB where a butyl tape like DuPont is the right choice.

Installation Notes
J-roller is mandatory. ZIP Stretch Tape uses acrylic adhesive that requires firm pressure to activate the bond. Roll every inch after application.
For sill pans: start at the center of the sill, stretch outward to each corner, and fold up the jambs in one piece. No cuts needed — the stretch does the work.
Do not use as a substitute for ice & water barrier on roofs.
Coverage — How Far Does One Roll Go?
One 6″ × 75 ft roll covers approximately 13 window sill pans (figured at ~5.5 ft per sill with stretch). On a typical house with 15-20 windows, one roll handles most of the sills — you may need a second roll for the larger openings and doors.
Only one roll at this price. Call (832) 463-7946 to confirm availability before ordering.

- 6″ × 75′ — the same roll as this one, in a factory carton
- 6″ × 20′ — the small-job length for a few openings
- 10″ × 20′ — wide pan, short roll: door thresholds and deep sills
- 10″ × 75′ — the widest, for thick multifamily assemblies
