There's a new problem on deck. Corrosion. And now there's a solution. Quick and easy.   Galvanized joist hanger attached to ACQ lumber, 7 months, wet conditions Corrosion can become visible in a very short period of time - weeks or months, rather than years. Nothing else seals around fasteners like Grace Vycor Deck Protector Grace Vycor Deck Protector The best solution to the corrosion problem. Corrosion can become visible in a very short period of time - weeks or months, rather than years. New and significantly more corrosive treated lumber replaced the historically used CCA-treated lumber effective January 1, 2004. New wood treatments are up to 4 times more corrosive to galvanized metal components compared to CCA lumber. It's the first product uniquely formulated and tested to help provide corrosion protection. It decreases the corrosion rates of galvanized connectors to the historic levels seen with CCA lumber. It provides additional protection to galvanized nails. 75' Roll x 4"   Qty: $13.99 NO SIGNS OF CORROSION Historically used CCA Lumber ADVANCED CORROSION New Pressure-Treated Lumber NO SIGNS OF CORROSION New Pressure-Treated with Grace Vycor Deck Protector   Good news for the environment is bad news for decks. New wood preservatives cause accelerated corrosion. *Galvanized metal after 1 month, continuous wet conditions. Red rust indicated advanced corrosion of galvanized coating. The Corrosion Mechanism When two dissimilar metals (the copper from the wood preservatives and the zinc from the galvanized metal) come into contact with one another, in the presence of moisture, an electric circuit is created and corrosion occurs. This same mechanism makes batteries work. Although CCA also contained copper, its other chemical components (chromate and arsenate) acted as corrosion inhibitors and slowed down corrosion. Therefore CCA lumber had been successfully used for years. How Does Grace Vycor Deck Protector Work? Grace Vycor Deck Protector is the first uniquely formulated solution to help reduce corrosion of galvanized metal connectors. It is installed between the connector and the pressure-treated lumber and acts as a barrier layer to break the electric circuit and thus helps reduce corrosion. Grace Vycor Deck Protector also helps reduce the corrosion rate of galvanized nails that attach the connectors to the lumber by separating them from the corrosion influence of the large connector (i.e. joist hanger). Features and Uses Grace Vycor Deck Protector is a unique solution designed to prevent the problems of joist rot and wood decay. By wrapping the top of the deck joist it creates an excellent barrier against water and moisture penetration in deck structures. The product's high performance polyethylene film is backed by an aggessive rubberized asphalt. A slip resistant coating facilitates foot traffic durring application. Grace Vycor Deck Protector can be used for all non-roofing flashing applications. Grace Vycor Deck Protector is a high performance, weather-resistive barrier. It is fast and easy to install, seals around the fasteners and prevents penetration of water into deck structures. The 6 in. and 12 in. measurement markings assist the ease of cutting to the desired length. How to install Grace Vycor Deck Protector Step 1: Apply Grace Vycor Deck Protector onto face of ledger board. Roll firmly into place. Step 2: Install joist hangers onto ledger board and rim joist. Step 3: Wrap ends of joists with Grace Vycor Deck Protector. Step 4: Install the wrapped joists into hangers and fasten accordingly.
