Tyvek (pronounced /taɪˈvɛk/) is a brand of flashspun high-density polyethylene fibers, a synthetic material; the name is a registered trademark of DuPont. The material is very strong; it is difficult to tear but can easily be cut with scissors or any other sharp object. Water vapor can pass through Tyvek (highly breathable), but not liquid water, so the material lends itself to a variety of applications: medical packaging, envelopes, car covers, air and water intrusion barriers (housewrap) under house siding, labels, wristbands, mycology, and graphics. Tyvek is sometimes erroneously referred to as "Tyvex." From Wikipedia under the

From Google News Search: "Tyvek" How much does DuPont Tyvek cost or is there any other simular bands that are cheaper and just as good? Q. How much does DuPont Tyvek cost or is there any other simular bands that are cheaper and just as good? Asked by kyle1980s - Tue Jul 11 15:12:41 2006 - - 5 Answers - 0 Comments A. I have used Tyvek and other brands. It's my opinion that Tyvek is good for what it is designed for - an air barrier, but that's all. It's over-rated and over-priced. It is NOT an water barrier, so for use under siding in an area that gets much rain (or wind-driven rain) I still use old-fashioned asphalt felt (tar paper). It's cheap, easy to install and works well. If you pay attention to detail and overlap it generously, you will get as good of a barrier as Tyvek plus it will shed any water that gets driven under the siding. Plus, it won't blind you when working around it on a sunny day. Answered by DoItRite - Tue Jul 11 16:55:17 2006 Dupont Tyvek Thermawrap? Q.

Q. I own a split-foyer style home, about 1900 sq ft with a two-car garage. It has twelve windows and siding on the top floor. I'd like to install new triple-paned windows and new siding with Tyvek wrap underneath. Companies and independent contractors have given me widely varying estimates for the work. Does anyone have a general idea of the cost? I know materials affect the cost but just assume I'm using mid-range products. Thanks for your help. I plan on buying vinyl windows and vinyl siding. I'm replacing wood-framed single-pane windows and aluminum siding. Asked by Marilee - Wed Oct 18 21:05:27 2006 - - 5 Answers - 0 Comments A. New windows run in the range of $80 (really cheap self installed) up to about $200, look for a price around $125- $175 each installed. Vinyl siding is going to depend on the quality as well. Thinner is cheapest, thicker is more. It is sold by the square (100 square feet) and by the mil (thickness.) You should be looking at 40 or 60 mil siding as a minimum. The cost here is about $70 - $100 per square depending on style and thickness. As for the triple pane glass it is really a waste of money, 1" double pane is usually best. As to the tyvek you only need it if you have nothing for siding already IE bare walls (shakes, clapboards, T - 111 etc. don't need it) \ The cost to install siding will vary by how much work needs to be done… [cont.] Answered by my_iq_135 - Wed Oct 18 21:37:16 2006 From Yahoo Answer Search: "Tyvek" |
