System Criteria

Firestone RMA Mechanically Attached System offers an economical installation method on roofs where the roof deck will provide sufficient pull out resistance for the fastening system.

System Installation

The RMA System is developed around the Firestone QuickSeam RMA strip, a 254 mm wide strip of reinforced EPDM membrane incorporating two strips of self-adhesive QuickSeam Splice Tape laminated along each edge over the entire length of the strip. The RMA strips are laid out over the substrate and mechanically secured to the roof deck. The EPDM sheets are then adhered to the mechanically attached RMA strips using standard QuickSeam Splice Tape seaming techniques. All flashings around roof perimeters and penetrations are installed in accordance with Firestone specifications (pdf 756 kB).
