WATERALLEY 5/16" (7 mm) RAINSCREEN DRAINAGE MAT

WaterAlley 5/16" is a nominal 7mm thick drainage product consisting of a polymer core of fused entangled filaments bonded to a moisture resistant filter fabric on the outer surface. WaterAlley 516 is designed for use with manufactured and natural stone, traditional and one coat stucco, EIFS, fiber-cement, wood based sidings, masonry, metal and other wall cladding materials. This rainscreen product provides an uninterrupted drainage path & ventilation for incidental moisture between exterior finish materials and wall sheathing. Applications for roofing and below grade drainage.

WaterAlley 516 has a unique filter fabric bonded to the outer surface that resists liquid water penetration, providing greater substrate protection than competitive rainscreen mats.
