Description
e2XP Sheathing is a moisture
and mold resistant gypsum panel designed for attachment
to the outside of sidewall and soffit framing as a water
resistant underlayment for various exterior materials.
e2XP Sheathing is manufactured with
an enhanced moisture and mold resistant core and facer.
The facer is composed of a coated fiberglass mat which
provides superior weather resistance capabilities. It is
produced in 1/2" and 5/8" thicknesses, 4' wide in 8', 9'
and 10' lengths. e2XP Sheathing
is lightweight, scores and cuts easily, and is specially coated
on the front, back and sides for easy handling.
Applications
e2XP Sheathing can be used in
both wood and metal stud
construction to provide fire
resistance, weather protection
and to add to structural strength.
e2XP Sheathing can be used as
a substrate for various air and
water resistive barriers including
building wraps, self-adhesive
membranes and liquid applied
coatings. It can be used as a
component in curtainwall or
Exterior Insulated Finish Systems
(EIFS), and under various
exterior finishes such as metal,
vinyl, wood or fiber-cement
siding; brick/stone veneer, or
conventional stucco. The 5/8"
e2XP Fire-Shield® Type X
gypsum panel can be utilized
for exterior fire-rated wall and
soffit assemblies.
Features & Benefits
- Manufactured to meet ASTM C 1177 (“Standard Specification for Glass Mat Gypsum Substrate for Use as Sheathing”).
- Will withstand up to 12 months of exposure to typical weather conditions, subject to terms, conditions and exclusions of National Gypsum’s Limited Warranties. (View e2XP Sheathing Warranty for terms, conditions and limitations.)
- Treated fiberglass face, back and gypsum core provides extra protection against mold growth per ASTM D3273.*
- Superior water resistance which does not impede vapor transmission.
- Dimensionally stable under changes in temperature and relative humidity and resists warping, rippling, buckling and sagging for a flat and even substrate.
- Noncombustible material.
- Approved for inclusion in specific UL fire-rated designs.
- Can be scored and snapped to exact size without cutting or sawing.
- Coated face and back for easy handling.
- Ideally suited for soffit applications.
- Suitable for radius applications.
*Mold and Mildew Resistance
e2XP Sheathing was designed to provide extra protection against mold and mildew
compared to standard gypsum board products. When tested by an independent lab per ASTM D
3273 ("Standard Test Method for Resistance to Growth of Mold on the Surface of Interior
Coatings in an Environmental Chamber"), e2XP Sheathing achieved a score of 10,
the best possible score for this test.
No material can be
considered "mold-proof", nor is it certain that any material will resist mold or mildew
indefinitely. When used in conjunction with good design, handling and construction
practices, e2XP Sheathing can provide increased mold resistance versus standard
gypsum board products. As with any building material, avoiding water exposure during
handling, storage and installation, and after installation is complete, is the best way to
avoid the formation of mold or mildew.
