Shingle sealing arrangements
An exemplary shingle includes at least one coated shingle sheet defining a headlap portion and a tab portion each having opposed upper and lower surfaces. A first line of adhesive is adhered to one of the upper surface of the headlap portion and the lower surface of the tab portion, and includes a first thermally activated adhesive material. A second line of adhesive is adhered to one of the upper surface of the headlap portion and the lower surface of the tab portion, and includes a second thermally activated adhesive material having a minimum activation temperature less than a minimum activation temperature of the first thermally activated adhesive material.
1. A shingle comprising:
at least one coated shingle sheet defining a headlap portion and a tab portion each having opposed upper and lower surfaces;
a bead of a first sealant having a first height applied to the lower surface of the tab portion; and
a bead of a second sealant having a second height applied to the lower surface of the tab portion;
wherein the first sealant is formulated to seal at a temperature of 0° F. to 70° F.;
wherein the second sealant comprises a thermally activated adhesive having a minimum activation temperature of 70° F. to 140° F.;
wherein the headlap portion is free of sealant;
wherein the bead of the first sealant is adjacent to and does not contact the bead of the second sealant;
wherein the first height is less than the second height; and
wherein the shingle is configured to be placed directly onto an underlying planar surface with the bead of the first sealant facing the underlying planar surface such that the bead of the first sealant does not contact the underlying planar surface.
2. The shingle of claim 1 , wherein the at least one coated shingle sheet comprises an asphalt coated overlay sheet laminated to an asphalt coated underlay sheet.
3. The shingle of claim 1 , further comprising a channel on the upper surface of the headlap portion.
4. The shingle of claim 3 , wherein the channel comprises a reinforcement material that is formed of at least one of paper, polymer film, scrim, woven glass, and non-woven glass.
5. The shingle of claim 1 , wherein the second sealant comprises a thermally activated adhesive having a minimum activation temperature of 80° F. to 140° F.
6. The shingle of claim 1 , wherein the thermally activated adhesive of the second sealant is a filled asphalt adhesive comprising an inert material in an amount of 10% to 70% by weight of the filled asphalt adhesive and an antioxidant in an amount of 0.1% to 2% by weight of the filled asphalt adhesive.
7. The shingle of claim 1 , wherein the shingle comprises two beads of the first sealant and the bead of the second sealant is disposed between the two beads of the first sealant.
8. The shingle of claim 1 , wherein the first height is 5% to 95% less than the second height.
9. A shingle system comprising:
at least one overlying shingle comprising at least one coated shingle sheet defining a headlap portion and a tab portion each having opposed upper and lower surfaces, wherein the headlap portion of the at least one overlying shingle is free of sealant;
at least one underlying shingle comprising at least one coated shingle sheet defining a headlap portion and a tab portion each having opposed upper and lower surfaces, wherein the headlap portion of the at least one underlying shingle is free of sealant;
the at least one overlying shingle having a bead of a first sealant having a first height applied to the lower surface of the tab portion and a bead of a second sealant having a second height applied to the lower surface of the tab portion;
wherein the first sealant is formulated to seal at a temperature of 0° F. to 70° F.;
wherein the second sealant comprises a thermally activated adhesive having a minimum activation temperature of 70° F. to 140° F.;
wherein the bead of the first sealant is adjacent to and does not contact the bead of the second sealant;
wherein the first height is less than the second height;
the at least one underlying shingle having a channel on the upper surface of the headlap portion; and
wherein the bead of the second sealant of the at least one overlying shingle contacts and adheres to the channel of the at least one underlying shingle in an installed position, and the bead of the first sealant contacts and adheres to the upper surface of the headlap portion of the at least one underlying shingle in the installed position.
10. The shingle system of claim 9 , wherein the channel comprises a reinforcement material on the upper surface of the headlap portion of the at least one underlying shingle, wherein the reinforcement material is formed of at least one of paper, polymer film, scrim, woven glass, and non-woven glass.
11. The shingle system of claim 9 , wherein the second sealant comprises a thermally activated adhesive having a minimum activation temperature of 80° F. to 140° F.
12. The shingle system of claim 9 , wherein the thermally activated adhesive of the second sealant is a filled asphalt adhesive comprising an inert material in an amount of 10% to 70% by weight of the filled asphalt adhesive and an antioxidant in an amount of 0.1% to 2% by weight of the filled asphalt adhesive.
13. The shingle system of claim 9 , wherein the at least one overlying shingle comprises two beads of the first sealant and the bead of the second sealant is disposed between the two beads of the first sealant.
14. The shingle system of claim 9 , wherein the first height is 5% to 95% less than the second height.
