FAQs
Q: Why is a seam probe important for single-ply roofing membranes?
A: A seam probe helps detect cold or incomplete welds by allowing you to apply pressure and feel for gaps or failures in the seam. Testing helps ensure long-term integrity.
Q: How should I use the probe without damaging the membrane?
A: After the weld has cooled, position the plated steel tip parallel to the seam surface and slide it along gently. If the tip penetrates or catches, mark the area and repair accordingly.
Q: Can I extend the handle for overhead or standing checks?
A: The SP-01 model is a fixed 8″ hardwood handle designed for handheld use. For extended reach, use a model with a threaded handle or extension-compatible design.
Q: What maintenance is required for the tool?
A: Keep the steel tip clean and free of debris, store the probe in a safe place to prevent tip damage, and inspect the handle for splits or wear before use.
