YCS 20 Mil 100% Reinforced Ground Vapor Barrier

YCS 20 Mil Reinforced Crawl Space Vapor Barrier

The YCS 20 Mil Reinforced Crawl Space Vapor Barrier is a heavy-duty ground liner designed for professional crawl space encapsulation projects.

The material uses reinforced polyethylene construction and a white coating, providing contractors with a durable vapor-control layer for sealed crawl spaces and related applications.

The 20 mil liner is classified under ASTM E1745 as Class A, B, and C and has a documented water vapor transmission value of 0.011 gr/h-ft². Its published index puncture result is greater than 500 N.

Where a 20 Mil Vapor Barrier May Fit

A 20 mil reinforced liner may be considered for crawl space projects where contractors want a heavier ground barrier as part of the encapsulation system.

Product selection should take into account factors such as:

  • Ground and surface conditions
  • Expected foot traffic during and after installation
  • Puncture and abrasion concerns
  • Crawl space access
  • Drainage conditions
  • The wall and ground liner system being used
  • Compatible seam tapes and attachment products

The appropriate liner should be selected based on the project conditions rather than mil thickness alone.

Reinforced Polyethylene Construction

The YCS 20 Mil Vapor Barrier is part of a reinforced polyethylene liner system used as a vapor-retarder material.

The supporting product documentation identifies the material as polyethylene and describes applications that include geomembrane and vapor-retarder use. Under recommended or normal use, the document classifies the material as non-hazardous.
