Alcor Aluminium Flashing & Dampcourse
Alcor Aluminium Flashing and Dampcourse is the trusted bitumen-coated, fully annealed 99% pure aluminium dampcourse used across residential and commercial brick construction. Compliant with AS/NZS 2904:1986, Alcor's aluminium core is fully encased in bitumen, making it impervious to moisture, unaffected by lime or cement, and strong enough to be dressed into steps and offsets without fracturing.
The creep-free aluminium core holds its position under continuous masonry load, while the edge-coated finish ensures a clean seal at every joint.
Available in seven widths from 110mm to 600mm and in 10-metre and 30-metre rolls, Alcor suits everything from standard single-leaf walls to wide-cavity systems and step-down applications.
Since 1957, Vincent Buda and Company has supplied Alcor to bricklayers and builders across Sydney and beyond.
Vincent Buda and Company stocks the full Alcor range for same-day or next-day delivery within the Sydney Metro. Courier delivery available Australia-wide.
Product Specifications

- Product Drawings: See Product Drawings
Key Features at a Glance
- Impervious to Moisture: The full bitumen coat seals the aluminium core from water penetration, maintaining damp-proofing integrity for the life of the structure.
- Creep-Free Under Load: The fully annealed aluminium core resists creep, helping the dampcourse maintain its position and shape under continuous masonry load.
- Easy to Dress: Alcor bends and folds into steps and offsets without fracturing, making it suitable for complex wall profiles.
- Unaffected by Cement and Lime: The bitumen coating isolates the aluminium core from alkaline mortar environments.
Primary Applications
- Brick Veneer Construction: Installed at the base of outer leaves and above window and door lintels in residential and commercial construction.
- Step-Down and Offset Profiles: Dresses neatly into stepped wall profiles on sloping sites.
- Cavity Wall Construction: Wider widths suit double-brick and wide-cavity systems requiring continuous moisture protection.
- Flashing at Openings: Used above lintels, around sill areas, and penetrations to direct water out of wall cavities.

A1: Alcor is the standard aluminium dampcourse and flashing for brick construction. It is installed at the base of external walls, above window and door lintels, and anywhere in masonry where a moisture barrier is required under AS/NZS 2904:1986.

A2: Yes, the bitumen coating acts as a separation layer between aluminium and dissimilar metals.
Direct contact between aluminium and galvanised steel can cause galvanic corrosion, but Alcor's full bitumen coating prevents metal-to-metal contact.
A3: Aluminium holds its shape in step-down and offset profiles that plastic cannot handle.
Plastic dampcourse suits straight runs, but Alcor's fully annealed aluminium core can be dressed into steps, sills, and complex wall profiles without cracking or springing back.
A4: Alcor is available in seven widths from 110mm to 600mm and supplied in 10-metre and 30-metre rolls.
The full range is stocked at Vincent Buda and Company in Lakemba, ready for pickup or same-day delivery.
