A Non-Gypsum Waterproof Drywall Replacement System for Flood-Prone Areas
The EnduraFlood BASE-FLIP is a waterproof mounting clip engineered for use with the EnduraFlood flood-resistant wall system in areas exposed to flooding, storm surge, and high water conditions. Unlike traditional mounting hardware that can corrode and fail when wet, BASE-FLIP is manufactured from a 100% waterproof inorganic polymer composite that will not absorb water, swell, deteriorate, or support mold growth.
Designed specifically as part of the EnduraFlood waterproof drywall system, BASE-FLIP mounts to studs that are wider than 1-1/2" (2x4 studs mounted sideways, 4x4 studs, etc.) as they are oftentimes found in corners or other sections of walls. BASE-FLIP supports ENDU-BOARD or cement wall panels from below.
Why Choose BASE-FLIP Instead of Traditional Mounting Hardware?
Standard mounting hardware is vulnerable to water damage. Even minimal exposure can result in corrosion, weakening, and conditions that compromise wall panel stability. BASE-FLIP offers a true waterproof mounting clip solution designed for:
- Basements
- Coastal homes
- Flood zones
- Hurricane-prone regions
- Post-disaster rebuilding projects
Because it is manufactured from a 100% waterproof inorganic polymer composite, BASE-FLIP will not deteriorate after direct water exposure. After a flood event, the clip remains intact, helping simplify drying and recovery.

Before installing BASE-FLIP, temporarily hold the wall panel in place using hand lifts. To install BASE-FLIP, slide between wall panel and stud, so that the tounge supports the wall panel. The 3/16" mounting hole of BASE-FLIP should be below the panel.
Use TH-SCREW (for wooden stud) or SD-SCREW (for metal stud) to screw BASE-FLIP on the stud.
