Furring Strip

A furring strip comprising:

• a corrugated member;
• an adhesive;
• and
• a backing;
• the corrugated member comprising:
• a plurality of parallel panels;
• a plurality of circular nubs;
• and
• a plurality of through channels;
• wherein:
• the plurality of parallel panels comprises two flat panels, a first panel and a second panel;
• the first panel comprising an inward surface and an outward surface;
• the second panel comprising an inward surface and an outward surface;
• the plurality of circular nubs being interposed between the inward surface of the first panel and the inward surface of the second panel;
• the plurality of circular nubs comprising an irregular truncated conical geometry comprising a major diameter and a minor diameter, wherein:
• the major diameter tapers towards the minor diameter along a non-uniform gradient;
• the adhesive being disposed along the outward surface of the second panel;
• the corrugated member further comprising a height, a length, and a width wherein:
• the plurality of circular nubs are arranged along the width and length of the corrugated member in an array wherein said array composes the plurality of through channels extending between the plurality of circular nubs;
• each through channel of the plurality of through channels extending the length and the width of the corrugated member;
• the adhesive being a butyl adhesive comprising:
• an adhesive tensile strength;
• the adhesive tensile strength being at least 26 psi;
• and
• the backing is removably coupled to the adhesive such that, when coupled, the adhesive is interposed between the backing and the outwardly surface of the second panel.
