Tile Fix-Ultra
Download brochureWhite tile adhesive is a high-quality polymer-modified cement-based adhesive designed for fixing ceramic, porcelain, and natural stone tiles on walls and floors. It offers excellent adhesion, flexibility, and water resistance, making it suitable for both interior and exterior applications.
Key Features
- Excellent adhesion to various substrates (concrete, plaster, cement boards, etc.).
- Suitable for thin-bed and thick-bed applications.
- Water-resistant and non-slip properties.
- Good open time and adjustability.
- Polymer-modified for enhanced flexibility and durability.
- Free from harmful substances, environment friendly.
Application Guidelines
1. Surface Preparation
- Ensure the substrate is clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, or loose particles.
- For highly absorbent surfaces, pre-wet the substrate with water.
2. Mixing
- Add clean water to a mixing container (approximately 6-7 liters per 20 kg bag).
- Gradually add the adhesive powder and mix mechanically until a lump-free with hand stirrer till homogeneous paste is achieved.
- Allow the mixture to rest for 5-10 minutes, then remix before use.
3. Application
- Apply the adhesive using a notched trowel (notch size depends on tile size).
- Comb the adhesive in one direction for better air release.
- Press the tiles firmly into place and adjust within the open time.
- For large-format tiles, apply adhesive to both the substrate and the back of the tile (Buttering).
4. Curing
- Allow 24 hours for initial curing before grouting.
- Full strength is achieved after 7-14 days, depending on environmental conditions.
Compliance and Standards
- Complies with ISO 13007 (C2TE classification for cementitious adhesives).
- Meets EN 12004 standards for tile adhesives.
Limitations
- Not suitable for continuously submerged areas (e.g., swimming pools).
- Avoid application in temperatures below 5°C or above 35°C.
