Application

Suitable:

  • For use over normal underfloor heating installations.
  • To be used for securing a wide range of carpets which include those with felt, secondary, unitary and many other backings.
  • For fixing certain release underlays which have been specifically developed for release bonding.
  • To be applied to STOPGAP smoothing underlayments, structurally sound, smooth, dry subfloors of concrete and sand/cement screed, plywood, flooring grade chipboard and hardboard.
  • To be applied directly to non-absorbent subfloors such as epoxy resin STOPGAP waterproof surface membranes, corrosion treated steel, terrazzo, and granolithic tiles.

Description

STYCCOBOND F40 is a solvent-free synthetic polymer emulsion adhesive, developed to provide a peel-able bond for release underlays. It can also be used as a permanent or release bond adhesive when fixing carpets.


Features and benefits:

  • It is water-based and dries to form a transparent, permanently tacky coating.
  • Viscous liquid consistency.
  • 40 minutes drying time.


The type of bond achieved is dependent on when the floor covering is laid into the adhesive. Laying the floorcovering into the adhesive once it has dried enables the underlay or carpet to be lifted when required, without significant damage to either floorcovering or subfloor.

Laying the floor covering into wet adhesive gives a permanent bond.


See the F. Ball Recommended Adhesives Guide for details of specific floorcoverings. Sound flooring grade asphalt must be skimmed with a minimum of 3 mm of the appropriate STOPGAP smoothing underlayment.
