Styccobond F41

STYCCOBOND F41 is a solvent free acrylic polymer emulsion adhesive. It is designed to provide a permanently tacky film which prevents ‘loose-lay’ carpet tiles from moving under normal traffic but enables them to be lifted and replaced easily when required .It is non-flammable, is protected against biodegradation, is suitable for use over normal underfloor heating installations, is resistant to plasticiser migration and will with stand normal wet cleaning techniques.

STYCCOBOND F41 can be used for securing a wide range of dimensionally stable “lay flat” carpet tiles backed with bitumen/felt, non-woven fabric, PVC and other polymer backings.

See the Recommended Adhesives Guide for details of specific floorcoverings

STYCCOBOND F41 can be applied to STOPGAP smoothing underlayments, structurally sound, smooth, dry subfloors of concrete and sand/cement screed, plywood, flooring grade chipboard and hardboard.

STYCCOBOND F41 can also be applied to non-absorbent subfloors such as STOPGAP waterproof surface membranes, STOPGAP ISOLATOR, Raised Access Flooring Panels, Steel, Terrazzo, Granolithic, Linoleum and Vinyl floorcoverings.

Sound flooring grade asphalt must be skimmed with a minimum of 3mm of the appropriate STOPGAP smoothing underlayment.

For details on other subfloors, contact our Technical Service Department

Highly absorbent subfloors such as sand/cement screeds and plywood etc. may cause rapid drying of the adhesive, thus reducing the open time. Use STOPGAP P131 diluted4 parts of water and stir until thoroughly dispersed. This should be allowed to dry thoroughly before proceeding with the installation.

Dry and suitably prepared calcium sulphate screeds e.g. anhydrite must be primed with STOPGAP P121 - refer to STOPGAP P121 data sheet for further information.
