Description

Multi-purpose, rapid-hardening sealant and adhesive, suitable for internal and external applications. Particularly suitable for sealing cracks, fixing gripper, door trims, stair nosings and skirting boards. Suitable for sealing joints, including those subject to traffic.

Uses

Mapeflex PU45 has been specially developed for sealing expansion and distribution joints in horizontal and vertical surfaces, including those which are subject to occasional chemical attack provoked by hydrocarbons. It is also recommended for flexible bonds between similar and different materials most commonly used in the building industry for both internal and external applications and as a replacement or to integrate mechanical fasteners.

Applications

Sealing expansion and distribution joints subject to movements up to 20% of the average width of the joint in:

• Industrial floors subject to vehicular traffic, including heavy vehicles;
• Concrete floors for internal and external car-parks, supermarkets, shopping centres and warehouses;
• Ceramic flooring and coatings, including in areas subject to intense traffic such as supermarkets and industrial environments where fork-lifts are in use;
• Concrete walls and general internal and external vertical structures where the use of a thixotropic product is required;
• Old concrete floors which are to be covered with a Mapefloor System.
• Sealing cracks.
• Sealing pipe-work systems for air-conditioning and electric cables.
• Sealing sheet-steel sections, such as flashing and guttering.
• Sealing general fillet joints.

If Mapeflex PU45 is used to form flexible bonds, it is a multi-purpose product for constructing and finishing building works such as:

• Tinwork and flashing.
• Skirting boards, cable beads, beading rods and corner guards.
• Pre-formed decorative elements.
• Bathroom fittings.
• Window sills.
• Roofing tiles, concave roofing tiles, covering panels and insulation panels.
