315 Adhesive is a cement based material for fixing tiles on the floors.
It is a coarse powder.
It is easy to use and very economical.
315 Adhesive has an excellent bonding and waterproofing properties.
The floor which is to be tiled should be pre-cleaned to remove all the traces of coating, oil, grease or other such contaminants.
315 Adhesive powder is to be mixed with water at a volumetric ratio of 3:1. Take the required quantity of water in a clean ghamela and mix the 315 powder gradually to achieve a paste. Allow the material to stand for 5-7 minutes for the polymers to get activated. Then remix and apply the material by the notched trowel or any such suitable tools.
Generally the tile fixing is done by two methods - buttering method and notching trowel method. 315 Adhesive can be used for both types of applications. In buttering method, the prepared paste is applied evenly behind the dampened tiles then fixed on the floor. In notched trowel method, the prepared paste is applied by notched trowel on the floor first and then combined evenly. The dampened tiles should be pressed over the combed adhesive mortared floor.
It can be applied, even at low thickness of 3mm, with excellent bonding properties, hence it provides more coverage.
It has excellent bonding properties and it is not necessary to hack the floor or use a mechanical key.
It waterproofs the tiled floor.
It is a self-curing material and hence no extra curing is required.
It is stops shrinkages of cement, hence stops cracking of tiles.
315 Adhesive mixed with water can be used within one hour at an ambient temperature of 30'C. However factors like temperature, humidity and wind will affect the pot life.
315 Adhesive sets in 24 hours time at an ambient temperature of 30'C However factors like temperature, humidity and wind will affect the setting time.
20kg of 315 Adhesive covers approximately 25-30 sq. ft. on smooth and even surface at 3mm thickness.
20kg bag (available in both grey & white).
For better results, use within 6 months from the date of manufacturing.
Keep the material in a cool dry place since it is a cement based material, 315 Adhesive should not be exposed to direct atmospheric conditions. A partially used bag should be stored in airtight conditions.
