Mapeflex PU 45 FT

WHERE TO USE

Mapeflex PU 45 FT has been specially developed for sealing expansion and distribution joints in horizontal and vertical surfaces, including those which are subject to occasional chemical attack 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 compliment mechanical fasteners. Some application examples

Used as a sealant

· 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.
