APPLICATIONS

Bostik A330 FILL A GAP FLEX was specifically developed for sealing connection joints between stairs, walls, ceilings, skirtings, windowsills, wooden and metal window frames, concrete and brickwork. For interior use.

DIRECTIONS OF USE

Joint with the correct dimensions is able to absorb movements between building materials. The joint depth should always be in the correct relationship of the joint width. A general rule is the ratio of joint depth to the width of the joint with a joint width up to 10 mm is 1:1, with a minimum of 5 mm in width and depth. For joints wider than 10 mm, the depth is the width divided by 3 plus 6 mm.

LIMITATIONS

– Not suitable for continuous exposure to water

– Not suitable for PE, PP, PC, PMMA, PTFE, soft plastics, neoprene and bituminous substrates

SURFACE PREPARATIONS AND FINISHING

Application temperature + 5°C to + 40°C (applies to environment and substrates). All substrates must be solid, clean, dry, and free of grease and dust.
