Bona R848T 1K Silane Adhesive: Strong and Versatile Parquet Adhesive for Professional Use
What is the Bona R848T 1K Silane Adhesive?
The Bona R848T 1K Silane Adhesive is a high-quality, one-component parquet adhesive based on silane with increased viscosity, specially developed for laying various types of parquet floors. This adhesive utilizes revolutionary titanium technology and offers a hard-elastic bond according to DIN EN ISO 17178 standards. The product is designed to minimize hollow spots and reduce stress on the subfloor, often eliminating the need for a primer. Bona R848T is suitable for dimensionally stable solid parquet elements such as parquet strips and mosaic parquet, and can be used on various substrates such as cement screeds, anhydrite floors, and new chipboard or OSB boards. The adhesive is water and solvent-free, ensuring minimal wood movement and excellent adhesion to almost all substrates.
Benefits and Features
Bona R848T offers several benefits for the professional installation of parquet floors. The adhesive has improved ridge stability and a fast, strong initial bond, contributing to reliable parquet attachment. The product is environmentally friendly with very low emissions (EC1 Plus certified) and is free from water and solvents, making it safe for indoor use. Additionally, spilled material can be easily removed, and hardened adhesive residues can be mechanically removed. Due to its high viscosity, the adhesive is easy to apply and suitable for various applications, including underfloor heating.
Instructions for Use
For optimal adhesion, Bona R848T adhesive should be applied under the correct climatic conditions: an air temperature of at least 18°C and a floor temperature of at least 15°C, with a maximum relative humidity of 70%. The adhesive is evenly applied with a notched trowel, depending on the type of parquet floor. Parquet should be firmly tapped into place within the open time of about 30 minutes. If the adhesive rises at the joints, it should be removed immediately or left until it has sufficiently hardened before performing any surface treatment. It is important to choose the correct wood moisture level for local conditions to ensure optimal adhesion.
Maintenance and Advice
After applying Bona R848T, the parquet floor can be lightly loaded after 12 hours and is fully walkable after 24 to 48 hours. For floors with underfloor heating, it is important to follow the heating protocol and keep the temperature of the screed below 25°C during and three days after installation. Any spilled adhesive can be removed immediately with Bona Cleaning Wipes, while hardened residues must be removed mechanically. The adhesive should be stored in a dry and well-ventilated place at temperatures between 5°C and 25°C.
