i-Cure Technology polyurethane

SikaBond®-52 Parquet has a shelf life of 12 months from the date of production, if it is stored properly in undamaged, original, sealed packaging, and if the storage conditions are met.

SikaBond®-52 Parquet shall be stored in dry conditions, protected from direct sunlight and at temperatures between +5 °C and +25 °C.

+5 °C to +40 °C

SikaBond®-52 Parquet maintains stable trowel marks.
SikaBond®-52 Parquet is easily applied using guns or SikaBond® Dispensers.

+15 °C to +35 °C

40% to 70%

During laying and until SikaBond®-52 Parquet has fully cured, the substrate and ambient temperatures shall be between +15 °C and +35 °C without and between +20 °C and +35 °C with underfloor heating.

Permissible substrate moisture content without underfloor heating:

• 2.5% CM for cement screeds.
• 0.5% CM for anhydrite screeds.
• 3–12% CM for magnetite flooring (depending on the organic content).

Permissible substrate moisture content for use with underfloor heating:

• 1.8% CM for cement screeds.
• 0.3% CM for anhydrite screeds.
• 3–12% CM for magnetite flooring (depending on the organic content).

Note: For all moisture contents, the quality of the substrates and surfaces, always follow the guidelines of the wood flooring manufacturer

Sika^® AcouBond^®-System:

• 400–500 ml/m² approx. for SikaLayer^®-03 and 500–600 ml/m² approx. for SikaLayer^®-05. All cut-outs must be filled out. Use a triangular nozzle with a 8 x 10 mm opening.

Full Surface Bonding with SikaBond^® Dispenser-1800 /-3600 /-5400:

• For full surface bonding with the SikaBond^® Dispenser please refer to the Method Statements of the SikaBond® Dispenser series.

Beaded Application:

• 44 ml approx. per running meter consumes 250–500 g/m², depending on bead spacing (solid wood boards, 3-ply engineered wood, chipboards).

For substrates primed with Sika® Primer MB and/or Sika^® Primer MR Fast, the consumption of SikaBond®-52 Parquet may be reduced.

For the application of SikaBond®-52 Parquet all standard construction guidelines apply.
For further information, please refer to the Method Statements "Full Surface Bonding" and "SikaBond^® Dispenser".

• The substrate must be clean, dry, sound and homogeneous, free from oils, grease, dust and loose or friable particles. Paint, cement laitance and other poorly adhering contaminants must be removed.
• Concrete and/or cement screeds must be ground and thoroughly cleaned with an industrial vacuum.
• Anhydrite screeds, including flowable anhydrite screeds must be ground and thoroughly cleaned with an industrial vacuum shortly before bonding with the adhesive starts.
• Broadcast mastic asphalt must be primed with Sika^® Primer MR Fast or Sika^® Primer MB. For the instructions for use, please refer to the corresponding Product Data Sheet.
• Glazed ceramic and old existing ceramic tiles must be degreased and cleaned with Sika® Aktivator-205, or the tile surfaces must be ground and then thoroughly cleaned with an industrial vacuum.
• Wood and/or gypsum boards (e.g. chipboard, plywood) must be glued and/or screwed to the substructure in order to be fixed to the substrate. For floating dry-floors, contact our Technical Service Department.
• Other substrates: contact our Technical Service Department for advice and assistance.
• SikaBond®-52 Parquet can be used without priming on cement based floors, anhydrite floors, chipboards, concrete and ceramic tiles.
• For broadcasted mastic asphalt, cement based floors with excessive moisture content and use over old adhesive residues or on weak substrates use Sika® Primer MB. For detailed instructions contact our Technical Service Department.

Clean all tools and application equipment immediately after use with Sika® Remover-208 and/or Sika® TopClean T. Once cured, residual material can only be removed mechanically.
