Ardex X 78 Flexible Semi-Pourable Standard Set Adhesive Grey 20kg

ARDEX X78 is a grey MICROTEC fibre-reinforced cement-based floor tile adhesive with an extended open time of up to 60 minutes. It is specifically formulated to have enhanced properties of adhesion and flexibility, and its unique semi-pourable consistency makes it ideal for fixing large-format floor tiles.

ARDEX X78 is ideal for fixing fully vitrified or porcelain tiles and other tiles with low porosity, as well as glass and porcelain mosaics and terrazzo.

The BS EN 12004 C2 E designation for ARDEX X78 classifies the adhesive as an ‘improved, cementitious adhesive with extended open time characteristics’. The additional characteristics for ARDEX X78 determined in accordance with BS EN 12004 are a tensile adhesion strength of greater than 1 N/mm² adhesion value, greater than 1 N/mm² after water immersion, greater than 1 N/mm² after heat ageing and greater than 1 N/mm² after freeze-thaw cycling, making this product suitable for internal and external situations, including swimming pools. The mixed mortar has an easily workable, semi-pourable consistency to facilitate large-format floor tile fixing.

ARDEX X78 adheres strongly to most construction materials such as concrete, cement and sand screeds, heated sub-floors, anhydrite screeds, and existing ceramic tiled surfaces.
