Application Information
Sag Flow
Consistency: Spreads easily, holds ridges after troweling
Ambient Air Temperature
Room temperature between 60°F (15°C) and 90°F (35°C). For ambient temperatures the standard construction rules are relevant. Follow all wood floor manufacturer’s acclimation and room temperature requirements.
Relative Air Humidity
Between 40% and 70% during installation is best for adhesive. See wood floor manufacturer for wood requirements.
Substrate Temperature
During laying and until SikaBond®-T35 has fully cured, substrate temperature should be greater than 60°F (15°C) and in case of radiant heating, less than 70°F (20°C). For substrate temperatures, the standard construction rules are relevant.
Substrate Moisture Content
For use as an adhesive only: SikaBond® T-35 is not affected by moisture or vapor transmission. For protection of the wood, follow the wood floor manufacturer’s requirements for subfloor moisture. If substrate is not acceptable, use SikaBond® T-35 at recommended coverage rate as All-in-One or Sika® MB. See Technical Data Sheet for proper instruction.
For use as an adhesive and membrane: Concrete moisture vapor emission rate (MVER) may not exceed 15 lbs. per 1,000 sq.ft. (5,44 kg per 92,9 m2) per 24 hours, anhydrous calcium chloride test (ASTM F1869). Do not install when the relative humidity (RH) of the concrete slab exceeds 90% (ASTM F2170).
Curing Rate
4.0 mm/24 hrs. at 73°F (23°C) and 50% RH. Floor may accept light foot traffic after 6-8 hrs. (depending on climatic conditions and adhesive layer thickness).
Skin Time / Laying Time
~ 45-60 minutes at 73°F (23°C) and 50% RH
