KE 39 TPS Transitional Adhesive


UZIN KE 39 is an acrylic polymer blend, firm-set transitional adhesive designed for the installation of resilient flooring and carpet tile, including LVT, LVP, VCT, vinyl sheet goods and vinyl-backed carpet tile. This advanced formulation provides sufficient green strength to hold the floor covering in place during installation and transitions to a firm set bond with excellent shear bond strength to minimize gap development. KE 39 TPS may be installed using a semi wet-set method for permanent installations or allowed to dry to a pressure-sensitive state for releasable installations. Suitable for use over porous and non-porous substrates, KE 39 TPS is applied by trowel or roller and firms as it cures for durability under heavy traffic and rolling loads. For interior use only.
