Sikaceram-240 is ideal for both interior and exterior applications, securing floor and wall tiles to a variety of surfaces. It is suitable for areas subject to sub-floor movement or vibration and can be applied to most building substrates, including plasterboard, plywood, composite board, floorboards, chipboard, timber, and concrete. It is also perfect for areas that experience occasional wetting, such as bathrooms, kitchens, and domestic showers, but not for total immersion.

 

 

Application
Work in small sections of 2-3 m² or within 30 minutes of working time. Using a large notched trowel, spread the adhesive evenly onto the substrate, adjusting the notch size based on tile size, surface type, and coverage required. For dry, internal areas, ensure at least 65% adhesive coverage on the back of the tile. For floors, external areas, or wet zones (e.g., showers), achieve solid bed fixing by buttering the tile before placing it into the adhesive to eliminate voids. Firmly press the tiles into place using a slight twisting action. Tile positions can be adjusted within 10 minutes of initial placement. Leave a minimum 2 mm grout joint unless self-spacing tiles are used, and clean excess adhesive from tile faces with a damp cloth before it sets. The open time for the adhesive is approximately 20 minutes, depending on conditions, and setting time for grouting is about 3 hours at 20˚C. The adhesive will be fully load-bearing after 24 hours. Do not use in temperatures below 5˚C, in wet conditions, or on hot substrates.

Grouting
Allow at least 3 hours for the adhesive to firm up before grouting, depending on site conditions.

Cleaning Tools
Clean all tools with water immediately after use.
