Application

Suitable for complicated areas, adjoining rooms and large areas where pumping is require.

Description

High flow levelling and smoothing compound. Extended workability, high flow levelling and smoothing compound.

Furthermore, the use of ARDEX K 39 eliminates the need to ‘rub down’ the adjoining mixes the following day.


Features and benefits:

  • Workable wet edge of up to 40 minutes.
  • Excellent coverage – 7.4 m² at 2 mm thick.
  • Rapid hardening – walkable in as little as 2 hours.
  • Spike rolling not always necessary.
  • Highly versatile – apply from 1.5 mm.

Manufacturer guidance

ARDEX K 39 can be applied from 1.5mm up to a maximum of 10mm in a single application. To utilise its free-flowing properties the minimum application thickness should be at least 2mm. A minimum thickness of 3mm should be applied on a non-absorbent sub-floor where an absorbent layer is required by the flooring adhesive.


When applying ARDEX K 39 at thicknesses over 10mm, incorporate up to half a volume of ARDEX Coarse Aggregate. Mix the ARDEX K 39 as above without further addition of water. Mixes with aggregate may require a subsequent smoothing layer of ARDEX K 39.
