Selleys Liquid Nails Direct Stick (LNDS) is a high-strength, easy-to-trowel polyurethane flooring adhesive.

LNDS has a controlled foaming formulation that increases bond area and reduces the incidence of hollow spots. It is designed to expand to maximise the bond footprint.

The very high modulus bond of LNDS offers significant advantages over more conventional, highly flexible-type flooring adhesives because it holds the overlay firmly to the substrate and minimises movement.

The formulation wets onto surfaces (especially concrete) immediately. It is brown in colour, and available in a 10 litre pail and 700g sausage.

 

Uses:

Direct stick bonding of solid strip timber overlay.

Bonds most types of wood flooring, parquet, strip (solid, engineered and pre-finished) and sheet timber to common flooring substrates such as concrete, pre-existing strip flooring, particleboard, plywood and MDF, HMR (HDF), and Fibre Cement sheets.

 

Features/Advantages:

High strength and modulus for strong bonding.

Minimises hollow spots.

Rapid cure — good strength is achieved in two to three hours.

Good wet grab and initial hold.

Designed to expand (high density foam) to maximise bond footprint.

Suitable for use with high performance polyurethane protective coatings.

No rejection of finishes where spills on the timber have been sanded off.

Resists cupping and rafting in timber overlay flooring.

Low odour and low VOC formula.

 

Application tips

Requires atmospheric moisture to cure.

Must not be applied below 5°C.

Do not apply in greater thicknesses than that allowed by specified trowel as side movement and/or lifting may occur.

Selleys Technical Services should be consulted if any doubt exists in respect to floor contamination, or any concerns in relation to moisture.

Should a self-levelling compound be required, consult manufacturer in relation to drying times and appropriate priming to adhere the compound to the substrate.
