A hardwood or wood floor adhesive refers to a type of solution used to install the floor surface planks to the subfloor or underlayment. This floor adhesive is in a solid form and won’t evaporate in the air, so this flooring adhesive forms a solid rubber structure between the surface and top of the subfloor.

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®-T17 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-17 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-17 at recommended coverage rate as All-in-One or Sika® MB. See Technical Data Sheet for proper instruction.

For use as an adhesive and moisture membrane: Concrete moisture vapor emission rate (MVER) may not exceed 8 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 85% (ASTM F2170).

Curing Rate

Floor may accept light foot traffic after:

  • at 45–50 SF/gal (P5 trowel): after 6–8 h
  • at 30–35 SF/gal (SC+MB trowel): after 12 h

(depending on climatic conditions and adhesive layer thickness)

Floor can be sanded after 18 hours

Skin Time / Laying Time

~ 45–60 minutes

SikaBond®-T21 “no moisture test needed”

wood flooring adhesive t21

All-in-One Wood Flooring Urethane Adhesive, Unlimited Moisture Vapor and Sound Reduction Membrane

SikaBond®-T21 is a one-component, low VOC, permanently elastic, super strong, very low permeability moisture-cure polyurethane adhesive, vapor retarding, crack bridging and sound reduction membrane all-in-one for full surface wood floor bonding.

  • 270 % elongation
  • Bonds up to 3/4″ solid and engineered wood
  • Extremely easy to trowel
  • Crack bridging
  • Low odor
  • Excellent Green Grab

Usage

SikaBond®-T21 may be used for solid and engineered wood floors (strips, longstrips, planks, panels, boards), mosaic parquet, industrial parquet, wood paving (residential) as well as chip boards and plywood. Once cured, SikaBond®-T21 will generate a super strong bond to a variety of substrates for glue down installations and at the same time form a membrane which reduces moisture vapor transmission from the subfloor and sound reduction membrane.

Advantages

  • 270 % elongation
  • Bonds up to 3/4″ solid and engineered wood
  • Extremely easy to trowel
  • Unlimited subfloor moisture vapor protection
  • No moisture testing required – a dry to touch substrate is the only requirement
  • Crack bridging
  • Low odor
  • Excellent Green Grab
  • Suitable for common types of wood flooring
  • Creates sound reduction layer
  • Especially good for problematic woods such as beech and bamboo
  • Contains no water
