Description:

ARDEX X 32 Natural Stone Adhesive is classified as C2 FTE S1 “improved fast setting cementitious adhesive with additional characteristics plus reduced slip and extended opentime” in accordance with BS EN 12004. ARDEX X 32 Natural Stone Adhesive is a special rapid hardening and drying, cement-based adhesive for fixing natural stone floor and wall tiles including moisture sensitive natural stone tiles and uncalibrated natural stone floor tiles. It may also be used for concrete slabs and ceramic tiles including porcelain tiles in internal and external situations.

Tiles fixed with ARDEX X 32 Natural Stone Adhesive can be grouted and subjected to foot traffic 3 hours after fixing at normal temperatures (20°C), even at maximum thickness.

It is particularly suitable for use in situations where the adhesive bed has to dry quickly to reduce the risk of moisture staining of the stone. ARDEX X 32 Natural Stone Adhesive is a white powder based on special cements, high quality synthetic resins and fillers, which is mixed with water to produce an easily applied mortar with a working time of approximately 60 minutes.

The mortar adheres strongly to most building materials such as concrete, cement/sand render and screeds, brickwork, blockwork, etc. In some cases surface preparation, such as priming may be required prior to fixing. For fixing on wooden floors consult the ARDEX X 7001 data sheet. For asphalt floors consult the “Fixing Ceramic Tiles to Internal Asphalt Floors” data sheet.
