Flexible large format adhesive codex Power RX 4 Ultra
Great low-slump properties for XXL-Tiles
Ulm, August 2021 | Codex has expanded its product range for tile adhesives by the addition of the codex Power RX 4 Ultra. The adhesive´s special properties: it is enormously stable, quick-setting and achieves very good wetting even with specially large tile formats.
The consistency of codex Power RX 4 Ultra is variable adjustable. Therefore it is very smooth but at the same time, the high elasticity between subfloor und tile remains due to high low-slump properties. According to the company´s information, these properties ensure the safe and reliable laying of heavy XXL-tiles – without having a risk that the tiles might sink in due to their high dead weight. „We wanted to develop a flexible but first of all low-slump thin-bed mortar, which ensures the tiler a safe and risk free laying of large formats“, says Joachim Fülle, Head of codex application- and product management.
The flexible thin-bed mortar additionally convinces through its high processing comfort. At a three-hour pot life it achieves a comparable early readiness for walk-on and jointing after only 6 hours. With a mortar bed thickness of up to 15 millimetres unevennesses in the subfloor as well as tiles with strong reliefs or non-calibrated slabs can be easily levelled in only one layer. In terms of installation, codex Power RX 4 Ultra can be laid by the tiler with the “Floating” or the “Buttering-Floating” method. In both cases a full rich bedding and a secure long-term result will be achieved.
