Knottec is perfect for repairing wooden doors, window frames, furniture, floors, and much more.

TACKFIX CONSTRUCTION ADHESIVES

... More Info Less Info

Tackfix construction adhesives are fast and strong, and formulated to run well in any 12mm (1/2″) hot melt glue gun. These adhesives will bond to a wide variety of substrates such as Metal, Concrete, Plastic, Brick, Fiber Cement Board, Wood, Ceramic and Stone Tiles.

Tackfix construction adhesives come in 2 formulations Tackfix 48 & Tackfix 180.
Tackfix 48 is an Acrylic based hot melt adhesive that is clear in color, has high viscosity and has a 40-50 second open time. It is ideal for instantly bonding tack strip to concrete and ceramic floors. This adhesive provides the strongest possible bond.
Tackfix 180 is a Polyolefin based adhesive that is light brown in color, has low viscosity and offers up to 180 second open time. Tackfix 180 provides excellent adhesion to a wide range of substrates including wood and concrete. It is ideal for applications where more time is needed to apply adhesive, or where the flooring might need to be adjusted before the final bond is reached. After this adhesive sets, it provides a tough, highly flexible bond.

Some benefits of the Tackfix Adhesive formulations are that they are non-toxic, have an unlimited shelf life, aren't messy to apply and don't need to dry out over a long period of time.
Tackfix adhesives are fast working and can be easily applied by using a Tec glue applicator. Any extra glue left in the gun can also be used next time it is switched on, which cuts down on wasted product. Other adhesive solutions used in the flooring industry tend to set much slower and tend to dry out after using, creating waste.

Tackfix is very cost effective solution. It is less expensive and easier to use than epoxy's, which set to a hard finish and don't allow for thermal expansion of the flooring. Compared to staples and nails, which can damage the appearance of the flooring as well as under floor pipes and cables, the Tackfix adhesives are applied to the underside of the flooring material, so it doesn't affect the appearance in anyway. Tackfix 48 and Tackfix 180 are sold in convenient 20 stick resealable packs.

B TEC 808-12 PORTABLE GLUE APPLICATOR

The New B-Tec 808-12 cordless glue applicator offers unmatched glue output, durability, temperature control and portability for use in the Flooring industry.... More Info Less Info

The B-Tec 808 Portable Glue applicator melts the adhesive on demand: as much as needed, when it’s needed, with no downtime waiting for the glue to melt.
The applicator has a 3 minute warm up time and provides portability, eliminating a need for a required power outlet.

The B-Tec 808-12 features a dual temperature setting with ECO Mode & Performance mode. This feature allows users the opportunity to extend battery run time and to modify the performance of the types of glue sticks being used.
The ECO mode setting is designed to significantly extend run time of the battery being used while the gun is sitting idle, but still turned on. The ECO mode setting provides 1 hr of runtime per each amp hr of the battery. The ECO mode increases the viscosity of the adhesive which speeds up the setting time and is a better fit for gap-filling properties.
In the Performance mode setting, the gun runs at 380 deg F and maximizes the bond strength, reduces the viscosity and increases working time with the substrates. The adhesive output in the performance setting is approximately 4.5lbs/hr.

The B-Tec 808-12 is compatible with the Ryobi One+ lithium ion powered 18V battery, but becomes compatible with the most popular branded 18+V batteries available (DeWalt, Makita, Milwaukee, and Bosch) when used with our recently released Badaptors. www.badaptor.com
