Contact adhesive for ACTFLEX 900 R and 1300 R sheet membranes. Grabs on contact, no props or weights, holds to 100°C.

ACTFLEX 301 R is a solvent-based polychloroprene contact adhesive for bonding sheet waterproofing membranes to prepared substrates. Coat both faces, let them tack up, press together. The sheet holds position the moment the faces meet.

Where to use it

Bonding ACTFLEX 900 R and ACTFLEX 1300 R sheet membrane to prepared substrates
Laps, perimeters, upstands and terminations
Primed concrete, masonry, render, fibre cement and timber-based substrates
Changes of plane and penetrations where the sheet must hold position immediately

Why waterproofers buy it

High early green strength. Sheets hold position on contact with no props or restraint
Heat resistant to 100°C. Holds on dark membranes and hot roof-level substrates
Tack dry in about 7 to 12 minutes, join within about 30 minutes
Missed the open window? A fresh thin coat on one face reactivates it. No stripping back
Non-stringing, no cobwebbing onto the membrane face. Brush, roller or scraper
Formulated free of n-hexane. Dry film does not support combustion
10 year Forspec product warranty

Coverage

Both faces get coated, so plan on 2 to 3 m² of bonded area per litre.
20 L pail: 34 to 51 m² of bonded area in practice (40 to 60 m² theoretical).
Porous substrates like unprimed masonry and timber sheeting take more. Set your rate on a trial area first.

Not for

Continuous immersion (tanks, pools, ponds, planter boxes), copper or copper alloys, expanded polystyrene, unsupported PVC, polyethylene, polypropylene, PVC or TPO sheet membranes, or confined and unventilated spaces. It bonds the sheet, it is not a waterproofing product. Highly flammable when wet, so remove all ignition sources first.

All times at 25°C and 50% RH.

High early green strength - sheets hold position on contact with no props or weights

Heat resistant to 100C for dark membranes and hot roof-level substrates

Tack dry in 7 to 12 minutes, reactivates with a fresh thin coat if the open time is missed

Product Details

Compliance status: no Australian Standard governs solvent-based contact adhesives for this application. ACTFLEX 301 R is manufactured to Forspec internal specification and its performance values are typical Forspec R&D characteristic values. Where a sheet membrane system must comply with AS 4654.1 or AS/NZS 4858, compliance is established by the certified sheet membrane system, not by the adhesive. Refer to the Technical Data Sheet for the sheet membrane being installed.

ACTFLEX 301 R is highly flammable in the wet state and classified as hazardous. Read the Safety Data Sheet before use.

How to Use

Apply an even coat to both faces by brush, roller or scraper, allow both to tack dry (approx. 7-12 minutes), join within approx. 30 minutes and roll the full area to a minimum 276 kPa (40 psi)Confirm the substrate is clean, dry, structurally sound and free from oil, grease, dust, laitance, curing compounds, release agents and loose particles
Concrete must be a minimum of 28 days old, mechanically prepared and primed in accordance with the sheet membrane system Technical Data Sheet
Abrade metals to a clean bright surface and wipe with a compatible solvent cleaner permitted by the SDS immediately before bonding
Reinstate damaged or spalled concrete with FORBUILD 100 or FORCRETE 100 and allow repairs to cure fully
Prepare both faces to be joined before any adhesive is applied - once the first face is coated, the open time is running
Stir thoroughly with a flat paddle at low speed to redisperse settled solids; do not whip in air, do not thin or dilute, reseal the container immediately after decanting
Apply an even coat to BOTH faces by brush, roller or scraper - a single-sided application will not develop the bond
Allow both coated faces to become touch dry, approximately 7 to 12 minutes at 25C and 50% RH
Test for tack-up by pressing the knuckles onto the film - tacky but leaving nothing on the skin; adhesive that transfers is not ready
Join the surfaces within approximately 30 minutes at 25C and 50% RH; where exceeded, apply a further thin coat to one face and allow it to tack up again
Align the sheet accurately before contact - the bond forms on contact and the sheet cannot be repositioned once the faces meet
Press the sheet firmly into place and roll the full bonded area to a minimum of 276 kPa (40 psi) contact pressure, working from the centre outwards to expel trapped air
Roll laps, perimeters, upstands and terminations a second time
One-way stick method: where a face is confirmed porous, adhesive may be applied to one face only and the bond made immediately; where in doubt, coat both faces
Protect from movement, stress and traffic for 24 hours; full bond strength and service loads, heat and water contact after 24 hours
Clean tools immediately while wet with a compatible solvent cleaner permitted by the SDS; cured adhesive can only be removed mechanically
