Parquet glue

When buying a parquet, owners often pay their main attention to the quality of the coating itself, and at the time of purchasing the adhesive compounds they do not read the instructions, focusing only on their price. It is necessary to understand that it is the strength of the laying that influences the durability of the flooring. If you find money for an expensive board, you simply can not help asking the composition of parquet glue and evaluate in detail which of the products offered on the market is best suited for your installation work.

The main types of parquet glue:

  1. Dispersion glue.
  2. The solvent in the working solution is water, which strongly affects its characteristics. Among the positive qualities of dispersion glue, we call environmental friendliness and cheap production. You will not feel the sharp smells in the room and therefore it can be safely applied in a nursery or a bedroom . But the water in the composition here is a bit too much, more than a third of the total. If for an oak board similar glue approaches normally, for a parquet from fruit breeds of a tree, an ash-tree, a maple, an alder or a beech, it does not approach. Among the quality dispersive adhesives that have received good reviews in the market, we can name Tarbikol KP5, KIILTO ECOSTANDARD, BONA D-720.

  3. Parquet adhesive is one-component on a solvent.
  4. Such solutions are excellent for unstable wood species, which suffer from deformation due to the presence of a large percentage of moisture in the glue. They have good fluidity and dry faster than dispersion formulations. The lack of such glue is a high fire hazard. We can recommend the following products, which are excellent for laying parquet - Ansercoll, Tarbikol KPA, Primus, Bona S760, glue parquet polyurethane Uzin MK73, KIILTO SYNTEC.

  5. Glue for a parquet board is two-component.
  6. Bonding is caused here by a chemical reaction that occurs as a result of mixing the hardener with the base solution. In a couple of days you can work with the flooring because the two-component adhesive dries extremely quickly, and the bond strength is three times higher than with competitors. Although after hardening the parquet becomes harmless, but when working with such compounds it is necessary to adhere to strict security measures. Some substances that manufacturers include in the composition of two-component parquet glue, for human health are capable of causing harm. The second disadvantage of reactive glue is the high cost, which is justified by the excellent quality and durability of the parquet coating. At the moment, there are many good reviews about the following products - Wakol PU-210, Tarbikol PU 2K, Kesto 2K-PU, Kesto Eco 2K-PU, KILTO SLIM.
