ULTRALITE S2 FLEX



The one-component, highly deformable, lightweight adhesive, ideal for installing large formats on facades and external insulation systems.


From Mapei research, ULTRALITE S2 FLEX is the lightweight adhesive specifically developed for installing large format tiles in complete safety, including on external facades and insulation systems. Highly deformable and easy to apply by trowel, thanks to its special formulation developed in the Mapei Laboratories, it guarantees very high yield and excellent wetting of the back of tiles, ensuring perfect adhesion for any type and format of tile.

ADVANTAGES:

  • Excellent back-buttering capacity

  • Very high yield

  • Highly deformable

  • Ideal for installing large formats on facades and external insulation systems

  • Creamy and easy to apply, including at high temperatures

  • Available in lighter 15 kg bags

  • No need to add latex, just mix with water

  • Less dust given off while mixing

  • Excellent white balance

  • Very low emission of VOC


WHERE TO USE

▪ Bonding all types and sizes of ceramic tiles (double-red, single-red, porcelain, clinker, terracotta, etc.) on interior and exterior surface.

▪ Bonding stone tiles on interior and exterior surfaces (as long as the stone material is dimensionally stable and not sensitive to moisture and staining).

▪ Bonding large-format porcelain tiles, also thin tiles, on oors and walls, including exterior façades.

▪ Bonding all types of mosaic on interior and exterior surfaces, also in swimming pools.

TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS

Ultralite S2 Flex is a grey or white powder made of cement,selected graded sand and a high amount of synthetic resin, admixed with lightweight, natural aggregates that make the mix lighter, according to a special formula developed in MAPEI Research & Development labs. Ultralite S2 Flex is a product with very low emission of volatile organic compounds (VOC), which safeguards the health and safety of installers and nal users. It is certied as EC1 Plus. Ultralite S2 Flex helps earn important LEED credits. Ultralite S2 Flex with its low-density special formulation offers two main advantages:

. bags of Ultralite S2 Flex have the same volume but weigh less (15 kg) than bags of conventional cementitious adhesive (25 kg). This means less effort for the workers, as the bags are easier to handle on the construction site and storage warehouses. Furthermore, lightweight leads to clear benets in terms of reduced transport costs: indeed, one pallet of Ultralite S2 Flex weights 750 kg while one pallet of conventional adhesive weights 1250 kg; . higher yield: each 15 kg-bag of Ultralite S2 Flex has approximately the same yield (in terms of square metres of tiles installed with the same type of trowel, installation technique and substrate) as that of 25 kg bags of conventional MAPEI cementitious adhesives.
