Autostic Adhaesium- Machine Mounting Compound

Autostic Adhaesium- Machine Mounting Compound

ADHAESIUM is a unique mounting system, which does not rely on bolting & grouting, and can be applied and used without destroying surface and floor slab integrity. It is intended for use to site and secure medium and heavy engineering machinery such as lathes, presses, punches etc. A major benefit of the use of ADHAESIUM is that equipment can be easily removed and re-sited, without detriment to either floor or machine base. For use on concrete floors.

Typically Used For
The setting and stabilisation of heavy manufacturing equipment, to a concrete floor or screed.

Additional Information
Technical properties: Average breaking strain: 0.41 MPa Average shear stress: 1.02 MPa Benefits of use: Ease of use Ready for use without preparation No premixing or substantial preparation prior to installation, thereby reducing costs Does not require special tools or skills for installation No drilling or grouting required Installation times reduced Machinery can be easily removed and re-sited, without detriment to the machine base and floors No heavy lifting machinery required to site plant and equipment in to place Suitable in situations where overhead lifting tackle is not available Positive machinery alignment with minimum effort Scientifically shown to reduce vibration and noise transmission, reducing operator fatigue - with connsequent benefits to production Water Based - Non toxic, low hazard Can withstand high operating temperature without detriment - suitable where floor heating is installed

Application
Suitable for all types of medium to heavy machinery that require secure fixing - cut and fit strips under machinery base. For use on concrete floors.

Curing
Water based product. Will air dry. Curing time dependent on floor/substrate temperature and permeability. Typically 24 hours.
