Overview

ELASTORAPID By MAPEI

Type

Cement-based glue

Elastorapid is a two-component, high performance, highlydeformable, quick-setting and drying cementitious adhesive with no vertical slip and extended open time for ceramic tiles and stone material.‎

CLASSIFICATION ACCORDING TO EN 12004 Elastorapid is a highly deformable (S2), improved (2), fast-setting (F) cementitious (C) adhesive, slip-resistant (T) and with extended open time (E), classified as C2FTE S2.‎ Conformity of Elastorapid is declared in ITT certificate No.‎ 25070277/Gi (TUM) and No.‎ 25080024/Gi (TUM) issued by the Technische Universität München laboratory (Germany).‎

WHERE TO USE ELASTORAPID
Bonding to internal and external walls and floors of all types and sizes of ceramic tiles (single-fired, double-fired, porcelain, clinker, terracotta, etc.‎), natural stone (marble, granite, etc.‎) and artificial materials which are slightly sensitive to humidity (class B MAPEI dimensional stability standard) which require the use of a fast-drying adhesive.‎

Some application examples

  • Laying ceramic and stone floor coverings which are subject to intense traffic.‎
  • Quick repair operations where the floor needs to be put into service immediately (public buildings, motorway service areas, supermarkets, airports, pedestrian areas), even during hot weather.‎ Compared with other fast-setting adhesives, the longer pot-life of Elastorapid makes it more easy to apply even during hot weather.‎
  • Laying tiles on deformable substrates: marine plywood, wooden agglomerates (if sufficiently stable to water), old wooden floors, etc.‎
  • Quick laying or repair of tiled finishes in places such as swimming pools, refrigeration units, industrial plants (breweries, wine cellars, dairies etc.‎).‎

TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF ELASTORAPID
Elastorapid is a two-component adhesive available in grey or white consisting of a special binder and selected silica sand (comp.‎ A) and a synthetic latex rubber (comp.‎ B).‎ When the two components are mixed together, a mortar with the following characteristics is obtained:

  • low viscosity, therefore easy to apply;
  • highly thixotropic: Elastorapid may be applied on vertical surfaces without sagging, and even large-sized, heavy tiles do not slip.‎ Tiles may be laid starting from the top of the surface without using spacers;
  • the pot-life of the mix is particularly long compared with other fast-setting adhesives, making the laying operation easier even during the summer at high temperatures;
  • good capacity for accomodating deformation of the substrate and tiles (chipboard, marine plywood, concrete, etc.‎);
  • perfect bonding to all materials normally used in building;
  • thicknesses of up to 10 mm set without shrinkage and without a reduction in thickness, until a considerably high mechanical strength is reached.‎ Elastorapid has high bonding strength after only 2-3 hours and, therefore, floor and wall coverings may be put into service very quickly.‎
