weberset fastfix is a fast setting, highly polymer modified, high-performance thin-set adhesive, for fixing tiles, stones and mosaics, on a variety of surfaces, for wall and floor application, in internal as well as external area. It is designed for installation of tile & stones for overnight repair, renovation and faster fixing, supplied as a dry mix mortar, to which water needs to be added before application.

Wall, Floor

  • Gradually add 2.5 parts of Weberset fastfix to 1 part of clean water (by volume) and mix it to a lump-free, smooth, workable paste using a suitable stirrer / low-speed drill mix / or any other appropriate tool.
  • After mixing allow the mixture to stand for 2 minutes for it to mature.
  • Highly polymer-modified: provides high structural adhesion, which allows to be used on a variety of substrates, for fixing a variety of tiles and stones.
  • Faster installation of tile and stone due to quick setting and hydration time.
  • No Hacking of substrate required to achieve the required bonding.
  • For overnight repair and renovation of tiles and stone in restaurants, food chain outlet, supermarkets, malls, hospital, airports, metro station etc.
  • Due to fast setting & hydration time allows grouting on wall & floor from 3- 6 hours.
  • Can be used for new construction, as well as for renovation over existing floors for tile-on-tile application/facades.
  • Internal and external use.
  • Lightfoot traffic after 3- 6 hrs. and completely cured after 24 hours of tile & stone installation.
  • No-sag formula: allows for hassle-free application on vertical walls, without any slippage.
  • Self-curing properties, which allows for no-hassle application, with minimum labour.
  • The free-flowing product makes it easier to mix and apply.
  • Water-resistant, making it suitable for swimming pools, bathrooms, kitchen, saunas, and spa.
  • Sustains heat ageing, making it ideal for high-temperature locations for outdoor use, and also for hot temperature applications, like Jacuzzi, sauna etc.
  • No shrinkage prevents debonding and gives longer life to tiles and stones.
  • Useful for bed thickness of 3 – 6 mm. May go up to 10 mm to a limited extent.
  • Do not use on wet screed or plaster. The surface must be fully cured.
  • Do not use on gypsum plaster or boards, fibre cement boards, or other drywall partitions.
  • Do not use on epoxy or polyurethane waterproofing.
  • Do not use for Installing glass tiles or metal tiles.
  • Use only weber bond poxy, for fixing glass and metal tiles.
  • Do not use on metal, rubber, plastics, vinyl, linoleum surface, painted substrates. Contact weber representative for fixing these.
  • Do not use on surfaces subject to vibrations. Use weberset flex for vibration prone areas.
  • Do not use for fixing artificial stone or impregnated stone. Use weberset ultra for the same.

Tutorials & Steps

  • Clean the substrate of oil stains and bond inhibiting compounds, dirt, dust and laitance, if any, using a high-pressure water jet or any other suitable method.
  • Ensure that the substrate is flat, stable, well-adhered and has a normal absorption.
  • Concrete screeds, render and block work should be cured sufficiently to avoid the shrinkage cracks.
  • Correct the local undulation/damage on the substrate at least 48 hours before the application of weberset fastfix.
  • Saturate the surface well and remove excess water before application of weberset fastfix.
  • Gradually add 2.5 parts of Weberset fastfix to 1 part of clean water (by volume) and mix it to a lump-free, smooth, workable paste using a suitable stirrer / low-speed drill mix / or any other appropriate tool.
  • After mixing allow the mixture to stand for 2 minutes for it to mature.

NOTE:

  • Do not attempt to extend the pot life by adding more water to the mix.
  • Do not add any additional substance, like cement, sand etc. to the mix. These may adversely, affect the performance of the product.
  • Apply the adhesive onto the substrate covering up to 1 m2 at a time (or no more than can be tiled within 10 minutes). Unfavourable weather conditions (strong sun, dry wind, high temperatures, etc.) or a highly absorbent substrate can reduce the open time, even to just a few minutes. It is, therefore, necessary that careful checks be made to ensure that a skin does not form on the surface of the spread adhesive. If not, re-freshen the adhesive by re-spreading with a notched trowel.
  • Itis not recommended to wet the adhesive with water once a skin has formed because, instead of dissolving the skin, the water will form an anti-adhesive film.
  • Apply weberset fastfix over the surface using the straight edge of the notched trowel and then comb the applied adhesive using the notched side of the trowel to achieve the desired thickness.
  • Double buttering is recommended for heavier stones.
  • If the adhesive is buttered to the tile, then ensure proper coverage of the tile surface to evade voids.
  • Ensure adequate gap or use a spacer in between subsequent stones/tiles to accommodate thermal expansion and contraction.
  • Joint width shall be as per the recommendation of the architect/site engineer.
  • Clean the stone/tile with water before installation
  • Bed the tiles firmly into the adhesive with a slight sliding and/or twisting action/shear, to ensure good and uniform contact.
  • It is good practice to lift an occasional tile after fixing, to verify that the required contact is being achieved.
  • In wet areas, external areas and all floors, the final adhesive bed should be free from voids.
  • If necessary, tiles should be adjusted, within 5 – 8 minutes of installation. Carefully clean off any excess adhesive from the tiles and joints with a damp sponge or cloth before it sets. Leave for at least 3 – 6 hours before grouting.
  • More time may be required before grouting in case of higher bed thickness or when tiling onto impervious or sealed surfaces.
  • For swimming pools, leave at least 2 days before grouting and then a further 7 days before filling.

NOTE:

Do not expose to rain after immediate installation, prevent minimum 12 — 14 hours from strong
