Selleys Liquid Nails Landscape Bricks Blocks Masonry High Strength 415g

A premium grade, high strength construction adhesive that delivers a weather resistant, strong, flexible and shock resistance bond that is useful in many landscaping projects. Uses Ideal for landscape jobs such as: Stabilise stone and interlocking masonry retaining walls Bonding pavers to concrete Bonding capstones to wall Repairing rockeries Seal between treated pine logs to reduce soil loss Stabilise loose stone steps Technical Features Strengthens and increases the life of dry stone and interlocking masonry walls High flexibility to withstand seasonal movement and temperature extremes Excellent adhesion to sound concrete and similar materials UV resistant and long lasting in all weather extremes Low odour during application Non corrosive Gap filling Application Tips Cannot be painted over Not recommended for permanent water immersion applications If re-positioning materials, fresh adhesive must be applied to achieve bonding Not suitable for adhering loose soft crumbly materials New concrete etc will not adhere to cured adhesive All surfaces must be sound, dry and free from oil, grease, loose powdery material. If necessary, use mineral turpentine to clean surface and allow to dry. Cut cartridge tip, fit nozzle and cut nozzle tip to a suitable size opening (approximately 5mm). Place cartridge into caulking gun. Apply ‘dobs’ or ‘beads’ of adhesive of appropriate thickness to ensure sufficient contact and spread between both surfaces. (To minimise ‘squeezed out’ apply at least 12mm in from edges) Immediately bring surfaces together before product skins (within 5 minutes) and apply sufficient pressure to spread between both surfaces Do not wipe ‘squeeze out’. Wait until product cures and remove by trimming with a sharp blade, but avoid cutting into the bond. Leave bond undisturbed until adhesive cures sufficiently. Do not allow traffic on stairs or use of walls for at least 24 hours after adhesive application. Do not apply to wet/damp surfaces Technical Details and Performance Liquid Nails Landscape will skin and begin curing within 5 minutes. Full cure will normally be achieved in 72 hours.

Consistency (As applied) Non-slump, solvent free paste Curing Mechanism Very rapidly develops rubber consistency by reaction with moisture from the air Curing Rate 2mm depth per day Skin Forming Time 10-15 minutes (depending on weather conditions) Service Temperature -60°C to +150°C Lap Shear Bond Strength (Hoop Pine to Hoop Pine at 1.6mm thick adhesive, 500sq mm bond area) After 7 days: 570KPa Coverage 15 metres of a 5mm diameter bead Cleaning Clean all excess adhesive from equipment before it cures with a cloth dampened with mineral turpentine or acetone. Once cured adhesive is extremely difficult to remove and must be abraded or trimmed with a knife. Spilt of smeared adhesive is best left to cure and then removed by abrasion.
