Description

Karndean K-95HM

Premium high strength adhesive for use in extreme moisture conditions.

Karndean K-95HM is a solvent-free, acrylic adhesive suggested for use in occupied buildings, as it is low in odor, and contains “zero” (calculated) VOC. Karndean K-95HM contains a broad spectrum antimicrobial to improve mold and fungal resistance.

Use on concrete substrates with up to 95% RH (per current ASTM F2170) and a MVER of up to 8 lbs. pH of 8.0–10.0.

Coverage: 

1/16” x 1/32” x 1/32” U-notch trowel  – 220-260 sq. ft./gal

POROUS SUBSTRATES:
LVT/LVP may be placed into adhesive after 10–20 minutes open time (flashoff) over a porous substrate. Loss of adhesion can result if the flooring is not installed within the 2 hour working time of the adhesive.
NON-POROUS SUBSTRATES:
Install LVT/LVP into adhesive as it becomes dry to the touch with little or no transfer to finger when touched. This will normally require 30–60 minutes of drying time at suggested installation temperature and humidity. Do not install LVT/LVP into wet adhesive on non porous substrates.

Restrict foot traffic for 24-hours after installation.

No heavy traffic, rolling loads or furniture placement for 72 hours after installation.

Shelf Life: 2 years from date of manufacture in unopened, properly stored container. Avoid excessive heat or cold. Protect from freezing. Store indoors at a temperature of 65°-95°F  (18°-35°).
