Sika® Pinkgrip®

A DIRECT BOND GAP FILLING ADHESIVE

SIKA® PINKGRIP® is a direct bond gap-filling adhesive for the professional user.  It bonds to virtually all common building surfaces, for both external and internal use.

  • Enhanced slump resistance for quick and simple direct bonding to most substrates without the use of temporary supports in most applications.
  • Pink colour gives easy product recognition.
  • Excellent early and ultimate adhesive strength on both porous and non-porous substrates.
  • Excellent gap-filling properties to accommodate uneven surfaces.
  • Good “nip off” qualities to prevent messy stringing of the adhesive.
  • No need for double-stick applications or underpinning in many instances (may be used via double-stick method if required).
  • Suitable for both vertical and horizontal use.
  • Excellent external weathering properties.
  • Suitable for use on both non-porous and porous surfaces.

Application steps

SUBSTRATE PREPARATION

The surfaces to be glued must be clean, dry and free from dust, grease and other contaminants. New concrete or plaster should be allowed adequate time to dry and mature. If this is not possible, use GUN A NAIL®.
Porous or friable surface should first be primed with dilute contact adhesive or Sika® PVA and allowed to dry.

CLEANING OF TOOLS

Tools and excess adhesive can be cleaned using white spirit or turpentine substitute.
