MapeStik is an adhesive in water dispersion based on synthetic resins, selectively graded minerals and various additives. MapeStik is a ready-to-use creamy paste that is easily trowelled with good high initial grab and thixotropic properties for installing wall tiles without slippage. When set, MapeStik has high bond strength and is sufficiently deformable for moderate vibration and deformation of building materials.
• Use only for internal applications.
• Dispersion adhesives are not suitable for applications in continuous immersion in water (swimming pools, fountains, etc.).
• Contact MAPEI Technical Department for recommendations for fixing other substrate materials.
• Do not use MapeStik to install porcelain tiles or natural stone, especially light-coloured calcareous stone (e.g. Carrara marble).
• Do not use MapeStik on metal substrates.
