Description
Ardex Rapidlay Isolating Membrane
Ardex Rapidlay Isolating Membrane is a specially coated and patterned fibreglass reinforced sheet underlay designed to overcome the problems sometimes encountered in laying floorcoverings, particularly sheet vinyl flooring, over new or old sub-floors in domestic and light commercial areas.
- It provides a continuous base which is stable and resistant to damp
- It cuts down laying time as there is no need to wait for the normal subfloor drying times
- It is dimensionally stable
- Quick installation can be achieved as it is a sheet system
- Allows for a new temporary floor to be laid over an existing floor (without potential adhesive damage on uplifting)
- Low VOC and solvent free product
Ardex Rapidlay Isolating Membrane Uses
Ardex Rapidlay Membrane can be laid over a variety of surfaces, such as old sub-floors, vinyl flooring, ceramic tiling, sheet metal, sub-floors contaminated with oil or paint, or damp sub-floors. It can also be used over asphalt sub-floors.
- Screed or concrete substrates where construction moisture has not fully dried out (max. 5% moisture content, 92% RH)
- Anhydrite Screeds with a maximum of 2%moisture content (carbide method)
- Areas where sub-floors have been exposed to water spillage
- Old sub-floors which do not contain a fully functioning damp proof membrane
- Over old, soundly fixed flooring when a temporary covering is to be applied (without adhesive)
- Suitable for use on heated concrete or cement/sand screeds up to 27ºC maximum temperature
