Glue System

For optimal joint compound to obtain, must Megapan^® sheets only be glued with special glue joints Megapan^®. This comes in a tube of 310 ml.

The plate edges are used for grouting dust-free. Note that the glue in the middle of the side plate is applied and not on the battens. For the adhesive joints should preferably be factory cut plate edges are used.
Plates on the yard must be cut square and cut its full right. It is important that the compression of the plate both sides against each other, the adhesive completely fills the joint and the joint results. The maximum width of the joint, shall not exceed 1 mm.
In the long jump double plating ≥ 200 mm plates relative to each other. The adhesive joint technique is only used for the outer layer. The first layer is butt plate attached.

Adhesive Consumption: 20 ml per 1 meter panel joint

Minimum temperature for the processing of the adhesive is 10 ° C.
The ambient temperature must not be less than 5 ° C.. After applying the glue joints, the first record from the sleeve in the form of a flat strand at the center of the plate side mounted. The second plate is supported on one side so that the plate edges touch each other at the top and downwards a narrow wedge-shaped gap is created between the two plates. For this purpose the height of the plate about 10 mm shorter than the height of the room. When the one-sided support for the floor is removed, press the second album by its own weight against the first plate so that the glue compresses. Then the screws evenly from top to bottom confirmed. Depending on the temperature and humidity, the glue is hard, after about 18 to 36 hours. Then remove the excess glue with a putty knife or wide chisel.
Then the joint and the screw holes or not finished with the add + Megapan^® finish, which is reinforced with joint reinforcement tape.

On wooden structures and timber frame is still the recommended adhesive system!

Pointing system

Megapan^® sheets can only add + Megapan^® finish are attached. + Add to Megapan^® finish is a strong stable connection between the two plates that are made not to tear.
For plates that are grouted with joint approach should be a joint width between the plates Megapan^® 4 mm. The plates will also be mounted 4 mm apart in the same style.
The joints should be grouted to the dust-free. It may only be grouted when the plates are free from construction moisture. With grouting may commence only when the plates themselves are dry enough. Ie, a residual moisture content of ≤ 1.3%.
In the pointing method is a reinforcement tape is required. Behind a joint with the pointing method is finished, will always need support. This means that horizontal joints in walls and a horizontal line or strip behind the horizontal joint should be applied. To connect the two boards should be attached to this rule.

Mixing ratio: 5 kg per bag of about 2 liters of water add

Add Consumption: about 40 grams per meter panel joint

Drying time: 6 hours drying time for 10 mm

Handling and drying temperature between 5 ° C and 35 ° C.

Grouting consists of two work steps, using reinforcement strips. The first coat to dry before the second layer. With a trowel, the joints completely filled with joint Megapan^® + finish and then smoothed. The places where the fasteners are made and any damage will be grouted. Imperfections can be after the hardening of the first layer sanded (with sandpaper, grain size 60). After any dust is removed, a reinforcement tape along with a second layer. Depending on the required flatness requirement and the mounting of the wall, any additional finish coats are necessary.

An impeccable finish the Megapan^® + insert for finish sanding always complete drying and curing.
