UNiversal Tape

The FloatMax UNiversal Tape is a patented adhesive connector that creates a stable floating vinyl floor installation that is faster, cleaner, more earth-friendly alternative to traditional vinyl flooring installations. It is easy to use and eliminates the mess, odor and drying time of spread adhesives.  It also provides greater flexibility for installation and selective replacement.

​

With virtually zero VOCs and an environmental footprint that’s more than 90% lower than traditional glue down adhesives, FloatMax Universal offers a faster, more sustainable, time saving and economical installation option.

​

Description​​

 

The UNiversal Tape includes a single-coated 2mil polyester liner with a thick, conformable layer of high-tack silicone adhesive. The adhesive adheres strongly to irregular surfaces and excludes water. It is very resistant to all solvents and detergents.  FloatMax UNiversal Tape also includes a single-coated polyester high temperature silicone tape that is crossed down the center which bonds to the most difficult surfaces in high temperature environments.

Features

 

 

​The silicone adhesive provides top quality adhesion in high temperature applications.  The durable polyester film is resistant to tearing and punctures, chemicals, flow, oozing, and slippage. The acrylic adhesive provides excellent initial adhesion and tack; the thick layer of adhesive conforms to irregular surfaces to provide firm bonding.

​

Tape Application

 

To achieve ultimate adhesion, the bonding surfaces should be dry, clean and free of dirt and oils. The strength of the adhesion bond is dependent on the amount of surface area directly contacting the adhesive. Firm pressure is recommended to obtain good adhesive to surface contact.
