Material Description

CAFCO® SBR Bonding Latex is a single pack, synthetic latex for use as a keycoat for fire protective coatings. It is designed for application to primed steel or concrete substrates.

CAFCO® SBR Bonding Latex forms part of the Cafco FENDOLITE® MII passive fire protection system.

After mixing with Cafco FENDOLITE® MII, CAFCO® SBR Bonding Latex forms a tough, textured, mechanical keycoat with strong adhesion properties. Once the mixture has cured, Cafco FENDOLITE® MII can be applied over this keycoat.

Styrene butadiene latex adhesive

Substrate preparation
The substrate must be clean, dry and free from visible moisture (including condensation), dust, loose mill scale, loose rust, oil and any other condition preventing good adhesion.

Application
Methods
Add 1 volume of water to 1 volume of CAFCO® SBR Bonding Latex. Add 20kg of Cafco FENDOLITE® MII to 17kg of diluted CAFCO® SBR Bonding Latex and mix for 3 minutes.
Apply with a rotor/stator type spray machine, or for small areas a gravity fed hopper gun, to give 20-50% coverage of substrate.
