Description

The ClassicBond Water-Based Acrylic Deck Adhesive is a non-flammable, acrylic-based product. It is specifically developed to bond ClassicBond EPDM roofing membrane to a range of deck surfaces. For example, conventional timber roof surfaces like plywood or OSB3.

The adhesive has excellent strength without containing any solvents or strong odours. Suitable for use on flat roofs, the wet lay adhesive is designed to be roller-applied and used as a one-sided adhesive on flat roof decking surfaces.

Important Note: Roofs over 100sq.m should be installed with Contact Bonding Adhesive rather than this Water-Based Deck Adhesive.

Suitable Surfaces

  • Timber sheets such as Plywood and OSB3
  • All boards should be resistant to moisture but not sealed with adhesive repellent waxes or other non-absorbent systems. If in doubt, a small test area should be laid.
  • Certain roof surfaces may not be suitable for use with this adhesive, for example, non-porous surfaces such as metal or existing GRP; for these surfaces, Contact Bonding Adhesive may be a more suitable alternative.

Please Note: We supply the 1L and 2.5L as unbranded tubs, as ClassicBond does not supply these sizes. They will be in plastic containers wrapped in shrink-wrap for delivery. This allows less wastage on smaller jobs as our smallest branded tub is 5L, which covers 15 - 20sq.m - this is more eco-friendly and allows for lower costs.

Tin Sizes and the Coverage Rates

  • 1.0 Litres (Unbranded Tub) - Coverage 3 to 4 sq.m
  • 2.5 Litres (Unbranded Tub) - Coverage 7 to 10 sq.m
  • 5.0 Litres (Branded Tub) - Coverage 15 to 20 sq.m
  • 10 Litres (2 x 5.0 Litre Branded Tubs) - Coverage 35 to 40 sq.m
  • 15 Litres (Branded Tub) - Coverage 50 to 60 sq.m
Note: A roller fits into the 15 litre tub, making application much easier

Questions & Answers


ClassicBond vs Skyguard

Both of these are made from EPDM rubber, ClassicBond is 1.2mm & 1.5mm thick whereas SkyGuard is 1.0mm thick. This means the SkyGuard is for use on outbuildings, sheds and any other building not covered by building regs as this requires an EPDM that is 1.14mm thick as a minimum. ClassicBond can be used on all roof types.

ClassicBond vs Firestone

There isn’t much difference between the systems ClassicBond or Firestone now known as Elevate, both are EPDM membranes that come in similar thickness and are installed in a very similar way. They both have BBA certificates and life spans of 50 years. So there isn’t much between them, we here at UKFR prefer the ClassicBond system as it is slightly thicker than the Elevate for the standard system and as an overall system is slightly more affordable.

What is the guarantee on ClassicBond?

ClassicBond EPDM holds a 35 year BBA certificate and a life expectancy of 50 years. If you want to get a materials guarantee we also offer training with our partner company that once trained and qualified each roof can get a 20 year materials guarantee. You would also be on our list of approved installers and if any customer needs any work in your area we pass these leads to you.

How to install classic bond EPDM

ClassicBond is simple to install, it can be installed onto a variety of surfaces and detail sections. Please see our video here on how to install onto a timber deck.
