Usage
SikaTack Panel Fixing Tape is typically used for the initial fixing of panels used for ventilated facades (until the SikaTack Panel adhesive is cured) and to adjust the correct joint thickness. The use of the SikaTack Panel Fixing Tape allows an economical and rapid initial fixing of the facade panels. This product is suitable for experienced professional users only. Tests with actual substrates and conditions have to be performed ensuring adhesion and material compatibility.
Surface Preparation
The SikaTack Panel Fixing Tape must be applied on the pre-treated substrate, as defined for the used SikaTack® Panel adhesive.
Application
Align and apply the SikaTack Panel Fixing Tape over the whole length of the vertical sections and parallel to the edges of the railing profiles. Press the tape onto the pre-treated substrate. The release liner of the SikaTack Panel Fixing Tape has to be removed after the application of the SikaTack® Panel adhesive. Position the panels precisely and press them firmly until they fully contact the SikaTack Panel Fixing Tape. Once the fixing tape is applied, it must not be removed and reused. It is thus essential to position tape carefully. Make sure the product is in contact with both surfaces. If the unit is not correctly aligned, remove used fixing tape, dispose it off and repeat application with new tape.
SikaTack Panel Fixing Tape is compatible with all components of the SikaTack Panel System.
SikaTack Panel Fixing Tape needs to be used in ventilated facades applications only by experienced professionals and after a detailed examination and written approval of the corresponding project details by the Technical Department of Sika Industry.
