Trowel Updates for ECOsurfaces 3.2mm Product

Effective Friday November 20th, 2009
 
ECORE is updating our trowel recommendation for 3.2 mm ECOsurfaces flooring products to a 1/16” x 1/32” x 5/64” U – Notch Trowel.
To best accommodate the 3.2mm thickness ECORE has been actively researching trowel specifications to ensure that the correct quantity of adhesive is applied to the substrate.   This installation change not only saves money on materials, but will allow for additional yield amounts of adhesive. This new trowel replaces the 1/16” square notch trowel for 3.2mm ECOsurfaces flooring only. The trowel recommendations for 6mm and 8mm flooring will remain the same.

The many benefits of this new trowel size include:
  • Increased adhesive coverage at 120 square feet per gallon-a cost savings!
  • Easier application
  • Increased purchasing availability in comparison to old trowel size
  • Smoother finished appearance of installation
  • No adhesive bleed through when applied properly

    Please note this new trowel size will affect the following documents:
