UltraFloor Level IT Base Heavy Duty

UltraFloor Level IT Base is a rapid setting and hardening, high strength, single part, smoothing underlayment suitable for use in industrial , commercial and domestic flooring installations.

UltraFloor Level IT Base has a moisture tolerant formulation and can be applied to cementitious subfloors where there is an absence of a base DPM provided there is no risk of hydrostatic pressure from the subground. If systems incorporating Level IT  Base are to receive resin coatings or floor coverings then the product must be protected from rising moisture including residual construction moisture by the application of Ultra Floor DPM IT Rapid Curing Primer Membrane to the subfloor.

Any surface laitance, adhesive residue, paints, existing smoothing underlayments and any other materials which will hinder Level IT BASE’s bond with the subfloor should be mechanically removed. The subfloor should be clean, dry and sound. BS8204-3 recommends a minimum surface tensile strength of 0.8N/mm2 for concrete bases to receive wearing or levelling screeds. For heavy duty locations or where a subsequent resin coating may be applied, the minimum surface tensile strength should be 1.5N/mm2 . The area should also be dust free prior to any primer application.

Yes, subfloors should always be primed prior to applications of Level IT Base with Prime IT Multi-surface primer (MSP). This will enhance the application characteristics and improve the adhesion between Level IT Base and the substrate. Prime IT MSP applications should be in a thin uniform coating avoiding pooling and puddling of primer. The dry film should be a pink colour. All dilution ratios are water:primer.

Drying times are for guidance only and will be subject to subfloor absorbency, temperature, building humidity and airflow. Level IT Base applications must be made within 36 hours of primer curing.

Yes, UltraFloor Level IT Base can be applied by either pump or hand mixed.
