Description Product Overview RLA Polymers RLA High Temperature Vinyl Plank Adhesive is a high-performance, fibre-reinforced acrylic polymer adhesive engineered for demanding vinyl flooring installations. It is specifically formulated to withstand elevated temperatures and sunlight exposure, making it suitable for areas where standard vinyl adhesives may fail. The adhesive provides a hard-set bond with high shear strength and excellent resistance to plasticiser migration, ensuring long-term stability under thermal stress. It is designed for interior use and performs reliably in environments such as bay windows, glass shopfronts, and areas exposed to direct sunlight or heat build-up. RLA Polymers RLA High Temperature Vinyl Plank Adhesive also maintains performance when used over underfloor heating systems, making it suitable for modern flooring applications. Key Features High-temperature, hard-set acrylic adhesive Fibre-reinforced for added strength and stability High shear resistance for demanding installations Excellent resistance to plasticiser migration Non-staining formulation Short open time for efficient installation Suitable for underfloor heating systems Low VOC, solvent-free, and low odour Applications Installation of luxury vinyl planks (LVP) Bonding vinyl composite tiles (VCT) Installation of PVC vinyl tiles and planks Suitable for commercial and residential environments Use in high heat areas such as shopfronts and sun-exposed zones May be used for PVC sheet vinyl where required Notes Apply using notched trowel (V1 or V2 depending on backing) Typical open time approx. 5 minutes at 20°C Install flooring into wet adhesive film Roll flooring to ensure full adhesive transfer Ensure substrates are clean, dry, smooth, and sound Suitable for concrete up to approx. 85% RH Maximum substrate pH approx. 10 Minimum application temperature approx. 10°C Technical Information Technical Specifications: Type Fibre-reinforced acrylic polymer adhesive Bond Type Hard set Application Method Notched trowel (V1 / V2) Open Time Approx. 5 minutes Coverage Approx. 3–5 m² per litre (depending on trowel) Subfloor Moisture Limit Up to approx. 85% RH Substrate pH Limit Up to pH 10 Application Temperature Minimum 10°C Use Interior only Suitable Flooring Vinyl planks, tiles, VCT, sheet vinyl Packaging 15L pails Properties High heat resistance, non-staining, plasticiser resistant This adhesive is designed for professional flooring applications where elevated temperatures and sunlight exposure are factors.
