Frequently Asked Questions
TEC7
TEC7 is a MS Polymer adhesive/sealant, that is used in various construction and DIY projects. It is known for its quality, strength, versatility, and durability.
TEC7 can be used on almost all building materials such as wood, metal, concrete, glass, PVC, and many others. It bonds well to both porous and non-porous surfaces.
Yes, TEC7 has high UV resistance and is suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications.
Yes, TEC7 can be painted over with most common paints. Alkyd resin-based lacquers, applied to Tec7 can have a slower drying process.
The curing time of TEC7 depends on several factors, including temperature, humidity, and the thickness of the application. Generally, it takes around 24 to 72 hours for TEC7 to fully cure.
Yes, TEC7 has excellent adhesive properties even in underwater conditions. It can be used for underwater repairs or installations.
TEC7 has good resistance to various chemicals, including but not limited to water, seawater, aliphatic solvents, oils, greases, diluted organic acids and lye’s. TEC7 has moderate resistance to esters, ketones, aromatics and a poor resistance to concentrated acids, chlorinated solvents or chlorine.
Yes, TEC7 is flexible when cured, making it suitable for use on joints that require some movement or flexibility.
TEC7 is a safe product to use when handled according to the instructions provided. It is free from harmful substances, solvents, and isocyanates. Tec7, X-Tack and trans Clear all underwent Global GreenTag’s stringent, assessment for ethical manufacturing, health, safety and eco performance and have officially been awarded a Global GreenTag PlatinumHEALTH™ HealthRATE™.
X-TACK
X-TACK is an instant grab MS Polymer adhesive. It’s suitable for various installation purposes, particularly in construction and building applications, offering excellent instant grab capacity to most building materials. In X-Tack’s uncured state it can support substantial weights due to its instant grab capabilities, without the need of supports, props or fixings.
X-TACK can be used on most building materials for both interior and exterior surfaces including but not limited to, metals, wood, stone, concrete, aluminium, plastics, glass, and ceramics.
Yes, X-Tack comes in a cartridge form with a “V Groove” nozzle, making it easy to apply, however it is an incredibly viscos product, so we recommend a heavy duty TEC7 cartridge gun, Tec7 Multigun or electric caulking gun to dispense the adhesive. Apply X-Tack holding the caulking gun perpendicular to the bonding surface, thus leaving behind a smooth and consistent triangle shaped bead.
It is recommended to clean and degrease the surface before applying X-TACK for optimal adhesion. Remove any loose particles or substances that may hinder the bond. TEC7 has a range of surface preparation cleaners depending on your application. Feel free to contact Olmurtech for advice, on what to use for surface preparation of your application.
The curing time of X-TACK depends on several factors such as temperature, humidity, and the thickness of the applied adhesive layer. Typically, full cure will occur in 3-5 days.
Yes, X-Tack can be painted over with most common paints. Alkyd resin-based lacquers, applied to X-Tack can have a slower drying process.
Yes, X-TACK offers excellent resistance against UV radiation, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications.
Yes, X-TACK can be used for underwater applications.
Once X-TACK has fully cured, it becomes difficult to remove. Removing cured X-Tack is possible using mechanical means. It is recommended to remove any excess or unwanted adhesive before it cures to avoid difficulties using Tec7 Cleaner.
