SpECtite ETA is designed to provide permanent
fixing for ceramic tiles where a hygienic, chemically
resistant and waterproof adhesive is required.
SpECtite ETA is designed as an impervious, high
strength adhesive and grouting material offering
excellent chemical resistance.
The product is recommended for wall and floor
tiling where hygiene is of paramount importance,
particularly food processing areas, swimming pools
and hospital applications.
SpECtite ETA should be used in critical situations
where traditional cementitious adhesives are
inappropriate particularly in aggressive
environments.
SpECtite ETA has good resistance to commonly
encountered dilute acids, alkalis, salts, oils and fats.
• Excellent adhesion even in immersed conditions
• Hygienic – will not encourage bacterial growth
• Excellent application characteristics
• Excellent chemical resistance
Surface Preparation
The substrate must be clean and dust free. All
contaminants such as friable material, grease
and oil should be removed completely.
Mixing
SpECtite ETA is supplied as a two-component pack
consisting of a base component and a curing agent.
The total contents of the hardener can should
be emptied into the base component and stirred
thoroughly using a suitable
spatula or a drill and
paddle until a smooth
paste which is uniform
in colour, is obtained.
Application
The mixed material should be applied to the substrate
using a toothed tiling comb. The tiles should be
pressed firmly in place using a twisting action to
ensure good contact with the adhesive.
Typical adhesive depth will be approx. 3 – 4mm.
Remove any excess adhesive from the surface of the
tiles with a dry cloth immediately.
The joints between tiles may be grouted using
SpECtite ETA applied by plastic spatula, working
on a maximum area of 0.5m2 at a time.
SpECtite ETA is supplied in 4.5 litre and 15 litre
packs.
