Kiesel Uncoupling/Crack Isolation Membrane
Sandwiched polyester fleece
- Universally applicable
- Short installation times
- Waterproof and alkali resistant
- Stress-relieving
- Easy processing
Kiesel Uncoupling/Crack Isolation Membrane is a sandwiched polyester fleece with fabric reinforcement for decoupling and reducing the tension between top coverings made of natural stone or ceramic and the substrate. As a result, occurring shear and tensile movements are not initiated into the top surface. Suitable for load-bearing substrates with low tendency to deform and crack, such as young concrete substrates (at least 28 days old in-situ concrete), concrete and screeds with decayed shrinkage cracks without height offset. Kiesel decoupling fabric is crack-resistant, water- and rot-proof. In combination with the flexible, one-component sealing slurries Servoflex DMS 1K Plus SuperTec, the Kiesel decoupling fabric provides a stable, decoupling waterproofing, even outdoors.
The substrate must be stable, dry and clean. Prime indoors with Okatmos® UG 30 or Okatmos® DSG. Before installing the Kiesel decoupling fabric, level the uneven surface with Servofix, Servoplan or Servocret compounds. Horizontal outdoor areas must have a sufficient slope according to national and local technical
Roll out the Kiesel Uncoupling/Crack Isolation Membrane on the well prepared and correspondingly primed substrate, first loosely and precisely laid out and cut with a sharp cutter or scissors. Pick up the fabric on one side of the substate and apply mortar with a 3 mm / 1/8” square notch trowel (TKB C3) to the subfloor using the Servoflex-Trio SuperTec providing full transfer. Insert the fleece into the mortar immediately and press it down with a floater. Then lift back the other side of the membrane and repeat the same installation procedure. Avoid air pockets. The Kiesel Uncoupling/Crack Isolation Membrane is installed “butt to butt” Cross joints are to be avoided. Sufficiently wide expansion joints must be created on rising construction or installation components.
The respective top layer must be laid properly and professionally without further pretreatment measures in accordance with the respective valid technical regulations.
The thin-bed mortar used depends on the type of covering material to be laid. When used in conjunction with a waterproofing membrane, the waterproofing strips accessories must be affixed to built-in components and rising components and reworked in accordance with our processing guidelines in 2 stages.
In the exterior area, the Kiesel Uncoupling/Crack Isolation Membrane must be used with Servoflex DMS 1K Plus SuperTec consisting of two layers 2 mm / 1/8” each. Please contact technical department for further installation guideline.
