Never come unstuck with West Fraser and CaberFix

The CaberFix range, which can be used with many of West Fraser’s panel products, comprises three glue types and two choices of adhesive tape; having been developed for a wide variety of applications and performance requirements.

CaberFix D3 is a PVA adhesive created specifically for use along Tongue & Groove joints on West Fraser’s chipboard flooring range, especially in conjunction with CaberFloor P5, CaberDek and CaberAcoustic.  Requiring no fillers, it is fast setting and forms a strong and rigid glue line – while it conforms to DIN EN 204 D3 and BS 476 part 6.

Solvent-free CaberFix D4, meanwhile is a one-component polyurethane adhesive for use with CaberDek, CaberShieldPlus and CaberFloor boards.  It allows the user to see where a seal is made and is ideal for both bonding flooring boards to joists and securing T&G joints; as well as for sealing the edges of boards. 

100^% waterproof, CaberFix Joint & Joist is used to create a flexible, but strong and squeak free bond, which can be applied to the tongues and grooves between boards, as well as a variety of other materials including CaberDek boards.  Resistant to temperature extremes, this PU adhesive can, usefully, be applied in damp conditions.

CaberFix Tape is a high-performance polyethylene-coated cloth tape, which is 100^% waterproof and used for sealing exposed joints as well as perimeter edges.  UV-resistant for durability, this easy-to-use solution seals CaberDek edges to walls, and also protects joints during construction phases, even on uneven surfaces. 

Acrylic CaberFix X-treme tape has been specially developed for use in extreme weather conditions down to -21^oC.  The super-strong, scuff-resistant tape can be applied under damp conditions and will not lift when wet; while it also boasts a high tack point: meaning CaberFix X-treme tape has a high initial grab, and gains strength over time.
