fix it right the first time
With the increase in demand for bonding chemicals in the building and DIY industries, it
was inevitable that the focus would land on adhesives at some point. As the pioneer of
chemical anchoring, fischer Fixing systems takes this market very seriously and offers a
comprehensive range to accommodate these needs.
The MK and KK fixing adhesives serve as some of the most popular products in the fischer
range. MK is a single component water based adhesive that hardens through the
evaporation of water. It is appropriate for indoor use and should be used on absorbent
surfaces only. Some of the kinds of applications where MK would a suitable tool are the
binding of wood, cork or plastic skirtings to concrete, plaster, plasterboard or chipboard
surfaces. It can also be used in gluing timber substructures, fixing wall panels and
adhering window sills made of stone or plastic to concrete or masonry.
The same uses can apply when using KK, however this adhesive is more suited for outdoor
use. Where the MK hardens through loss of water, the KK hardens through atmospheric
humidity, in other words it absorbs water. This single component polyurethane adhesive
offers exceptional performance. It is watertight, heat resistant and once hardened, can be
sanded and painted as well.
Both MK and KK compensate for surface unevenness, so there is no need for surface
preparation. They are resistant to chemical influences, ageing and will not run.
