UX 500 SafeGuard Tile and Stone
High-Tech, Fiber-Reinforced Uncoupling Membrane
Applications
- Tile and stone applications in interior wet and dry areas
- Over UZIN priming and surface preparation systems
- Single-layer tongue-and-groove plywood subfloors 3/4” (19 mm) or thicker on joists up to 19.2” (49 cm) O.C., eliminating backerboards*
- Concrete and gypsum substrates to isolate the tile from the floor assembly
- Young concrete substrates once walkable*
- Radiant heat floor applications
- Residential, commercial, and industrial applications
Compatible with UZIN CX 15, 20, 30, 33, and 38 cement-based tile-setting mortars, as well as UZIN TR 400 resin-based setting mortar* - For topical waterproof integrity, UZIN WP Seam Tape bonded with UZIN CX 15, 20, 30, 33, and 38 or UZIN HS 200 is recommended for seams and perimeter details*
- Meets LEED requirements in IEQ credit (4.1) Low Emitting Materials – Adhesives and Sealants (LEED v4)
* See Product Data Sheet Important Notes
