TIMBERFLEX - Self Leveller for Timber Substrates

High Strength Fibre-Reinforced Levelling Compound for Challenging Timber-Based Substrates and Commercial / Warehouse Applications.

Super high-performance fibre-reinforced self levelling smoothing compound with exceptional flexural strength designed for:

• Challenging timber-based substrates (timber-plank, plywood, masonite etc)
• Other substrates with risk of vibration or movement e.g. on aluminium sheet floors, motor-homes or ocean-vessels.
• Commercial, industrial and warehouse applications as a surface floor covering (a surface sealer coat is recommended)
  
• Can be used to level and repair concrete substrates prior to epoxy coatings

This is a medium to heavy load trafficable (when sealed) levelling compound and suitable for forklifts, pallet trucks - with impact loading. 

Whilst Flooring Works stocks our standard budget-friendly leveller, we highly recommend this Flexible Timber Leveller as it is specially designed for timber-substrates and can resist significantly more movement (within reason).

What is the difference between our standard leveller and our TIMBERFLEX leveller?

Only fibre-reinforced self levelling compounds are truly suitable for timber-based substrates or those with risk of minor vibrations or movement. Our Timber Leveller is specifically designed for timber substrates and is different for 3 reasons:

1. Fibre-reinforcement - ultra-fine fibreglass increases flexural strength and hence crack resistance, helping it flex with minor movement and vibrations in an unstable substrates without cracking.
2. Increased polymers and less sand / cement - exceptionally high polymer content to increase crack-resistance and allow for up to 50mm (or beyond) in a single pour.
3. Additional Adhesive - increasing the overall compressive, flexural and tensile strength, giving it a stronger hold and helping absorb and eliminate movement in the timber-substrate.

Thickness & Coverage

• General Use: 1.5mm - 50mm
  • Pouring up 50mm in a single pour is achieved through exceptionally high polymer content and reduced sand and cement that typically sinks to the bottom.
  • In certain applications, you can pour up to 100mm, however, you must mix the correct water content and not more than 4.5L
• Timber-Substrates with risk of movement or Industrial Usage (Warehouse / Factory): we recommended a minimum of 5mm, but around 8 - 10mm will provide much better strength and crack resistance. Thickness increases the strength and helps prevent cracking.

Note: Please use with matching Timber & Non-Porous Primer.

A super high-strength self levelling compound to smooth off uneven construction substrates, designed especially for timber substrates. It has exceptional cracking resistance with compressive strength of over 35 - 40MPa and tensile bending strength of over 8MPa.

It is suitable for residential and heavy duty commercial areas alike, serving as a strong substrate for timber, parquetry, resilient, vinyl, linoleum, carpet and tile floor materials are applied to the surface.

Usage Areas

Our super-flexible levelling compound is designed to level most timber-based substrates (when paired with our Timber substrate primer).

• New and existing strip timber
• Particleboard, plywood
• Compressed fibre cement flooring, terrazzo, quarry
• Ceramic Tiles
• Over radiant floor heating systems

Note: Not suitable over floating floors, resilient floor coverings and direct stick timber flooring.

Additionally, it is suitable as a surface floor:

• Can be polished (Polished Concrete)
• Pigments can be added for visual colour
• Aggregates can be added for exposed stone effects
• Interior or Exterior (External) use
