BORNIT^® Bitumen Adhesive

status technical data sheet

9th November 2020

Areas of application

BORNIT^® Bitumen Adhesive is designed for adhering roof membranes in the form of sheets and other roof coverings to roof pitches up to 12.5 %. BORNIT^® Bitumen Adhesive adheres to concrete, masonry, plaster, bitumen roofing felt and other common roof membranes. Prior to application on concrete, masonry and plaster, prime the substrate with BORNIT^® Bitumen Primer for pore wetting. In case of old, weathered roof membranes, priming with BORNIT^® Bitumen Primer is essential! BORNIT^® Bitumen Adhesive is not suitable for adhering polystyrene products and for bituminous sheeting!
BORNIT^® Bitumen Adhesive must not be directly applied to wooden roof boarding as well as lathing or permeable substrates! In this case, suitable bituminous roof sheeting (e.g. V 13) must be nailed down in order to prevent leakage or penetration, resp., of the material at high temperatures.

Type and properties

BORNIT^® Bitumen Adhesive is a cold workable , spreadable, medium-viscosity, bitumen-solvent-based adhesive without fillers. BORNIT^® Bitumen Adhesive has been tested according to works standard.

Advantages

Surface

The substrate must be dry and free from dust or other contaminations. For mineral substrates and in case of heavily weathered roof membranes, use BORNIT^® Bitumen Primer or BORNIT^® Bitumen Primer Spray for priming.
