Instructions
All surfaces must be clean and free of dust, dirt, oil, mud, ice, snow, standing - water and other foreign substances prior to using adhesive.
-
GENERAL CONSTRUCTION USE: - Pre-cut and fit materials before applying adhesive. All materials should be
- glued in place within 30 minutes after adhesive application. If work is
- delayed, remove excess adhesive and begin again. Proper adhesive application is
- obtained by double cutting the spout on each cartridge, producing 45 degree
- angles opposite each other.
-
WOOD & METAL STUDS: - Apply a continuous 1/4" to 3/8" bead of adhesive to all framing members
- starting 3-4 inches from the top and ending 3-4 inches from the bottom of where
- each panels is positioned on the stud. Apply two 1/4" parallel beads of
- adhesive on framing members where joints abut.. Position gypsum board and press
- firmly in place. Use flat panels only. Do not use warped panels unless they
- have been pre-bowed. Follow the fastening SCHEDULE for Adhesive Nail-on
- Attachment in the Gypsum Association Manual (GA-201) or Table No. 47-G of the
- Uniform Building Code. Perimeter fasten 16" O.C. for walls and ceilings, and
- 24" O.C. in the field of ceiling applications. Field fasteners are not required
- for wall construction unless walls show evidence of warping. For shear wall
- construction, field fasteners are required per I.C.B.O. Evaluation Service,
- Inc. E.R. 2769.
-
LAMINATING GYPSUM BOARD: - Apply 1/4" to 3/8" zig-zag beads of adhesive 12" O.C. to the base ply or fixed
- structure. Position and firmly press panels to the bonding surface. Follow
- recommended fastening SCHEDULEs in Table No. 47-H of the Uniform Building Code
- for two-ply construction or refer to the Gypsum Association Manual (GA-201) for
- multi-ply construction. For single-ply application to concrete walls, concrete
- should be cured at least 28 days and free of any release agents prior to using
- adhesive. Permanent mechanical fasteners are required the same as for
- applications to wood or metal studs. Field fasteners are recommended.
-
FIRE-RESISTIVE CONSTRUCTION: - Grabber® Professional Strength Drywall Adhesive is not a fire-rated adhesive.
- However, this adhesive may be used in fire-rated assemblies providing the
- framing, fastener size, type and spacing follow that of the system tested. No
- deviation is permitted whether or not adhesive is used.
- REFERENCE MATERIALS:
- Additional information pertaining to the use of adhesives with gypsum board can
- be found in the following publication:
- Uniform Building Code: Section 4711
