Easi-Screed Flexible is a free-flowing, fibre reinforced, cementitious self leveller. It cures fast to enable a rapid return to use.
Designed for heavy domestic or light industrial use it is suitable for all common substrates and is ideal for use over underfloor heating.

Suitable Substrates

Easi-Screed Flexible can be used on the following: Timber boards, plywood, chipboard, underfloor heating, concrete, sound asphalt, ceramic, quarry and natural stones.

Colour

Easi-Screed Flexible is grey in colour.

Packaging

Easi-Screed Flexible is supplied in 25kg bags.

Pot life and curing time

The pot life of Easi-Screed Flexible once mixed is approximately 20-30 minutes at 20°C.
Initial curing takes place within 2-3 hours depending on temperature.
Surfaces should be suitable to accept floor coverings after 12-24 hours.
Important note: Should Easi-Screed Flexible be installed over underfloor heating, please ensure the screed is left for a period of 14 days to fully cure before the underfloor heating is turned on. Finally, please also ensure the temperature of the heating is increased in increments of no more than 2°C per day.

Application Temperature

Normal application temperature is between 10˚C and 35˚C.

Coverage

The coverage per 25kg unit of Easi-Screed Standard mixed with 4.5L of water is as follows:-
2.3m² at 6mm depth
1.35m² at 10mm depth.

Shelf Life & Storage

The shelf life is up to 6 months subject to storage in dry conditions. Store off ground, unopened in frost-free conditions at a temperature between 10˚C and 30˚C.

Preparation

Thorough substrate preparation is essential.
The surface should be clean, sound and free from all loose particles such as old adhesive residues, dust, plaster spillages, grease, paint, polish and any other compound, which may become softened by the introduction of water or be detrimental to the required bond.
Concrete bases and screeds must be fully cured and firm. Surface hardeners and curing membranes must be removed prior to screeding.
Sub-floors must conform to the dryness requirements of BS8203 1987 and must incorporate an effective damp proof membrane. Relative humidity should be less than 75%.
The screed may be applied onto a suitable surface damp proof membrane where a good mechanical key has been provided.
Underfloor heating must be switched off at least 7 days before application of the screed and left off for at least 14 days. The temperature should then be increased in increments of no more than 2°C per day.
Application on newly laid underfloor heating will require the use of our Easi-Screed Primer, if applying directly to a foil backed insulation, such as Celotex.

Mixing

Mixing is achieved by mixing the powder to 4.5 litres of clean water.
Gradually add the entire 25kg quantity of powder whilst mixing with a heavy duty slow speed drill and mixing paddle. Mixing by hand does not readily give a thoroughly or evenly mixed product.
Mix for at least 2 minutes to allow the additives to dissolve and produce a homogenous mix which should be lump free and a consistency of single cream. When mixed allow to stand for 1 minute after which the screed is ready for application.
Do not mix more than can be applied in 25 minutes. Do not add excess water.

Application

By trowel or pump. Trowel: Pour a small quantity onto the prepared surface and trowel down lightly. Pump application: Prior to laying the mixed compound carry out a flow test using a flow ring (30mm diameter x 50mm long). A flow diameter of 110-130mm should be achieved, adjust mix accordingly to comply to this flow criteria. Periodically check to ensure mix remains in limit. We advise the use of a spiked roller to ensure a close tolerance surface is achieved. Cementitious screeds are susceptible to damage from liquid and chemical attack (including prolonged or constant use of water) and should therefore be sealed suitably prior to the use of such products.
