Tenax Flowing is Italian made premium liquid
glue that offers many outstanding characteristics that fabricators look for in
a flowing grade glue. Why is Tenax the best liquid flowing polyester glue to
use on granite and stone?
10 REASONS WHY TENAX LIQUID FLOWING POLYESTER
IS BEST
1. FAST CURE TIME:
Tenax Flowing Granite Glue cures in about 15-20 minutes with a workable time
between 8-10 minutes in real-world shop and jobsite applications. That gives
plenty of time to get the glue on/between the stone, clamped, and finished
correctly before the cure time but sets fast enough to not waste time in the
shop or field.
2. SMOOTH
CONSISTENCY:
The creamy texture of the Tenax Flowing Stone Glue makes it super easy to work with— especially
when adding color and hardener.
3. GREAT
TRANSPARENT COLOR:
Tenax made the flowing stone glue with the purest polyester resin available.
This gives Tenax Transparent Flowing some of the lightest and most transparent
polyester glue on the market. In the can, it looks very light in color. When
spread onto stone, Tenax Flowing Adhesive becomes very clear and transparent.
4. EASY TO COLOR:
Because Tenax Transparent is so light in color, it makes it super easy to add
tint to color-match the stone.
5. POLISHES TO A HIGH GLOSS:
Tenax Transparent Flowing polishes just like the stone does. This is extremely
important when doing seams, filling cracks, chips, or doing lamination work.
6. EXTREMELY STRONG BOND:
Tenax, using premium resin raw materials, has
produced one of the strongest polyester
bonds in the stone industry. Fabricators are extremely confident that once bonded,
Tenax will not fail.
7. DURABLE
FOR YEARS
Tenax Transparent Flowing is extremely
durable after installation. No matter what the homeowner throws at Tenax
Flowing: water, oils, chemicals, etc, it will stand strong and be as durable as
the stone for years to come.
8. PRODUCED
MORE THAN 50 YEARS:
Tenax has been producing polyester adhesive
glues for granite and stone for over 50 years. The successful track record of
use and applications have made Tenax a worldwide-known company for its quality,
consistency in every can, and its long durability.
9. 10%-25%
MORE GLUE IN THE CAN:
Tenax 1 Liter cans are sold by volume of 1
Liter cans of glue. That means you get 1000 ML of glue per each 1 liter can of
glue. How does that stack up against Tenax competitors? Check their label and
you will very clearly see. Some sell quarts with 750ml of glue. Some sell 900ml
of glue. But none of them sell 1000ml of glue. What does that mean for you the
fabricator? That means you are getting 10%-25% more glue per can with Tenax.
Don’t believe it?
Look at labels and compare yourself. Even more, take a Tenax 1 Liter can and place
it side by side to one of Tenax competitor cans. The difference is very clear!
