Kerakoll L34 Evolution Rapid – Rapid Setting Mineral Adhesive for Hardwood Floors

Kerakoll L34 Evolution Rapid is an organic, rapid setting and hardening mineral adhesive designed for the high-performance installation of hardwood floors. This advanced adhesive ensures quick curing and rapid development of strength, even at low temperatures, making it ideal for both residential and commercial flooring projects.

Key Features & Benefits

  • Rapid Setting and Hardening: Fast curing allows for quick turnaround and foot traffic in as little as 3 hours.
  • Long Workability Time: Offers extended open time for precise and stress-free installation.
  • Universal Compatibility: Perfect for laying all types of hardwood flooring on all common substrates.
  • Anti-Shock System Technology: Ensures exceptional bond strength and flexibility under real-world conditions.
  • Perfect Balance: Provides optimal adhesive force combined with elasticity to accommodate wood movement.
  • Heated Substrate Approved: Safe for use with underfloor heating systems.

Areas of Application

Kerakoll L34 Evolution Rapid is suitable for the installation of:

  • Traditional and prefinished hardwood floors of all types and formats
  • Wood mosaics, industrial hardwood floors (EN 13488, EN 14761)
  • Solid wood elements, strips, tongue-and-groove boards (EN 13227, EN 13226, EN 13228)
  • Prefinished tongue-and-groove plywood strips (EN 13489)
  • Bamboo floors and engineered wood flooring (EN 14342)

Compatible Substrates

  • Cement-based and calcium sulphate screeds
  • Keracem Eco screeds
  • Wood panels
  • Existing marble, ceramic, or similar flooring
  • Cast asphalt screeds

Ideal for interior floors in both residential and commercial buildings. Not suitable for external use or substrates subject to rising damp.

Application Instructions

  1. Surface Preparation: Ensure substrates are compact, stable, dry, and free from dust, cracks, or detaching substances. Moisture content must not exceed 2% for cement screeds (1.7% with underfloor heating) or 0.5% for anhydrite screeds (0.2% with underfloor heating).
  2. Priming: Treat high-moisture screeds or non-absorbent substrates with Fast One Coat DPM or Keragrip Eco Pulep as required.
  3. Mixing: Combine Part A (9.4 kg) and Part B (0.6 kg) using a low-speed mixer (≈400 rpm) until a smooth, homogeneous paste is achieved.
  4. Application: Spread evenly with a No.4 toothed trowel. Press wood strips firmly into the adhesive, ensuring full contact. Maintain a 7–10 mm expansion gap from walls or fixed elements.
  5. Cleaning: Remove fresh adhesive with wipes or Diluente 01. Once cured, remove mechanically.
