Description
Product Description
TYCO decoupling membrane is made by polyethylene, with a grid structure of square cavities, each cut back in a dovetail configuration. It is a disconnecting solution that provides an unobtrusive protective layer to avoid potential cracks and maintain a waterproof seal.
Reduce tensions created by changes in the substrate to protect against cracks; suitable for both indoor and outdoor areas.
And here is two types, one only for tiles, one for heating wire.

Why use TYCO decoupling membrane
The use of uncoupling membranes has become more common in recent years due to the variety of problems that it can overcome. There are many different types of uncoupling membranes available which either have added features or should be used for certain situations so it is always important to speak to the supplier before commencing.
Problem 1 – Shrinkage/expansion of a substrate
Newly-laid screeds and concrete contain relatively large amounts of water and as this evaporates, the screed will shrink to
compensate for the resulting volume loss.All substrates will shrink and expand naturally due to humidity and/or temperature
fluctuation.
Any movement, whether shrinkage or expansion will cause stresses to form between the substrate and the tiling layer as both move at a different rate. These stresses either fracture or delaminate the tiles.

Any movement, whether shrinkage or expansion will cause stresses to form between the substrate and the tiling layer as both move at a different rate. These stresses either fracture or delaminate the tiles.
Problem 2 – Protecting water-sensitive substrates
Nearly all substrates are affected by water in some way but certain substrates such as plaster, anhydrite or plasterboard will
lose nearly all its cohesive strength if it gets wet.

Most wooden substrates, when wet, will expand/ warp causing large stresses to form between the substrate and the tile, which can
cause tiles to fracture or delaminate. Wooden substrates will also become weak and rot if continually wet.

Problem 3 – Difficult substrates
Certain substrates can be very difficult to reliably tile in a conventional manner. Existing asphalt contains oils which make it
very hard to adhere to whilst metal substrates are very smooth allowing virtually no mechanical key.

Installation Instructions
Stage 1: Preparation
The substrate must be clean and free from dust, grease etc. Any irregularities in the surface should be corrected so that the surface is level and without voids. Existing old asphalt should be lightly sanded to roughen the surface and then
vacuumed to remove as much dust as possible. The membrane should be spread out on the floor, cut to size (allow expansion joints at perimeter) and then rolled back up.
Stage 2: Application of an uncoupling membrane
One layer of flexible tile adhesive should be combed onto the substrate using a 3 x 3mm notched trowel. The membrane should then
be pressed into the adhesive bed using a rubber float in the direction the membrane is being laid to prevent air pockets forming.
Adjoining sheets should be carefully abutted. All existing movement joints must be followed through the substrate and tiling
layer.

Adjoining sheets should be carefully abutted. All existing movement joints must be followed through the substrate and tiling

Stage 3: Waterproofing
If the membrane is also to be used as a waterproofing layer, the joints between sheets, perimeter joints and movement joints need
to be sealed. Spread a thin layer of flexible tile adhesive across the joints and then bed a flexible layer of membrane into the
adhesive. The membrane must overlap the joint by at least 50mm. For perimeter joints, the same method applies but care must be
taken not to fill the movement joints at the edge of the sheets with adhesive.

taken not to fill the movement joints at the edge of the sheets with adhesive.
Stage 4: Fixing the tiles
Fix the tiles into a solid bed of flexible tile adhesive. If the uncoupling membrane has cavities, fill these first with the flat
edge of a trowel before spreading adhesive onto the membrane with a notched trowel. Grout the tiles with flexible wall and floor
tile grout or weberjoint pro and use acetic curing silicone sealant to fill perimeter movement joints.
