FastGel® S1+

Product catalog summary
Product Overview: FastGel® S1+ is a tri-polymer gel designed for tile and stone installation, offering features like accelerated adhesion, rapid setting, and crack resistance. It includes quartz microspheres and has low cement content to prevent cracks.
Key Features: The product provides a creamy, fluid, and thixotropic mixture with high application reliability. It maintains shape and thickness on surfaces, offers double vertical slip resistance, and has an extended open time of over 45 minutes.
TileSafe® System: When used with SafetyGel®, it forms the TileSafe® System for rapid installation of large-format tiles, effectively managing substrate movements and distributing heavy loads.
Technological Innovations: Incorporates Fluidotixo® Anti-Fatigue technology for smooth application, a dual pot life system for reactivation, and enhanced workability with double slip resistance and extended open time.
Performance and Safety: Classified as C2FTE S1 under EN 12004, it offers high tensile bond strength and is suitable for various substrates, including porcelain stoneware and natural stone, for both interior and exterior use.
Limitations: Not suitable for inadequately cured concrete, timber, metal, or certain surfaces. Requires protection from heavy rain for 12 hours post-application and should not be mixed with water once setting begins.
Certifications: Complies with EN 12004, ISO 13007, MED 2014/90/EU, and EC1 Plus Gev Emicode standards, ensuring low indoor air emissions and marine suitability.
Product Specifications: Available in white and grey, packaged in 20 kg recyclable bags, with a shelf life of 12 months. It has excellent moisture, alkali, and solvent resistance, but low acid resistance.
Technical Specifications: Exhibits initial bond strength of ≥ 1.0 N/mm² after 28 days, maintains adhesion after various exposures, and has an open time of ≥ 0.5 N/mm² after 30 minutes.
Application Specifications: Mixed in Class 5 - Fluidotixo Anti-Fatigue, with a pot life of 60 minutes. Ready for foot traffic in 3 hours and fully operational in 12 hours, applicable at temperatures from +5°C to +35°C.
Preparation and Application: Substrates must be sound and contaminant-free. The mixture is prepared by adding the product to water and mixing until homogeneous, using a notched trowel for application.
Special Applications: High-Adhesion Anti-Fracture System recommended for indoor and outdoor use. Specific techniques required for radiant heating systems and swimming pools.
Grouting, Sealing, and Maintenance: Decorative grouts and epoxy gels recommended for grouting, with specific sealants for joints. Maintenance should use Litokol detergents.
Warnings and Safety Information: Tools should be cleaned with water before the gel sets. Safety data sheets are available online, and the product is intended for professional use.

FastGel® S1+-1

FastGel® S1+ Technical Specifications Elastic, crack-resistant, hydro-curing tri-polymer gel. Accelerated adhesion and rapid setting. Double pot life. Fluidotixo® - C5, with low cement content and reinforced with quartz microspheres, prevents the formation of cracks when laying tiles, porcelain stoneware, large slabs of all types and sizes, and natural stone. When combined with SafetyGel®, it forms the High-Adhesion Anti-Crack System – TileSafe® System. Product description Elastic, crack-resistant, tri-polymeric hydro-curing gel with double pot life, with accelerated adhesion and rapid setting, featuring the exclusive Fluidotixo® Anti-Fatigue compound, enhanced with quartz microspheres, formulated with low cement content (<25%), prevents the formation of cracks when laying tiles, porcelain stoneware of all types and sizes, and natural stone, both indoors and outdoors. Designed for high application reliability and thanks to state-of-the-art technology, the mixture is extremely creamy, fluid and thixotropic; it maintains its shape and thickness on both floors and walls with 100% wetting power, achieving double vertical slip resistance (T) and an extended open time of over 45 minutes. FastGel® S1+ develops accelerated, fracture-resistant elastic adhesion with ultra-high-performance rapid setting thanks to the synergy between the tripolymer system and the quartz microspheres. The dual curing mechanism ensures stable, tension-free installation and uniform adhesion of large-format tiles and stone slabs, whilst preventing the formation of stains on marble and natural stone susceptible to moisture. This advanced interaction enables FastGel® S1+ to deliver high performance with a rapid 12-hour curing time, even on challenging substrates or those subject to high stresses, such as overlays on old floors, underfloor heating systems, street furniture, balconies and terraces, where even extreme temperature fluctuations, moisture and mechanical stresses make adhesion conditions critical. Classified as C2FTE S1 – EN 12004 Technical Speci

FastGel® S1+-2

TileSafe® System FastGel® S1+, when combined with SafetyGel®, forms the High-Adhesion Anti-Fracture System - TileSafe® System - engineered for the rapid installation of large-format tiles and slabs of any type and size in high-traffic areas, even on cracked substrates (up to 3 mm). The system helps to dissipate and neutralise substrate movements and tile expansion, whilst distributing heavy loads evenly without causing stress. Gel formula with a patent application filed FastGel® S1+ and the TileSafe® System are highly innovative Litokol inventions, with international patent applications filed...

FastGel® S1+-3

This pseudoplastic behaviour allows for precise and highly fluid application, with superior adhesion to the substrate. The Fluidotixo® Antifatica compound has an extremely low apparent viscosity, which promotes exceptional fluidity under the trowel and 100% wettability. Designed for professional installers, the same mix delivers exceptional spreadability and reduces fatigue during prolonged installation of floor and wall coverings. Once applied, its ultra-thixotropic formula ensures that the shape and thickness remain unchanged on floors, with no sagging up to a thickness of 20 mm, even with...

FastGel® S1+-4

The Fluidotixo® rheology allows for dynamic application: fluid under load, stable during application. The quartz microspheres reinforce the ITZ (Interfacial Transition Zone), transforming it into a monolithic elastic zone capable of absorbing movement, mechanical shocks and thermal variations without the propagation of cracks. Developed using the most advanced materials engineering, Fast Control® is an engineered hardening system based on the synergistic interaction between mineral hydration and hydro-curing cross-linking. This dual-curing mechanism triggers two complementary reactions: After...

FastGel® S1+-5

System comprises two different technologies: 1. SafetyGel® - a 6-dimensional elastic anti-fracture membrane, capable of absorbing and compensating for movements in all six spatial directions before they are transmitted to the cladding. 2. FastGel® S1+ - a smart, elastic, crack-resistant tripolymeric gel with accelerated adhesion and rapid setting, enhanced with Crack Prevention® technology, capable of protecting the internal bond zone from microcracking and mechanical stress. Acts as a smart structural interface, protecting the adhesive transition zone (ITZ) and promoting a flexible, long-lasting...
