Bona R848T is a professional-grade, high-viscosity, one-component silane wood flooring adhesive supplied in a convenient 600ml foil sausage.

It has a thicker consistency than Bona R848 , providing stronger initial grab and improved adhesive rib stability. This helps hold flooring securely during installation and reduces the potential for hollow spots beneath the boards.

Please note: Bona now identifies this adhesive as a 1kg foil sausage. You may still see it referred to as 600ml in older technical literature and by some installers, but this is the same product in the updated packaging.

Why Choose Bona R848T?

High-viscosity formulation with strong initial grab
Excellent rib stability for secure board placement
Helps reduce the risk of hollow spots
Suitable for precise application using a 600ml adhesive gun
Easy to apply and ready to use
Hard-elastic bond helps reduce stress on the subfloor
Floor can normally accept loads after approximately 24 hours
Up to two years' shelf life when stored correctly and unopened

Suitable Flooring Types

Bona R848T is suitable for installations including:

Engineered wood flooring
Engineered parquet flooring
Mosaic parquet
Wood blocks and overlay flooring
Solid strip flooring
Smaller, dimensionally stable solid wood flooring

What is the difference between R848 and R848T?
Bona R848T has a thicker consistency than Bona R848 and is particularly useful where stronger initial grab, improved rib stability or controlled gun application is required.

Coverage figures are approximate and will vary according to bead size, trowel notch, subfloor condition, flooring format and application method.

Application Tools

For gun application, use a compatible 600ml foil sausage adhesive gun . For full-surface bonding, select a suitable Bona adhesive trowel based on the flooring type and subfloor condition.

Subfloor Preparation

The subfloor must be dry, sound, clean, level and free from dust, grease, laitance, loose material and anything that could affect adhesion. Existing coatings, adhesive residues and contaminants must be assessed and treated appropriately before installation.

Check the subfloor moisture level and confirm that it is within the limits required by Bona, the flooring manufacturer and the relevant British Standards before applying the adhesive.

Application

Allow the adhesive, flooring and subfloor to reach a suitable installation temperature.
Confirm that the subfloor is dry, sound, level and properly prepared.
Place the foil sausage into a compatible 600ml applicator gun.
Cut the foil carefully and fit the required nozzle.
Apply the adhesive evenly using the selected bead pattern or notched trowel.
Only apply as much adhesive as can be covered within the stated open time.
Place the flooring into the adhesive and press firmly to achieve sufficient transfer.
Remove fresh adhesive contamination immediately using a suitable cleaning method.
Avoid loading or heavily trafficking the installation for approximately 24 hours.

Important: Always follow the current Bona Technical Data Sheet and the flooring manufacturer's installation instructions. The correct application method, bead spacing and adhesive quantity will depend on the flooring construction, board dimensions and subfloor condition.

1. What is Bona R848T Wood Flooring Adhesive used for?

Bona R848T is a silane-based, flexible wood flooring adhesive specifically formulated for bonding wooden floors to a variety of subfloors. It provides a strong, elastic bond, similar to Bona R848, but has a thicker viscosity, making it ideal for uneven subfloors or when a thicker layer of adhesive is needed.

2. How do I apply Bona R848T Wood Flooring Adhesive?

Bona R848T should be applied using a notched trowel. Spread the adhesive evenly on the subfloor and place the wooden flooring directly into the adhesive. Due to its thicker viscosity, it’s particularly useful for uneven subfloors or where a stronger initial grab is required. Press the boards firmly to ensure good adhesion.

3. How long does Bona R848T take to cure?

Bona R848T typically cures within 24-48 hours, depending on temperature and humidity. It is advisable to avoid walking on the floor until the adhesive has fully cured.

4. What types of flooring can be installed with Bona R848T?

Bona R848T is suitable for use with solid wood, engineered wood, and parquet flooring. Its high flexibility and strong bonding properties make it ideal for large planks, especially in areas subject to temperature and humidity fluctuations.

5. Can Bona R848T be used with underfloor heating?

Yes, Bona R848T is suitable for use with underfloor heating systems. Its elastic properties allow the wood to move with temperature changes without compromising the adhesive bond, making it ideal for areas with underfloor heating.

6. Is Bona R848T environmentally friendly?

Yes, Bona R848T is solvent-free and contains very low levels of VOCs (volatile organic compounds), making it an environmentally friendly and safe choice for indoor applications. It is GREENGUARD certified for excellent indoor air quality.

7. Can Bona R848T be used on old floors with bitumen or adhesive residue?

Bona R848T can be used on subfloors with adhesive residue, as long as the residue is stable and firmly bonded. For subfloors with bitumen or other types of residue, it is recommended to prime the surface with Bona R410 before applying the adhesive to ensure a strong bond.

8. What is the difference between Bona R848 and Bona R848T?

The key difference between Bona R848 and Bona R848T is the viscosity. Bona R848T has a thicker consistency, making it ideal for uneven subfloors or installations where a higher build of adhesive is required. Both products offer similar bonding strength and flexibility.

9. How do I clean up after using Bona R848T?

Excess adhesive should be cleaned up immediately using a damp cloth or Bona Cleaning Wipes. Once the adhesive has dried, it becomes difficult to remove, so it is important to clean up any spills during the application process.
