Product ID: TDS-457
TechLevel Lite® Self Leveling Underlayment is a high quality flowable hydraulic cement underlayment/self leveling underlayment formulated with CustomLite® Technology technology, TechLevel Lite® is 40% lighter than other self-leveling underlayment, making it easier to pour and carry. Weighing just 3 lbs. (1.36 kg) per square foot at 1/2″ (13 mm) thickness, it is 3 lbs. (1.36 kg) lighter than traditional underlayment and excellent for installations where weight is a concern. A 30 lb. (13.6 kg) bag covers the same area as a 50 lb. (22.6 kg) bag.
TechLevel Lite helps flatten or level floors prior to the installation of ceramic tile, natural stone, resilient flooring, carpet, wood and other floor coverings. This quick-setting underlayment can be applied up to 2″ (5 cm) thick in one pour and seek its own level in minutes. TechLevel Lite may be applied to in residential structures with floor joints up to 24″ o. c. Formulated using Controlled Cure Technology®, TechLevel Lite helps eliminate installation problems such as bond failure, crumbling and staining of resilient flooring caused by the free moisture found in traditional underlayment.
*Leveling requires surveying and setting leveling pins as guides for placing mortar. Refer to ANSI A118.16 & A108.21.
