MAX 4 Reinforcing sheets are die cut and specially profiled steel sheets used for reinforcing ultra thin light-weight liquid screed floors on top of (existing) wooden or other sorts of surfaces.
The MAX 4 Reinforcing sheets are available in two variants. Under floor heating can be integrated in the FS 10 and FS 20 MAX 4 Therm Reinforcing sheets.
Application possibilities
- Can be finished with tiles, natural stone, terrazzo or timber flooring
- Waterproof floors
- Upgrading concrete floors
- With under floor heating on existing timber floors
- Upgrading timber floors
MAX 4 Reinforcing sheets consist of a factory-made die cut, profiled top and base sheets which are joined to each other by means of pneumo hydraulic TOX joining and are slightly shifted, resulting in the formation of a half-lapped joint being formed all around ensuring a stable overlap.
The double sheets are laid with a fixed overlap the width of the half-lapped joint and attached to each other mechanically by means of an upright lip in the profile. Special edge profiles ensure a responsible connection to the ascending work. The cement or plaster-bound mortar poured floor can be laid after fixing the MAX 4 Reinforcing sheets. Because of the open structure of the MAX 4sheet, the covering floor also functions as a levelling floor.
| Floor thicknesses of MAX 4 floor system: | |
|---|---|
| MAX 4 Therm Reinforcing sheet FS10 + poured floor | 15 mm |
| MAX 4 Therm Reinforcing sheet FS20 + poured floor | 25 mm |
The finished floor can be covered in any sort of hard or soft covering (carpet, linoleum, ceramic tiles).
