Euclid Tammsweld is a rewettable liquid bonding agent and polymer modifier for concrete and cement mortars. Tammsweld is a high film build, ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer emulsion.
Euclid Tammsweld is a high-build ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer emulsion used as a rewettable latex bonding agent and as a polymer modifier in cement mortars. It is used on concrete, brick, tile, stone, block, plaster, gypsum board, lath, plywood, hardboard, and wood, interior or exterior. Bond strength and durability increase, and the film holds a long open time before mortar or concrete is placed.

Tammsweld Technical Data Sheet
What bonding-agent standard does Euclid Tammsweld meet?
Euclid Tammsweld meets ASTM C1059 Type I as a rewettable latex bonding agent for concrete.
What solids content does Euclid Tammsweld carry by weight?
Solids content is 34% by weight. Typical laboratory value. Expect reasonable variation under field conditions.
What dense-surface coverage does Euclid Tammsweld give?
Approximate coverage is 200 to 250 ft² per gallon on dense surfaces. Porous surfaces may require more material. Maximum coverage is 300 ft² per gallon.
What dry time does Euclid Tammsweld take before mortar placement?
Euclid Tammsweld dries in approximately one hour depending on temperature and humidity. Repair mortars, concrete, or toppings are placed after the film is dry. If more than 7 days pass between application and placement, several areas are checked for adequate adhesion.
What VOC content does Euclid Tammsweld carry?
Typical laboratory VOC content is less than 5 g/L. Expect reasonable variation under field conditions.
What substrates take Euclid Tammsweld as a bonding agent?
Euclid Tammsweld is used on concrete, brick, tile, stone, concrete block, plaster, gypsum board, lath, plywood, hardboard, and wood. Interior and exterior surfaces.
