Profile made of PVC that provides an optimal seal between the tiled joint and bathtubs or countertops, avoiding moisture at the joint. It can be installed before or after masonry work. It is available in a white finish.

The sanitary baseboards prevent leaks and humidity at the junction between tiling and bathtubs or countertops. It also absorbs the vibrations of the hydromassage systems, avoiding flaws in the tiling over time.

The Novobañera 3 PVC antibacterial sanitary profile helps to comply with the UNE-EN 14516: 2006 standard, which specifies the requirements and procedures for evaluating the conformity of bathtubs for domestic use and personal hygiene.

Materials

Novobañera 3 PVC is a profile made by coextrusion of PVC-P (rigid PVC) and PVC-U (flexible PVC). PVC-U makes it easier for the profile to adapt to the corner where it is installed, while PVC-P is ideal, due to its greater rigidity, for supporting the tile.

PVC (polyvinylchloride) is an amorphous polar thermoplastic polymer with great resistance to abrasion, corrosion and a wide range of chemical products. It has good impact resistance, low water absorption, low electrical conductivity and is dimensionally stable.

Technical Characteristics and Tests

• Fire resistance: M2 (NBE-CPI-96)
• Abrasion resistance: Very good
• Working temperature: -10ºC / 60ºC
• Resistance to chemical agents: Good except with chromic acid, sulfuric acid and organic solvents such as acetate and toluene / AIM-PLAS

Placement

1. Thoroughly coat the back faces of Novobañera 3 with mounting adhesive.
2. Also fill the posterior cavity with the same adhesive to ensure perfect sealing and good grip.
3. Place the Novobañera 3 against the vertex where you want to install it and press firmly ensuring good contact between the surfaces.
4. Finally clean the excess material and let it dry.

Cleaning and maintenance

Cleaning can be done with water and detergent or specific cleaner in solution. The correct use of bleach does not affect you. The use of chromic acid, sulfuric acid or organic solvents such as ethyl acetate, acetone or toluene is not recommended.
