Squeaking floors – the single most common “call-back” complaint in domestic building work – could soon be a thing of the past, thanks to new “No Squeak” adhesive from Norbord. <br> <br> Available from all stockists of Norbord’s leading Caberfloor particleboard floor panels, “No Squeak” is a tough polyurethane adhesive designed specifically for bonding particleboard floor panels to their supporting joists.<br> <br> Now the problem of squeaky floors can be prevented before it occurs by using Norbord’s “No Squeak” adhesive in place of mechanical fixings.<br> <br> Ideal for the general builder carrying out repair, maintenance and improvement contracts, “No Squeak” is a gap-filling adhesive which creates a strong bond and prevents any subsequent differential movement. The adhesive remains flexible when cured and will not become brittle or crack. <br> <br> Traditionally, each 2400 mm x 600 mm tongue and groove board requires up to 17 nails to fix it to the joist. With Norbord “No-Squeak” only three nails are required; these have no structural purpose but simply hold the board in place while the adhesive cures.<br> <br>
