Product Description
PALLMANN NEXUS-CORE Premium STP Wood Floor Adhesive
PALLMANN NEXUS-CORE is a premium, single-component Silane-Terminated Polymer (STP) adhesive designed for professional hardwood flooring installations. Its solvent-free and water-free formula delivers excellent ridge formation and maximum adhesive transfer while remaining highly elastic to accommodate the natural movement of wood flooring.
