Superior Stone Products V-MAX Stone Adhesive – Big Box, SV-9, Knife Grade
The Superior Stone Products V-MAX Stone Adhesive in SV-9 is the thick paste, knife grade of Superior's pure vinyl ester stone adhesive, supplied in the Big Box, Superior's five-gallon bag-in-box container.
Key Features
- SV-9 is Superior's published viscosity code for the thick paste, knife grade; SV-1 is the syrup, pourable grade of the same resin.
- Big Box holds 5 gallons and is Superior's bag-in-box format, listed by distributors as UPS ready.
- Pure vinyl ester chemistry, which Superior describes as the strongest bonding pure vinyl ester adhesive in the stone industry.
- Published for natural stone, quartz surfaces such as Caesarstone, Silestone and Cambria, solid surface such as Corian, Formica and Wilsonart, and sintered stone such as Neolith and Dekton.
- Vinyl ester chemistry, sold under the V-MAX name in the SV-1 flowing grade.
Who Is This For?
Production shops that want a vinyl ester paste rather than a polyester one for seam and edge work on hard material, and buy at five-gallon scale. The bag-in-box format is the one to order when the adhesive has to be delivered rather than collected.
What This Is Not For
SV-9 is a thick paste and will not run into a rod slot or a hairline crack on its own; the Superior Stone Products V-MAX Stone Adhesive - 5 Gallon Pail, SV-1, Flowing is the syrup grade for that work. V-MAX is also not a setting adhesive, so bonding stone or tile down to plywood, backer board, concrete or masonry calls for the Superior Stone Products E-1500-S Tile & Stone Setting Epoxy.
