Akfix High Tack – Superior Bond Strength Price in Kenya – KSh 1,600 Inc. VAT

In modern construction, interior fit-outs and industrial installations, speed, strength and reliability are essential. Traditional fixing methods such as screws, nails and mechanical fasteners can damage surfaces, increase installation time and compromise the finished appearance. Akfix High Tack – Superior Bond Strength is a premium MS Polymer-based construction adhesive engineered to deliver exceptional initial grab and permanent high-strength bonding without the need for additional mechanical fixing in many applications.

Available from Startcore Ventures Limited for KSh 1,600 Inc. VAT, Akfix High Tack is designed for professional contractors, interior designers, aluminium fabricators, carpenters, shop fitters and maintenance teams who require a powerful, durable adhesive capable of bonding a wide variety of construction materials. Its advanced hybrid polymer technology provides excellent adhesion on both porous and non-porous substrates while remaining permanently flexible after curing, helping absorb movement, vibration and temperature changes without cracking or shrinking.

Whether you are installing decorative wall panels, fixing skirting boards, mounting mirrors, bonding natural stone or assembling furniture, Akfix High Tack offers a fast, clean and dependable bonding solution that reduces labour time while delivering professional results.

Why Choose Akfix High Tack Superior Bond Strength?

Many general-purpose adhesives provide adequate bonding but require clamps, nails or extended curing times before they achieve full strength. Akfix High Tack is formulated with high initial grab technology, allowing heavy materials to stay in position immediately after application, reducing the need for temporary supports during installation.

Application Guidelines

For the best bonding performance:

1.  Ensure both bonding surfaces are clean, dry and free from dust, grease and loose particles. 
2.  Cut the cartridge nozzle to the required bead size. 
3.  Apply the adhesive in vertical beads or spots depending on the material. 
4.  Press components firmly together. 
5.  For very heavy materials, temporary mechanical support may still be required until the adhesive develops full strength. 
6.  Allow adequate curing time before applying heavy loads. 

Correct surface preparation significantly improves long-term bond performance.
