Cement-based tile adhesive doesn't bond reliably to metal, drywall, or other non-porous substrates — which is exactly the gap PUA 212 fills. MYK Laticrete PUA 212 is a two-component, modified polyurethane thin-set adhesive engineered for tiling applications where conventional cement-based adhesives fail to adhere, available in 4kg and 8kg packs.

The PU formulation's high flexibility is the second reason it's specified over cement adhesive on certain substrates — it absorbs structural movement, thermal expansion, and vibration that would crack a rigid cement bond. This makes it the correct choice not just for non-porous surfaces but also for installations where the substrate itself moves slightly over time, such as engineered panels or metal-framed partitions.

Suitable for residential and commercial tiling on metal, drywall, concrete, and other engineered substrates. GST invoice available. Delivered all over India, dispatched from Bengaluru within 24 hours on working days.

Why won't standard cement-based tile adhesive work on metal or drywall substrates?
Cement-based adhesives rely on porosity and mechanical key to bond, which non-porous surfaces like metal don't provide, and drywall lacks the structural rigidity cement adhesive assumes. PUA 212's polyurethane chemistry bonds through adhesion rather than porosity, making it effective on these substrates where cement-based products fail.

What does the high flexibility of PUA 212 protect against?
The flexible PU bond absorbs structural movement, thermal expansion, and vibration in the substrate without transferring stress to the tile. This prevents the tile cracking or debonding that occurs when a rigid cement-based adhesive is used on a substrate that moves slightly over time.
