Bastion Bond Breaker Waterproofing Joint Band is a 100mm wide, 10m long rubber reinforcing band for the most critical parts of a wet area waterproofing system, such as wall to floor junctions. It acts as the bond breaker in a liquid membrane system, so the membrane can cope with movement between two different surfaces instead of tearing at the join.About the bandThe band is made from a specialised grade of rubber that gives a rupture resistant seal and allows for the movement expected between abutting surfaces. It wets easily into the coats of a liquid membrane, which helps reinforce the finished membrane by improving puncture resistance and tensile strength. Because the band itself does the bond breaking, it removes the need for a separate bond breaker sealant at the joint, and installation is quick and straightforward. When used as part of a bond breaker system, it supports the requirements of AS 3740 (Waterproofing of domestic wet areas).Where to use itIndoors: wall to floor junctions in bathrooms, showers and laundries, and other critical joints in a wet area waterproofing system.Outdoors: Bastion's technical documentation lists the band as a bond breaker option within its membrane systems, but check the band's technical data sheet and your membrane's requirements before using it on external areas.It is designed to be embedded into Bastion liquid waterproofing membranes. Check your membrane's data sheet to confirm compatibility with other brands.How to use itMeasure and cut the band to suit each wall to floor junction. Apply a first coat of membrane, extending about 150mm up the wall and onto the floor, then embed the band into the wet membrane. Make sure the edges of the band are fully wetted out and there are no air bubbles behind it. Where lengths of band meet, overlap them by at least 50mm. If prefabricated corners are not being used, cut and fold the bottom leg of the band at corners and make sure it is fully bonded with the membrane. Then complete the membrane coats as set out in the membrane's data sheet.Important notesAlways follow the technical data sheet for the specific Bastion membrane you are using, including coat numbers and drying times. Surfaces should be properly prepared before the first coat goes on. Waterproofing in wet areas should be installed to the relevant Australian Standards and local requirements. If you are unsure, use a licensed waterproofer.Specifications Brand Bastion Product Bond Breaker Waterproofing Joint Band Size 100mm wide x 10m roll Pack 1 roll Material Rubber band Application Embedded by hand into wet liquid waterproofing membrane Minimum overlap at joins 50mm Standard Used as a bond breaker system to meet AS 3740 Use Wall/floor junctions and other movement areas in wet area waterproofing SafetyAlways read it and follow the instructions for the membrane you use with the band. Wear suitable protection when handling and installing it with liquid membranes, and store the roll clean and dry. Refer to the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for full details.

Bastion High-Bond Stud Adhesive 5.2 kg is a reliable stud adhesive for fixing plasterboard to timber or metal framing chosen for home repairs, trade work, and craft builds when you want a bond you can trust. Designed for Australian conditions, it balances strength, ease of use, and clean application so you can get professional results without special tools. The 5.2 kg pack is ideal for general work and keeps neatly in a toolbox or caddy. Why choose Bastion High-Bond for your next project Everyday jobs often involve mixed materials and imperfect surfaces. Bastion High-Bond Stud Adhesive 5.2 kg has been formulated to wet out well, grab quickly, and cure to a tough finish that resists movement and contact stress. It maintains bond integrity across common temperature swings and has dependable resistance to moisture and most household chemicals. Whether you are fixing, building, sealing, or assembling, this product gives you confidence from first squeeze through final set. Best for Plasterboard installation on studs Reducing screw count by bonding and fixing together Renovations where clean bond lines are important Suitable surfaces The adhesive works well on the following surface types when properly prepared: Timber studs Galvanised metal studs Plasterboard back surfaces Surface preparation Good preparation is the key to a long lasting repair. Remove loose material, dust, and grease. Wipe glossy areas with methylated spirits or an approved cleaner and allow to dry. On very smooth plastics and metals, lightly roughen with fine abrasive paper to give the adhesive a mechanical key. Dry fit parts first and mark alignment points so you can assemble accurately within the open time. If bonding porous materials, ensure both faces are dry and free of surface chalking. How to use Check fit and plan clamping. Do a trial run without adhesive so you know the order of steps. Apply a thin, continuous bead to one surface. For wide pieces, use a zig zag pattern to maximise wetting. Bring surfaces together within the stated open time of work within the wet time window to ensure transfer. Reseat once if needed, then hold steady. Apply even pressure using clamps, tape, weights, or temporary fasteners. Avoid squeezing all adhesive out of the joint. Allow to cure undisturbed. Initial handling strength will develop as the adhesive sets, with a full cure reached based on the chemistry described below. Cure profile Applies as a bead to studs. Press board into place and fix with screws while the adhesive is wet. Final cure occurs as the solvent or moisture leaves the bead. Temperature and environmental performance Use in dry, shaded conditions during lining work. Avoid application to very cold, sweating, or waterlogged surfaces. For outdoor use protect fresh bonds from rain until the skin has formed and the core has progressed in cure. Once fully cured, the bond resists normal weathering, splash water, and intermittent UV exposure based on the substrate and paint systems used. Clean up and finishing Remove fresh smears with a suitable cleaner. Trim cured squeeze out before finishing. When cured, excess can be carefully trimmed or sanded. For painted finishes, allow the adhesive to fully cure before priming. Test paint on a small area to confirm compatibility and drying behaviour. Coverage guide Coverage varies with bead size, surface porosity, and technique. As a general guide, a 3 mm bead yields approximately 10 to 12 linear meters per 310 mL cartridge. Smaller packs scale proportionally. Gaps, rough edges, and highly absorbent materials will reduce coverage. Plan an extra margin for offcuts and practice passes. Tips for best results Work within the recommended open time so the adhesive can properly wet the surfaces. Use light clamping pressure to keep parts aligned while maintaining a film thickness for strength. For very porous substrates, apply a thin precoat as a primer layer and allow it to tack before final assembly. Keep joint lines clean by masking edges with painter tape and removing it before the adhesive skins. Where movement or vibration is expected, design the joint to share load across a large area. Troubleshooting Poor adhesion: Check for oil, release agents, or surface dust. Reclean and lightly abrade if necessary. Slow cure: Low temperature and low humidity extend cure time. Maintain moderate conditions for best results. Visible squeeze out: Wipe fresh material with a suitable solvent and a soft cloth. Once cured, trim carefully. Bond line prints through paint: Allow a full cure, then prime and apply thin coats of paint, allowing proper drying between coats. Storage and shelf life Store closed and away from heat sources. Always check the pack for a lot code and use by guidance. Reseal immediately after use and store upright. Dispose of empty containers responsibly. Safety Read the label before use. Wear gloves when handling uncured material. Provide ventilation in enclosed areas. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Keep out of reach of children and pets. If sensitivity occurs, stop use and seek advice. Do not ingest. First aid directions and detailed handling information are available on the package and the safety data sheet. Frequently asked questions Can I bond dissimilar materials? Yes, provided each surface is clean and sound. Differences in expansion are managed by the adhesive film thickness and the inherent flexibility after cure. Is clamping required? Light clamping improves alignment and final strength. Excessive pressure can starve the joint of adhesive which reduces performance. Is the bond water resistant? Once cured the bond resists splash water and routine humidity. For permanent immersion choose an adhesive designed for underwater service and follow the manufacturer guidance. Planning your job Measure twice and cut once. Dry assemble parts so you can confirm squareness and alignment before adhesive is involved. Keep rags, clamps, and spacers ready. If you are new to the product, test on offcuts to get a feel for bead size and squeeze out. A consistent 1 to 2 mm bond line is a good starting point for most rigid materials. Thicker lines help when surfaces are uneven. Avoid starving the joint by pressing too hard without giving the adhesive a place to reside. Responsible use Choose an adhesive that suits the materials and the environment the finished piece will face. If a joint will be submerged, carry structural loads, or be exposed to strong chemicals, check the technical data sheet for specific guidance. Many general purpose products are perfect for day to day work, while specialised tasks call for a system designed and tested for that environment. Using the right product first saves time, money, and rework. Aftercare and maintenance Adhesive joints are remarkably strong when used correctly. Design repairs so that routine loads are shared across a generous area. Where heavy vibration is present, pair the adhesive bond with appropriate mechanical fasteners. Keep cleaning chemicals mild, and avoid abrasive pads on visible joints. If a bond will be repainted, choose flexible paint where movement is expected, and keep edges sealed to prevent dirt tracking along the bond line. Recycling and disposal Allow empty containers to cure before disposal. Check local council guidance for recycling of plastics and metal cartridges. Never pour uncured product into drains or soil. Wipe tools on scrap material and let residue harden before placing in general waste. Smart handling keeps the workspace clean and reduces environmental impact.
