The combination between the tesa® Powerstrip and polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP) and polytetrafluorethylene (PTFE) will not form a stable compound and won´t hold.

Easy attachment and removal in six steps

Note: Please be sure to also look at the assembly instructions, which can be found in the respective product packaging. In individual cases, there may be slight differences in the assembly.

EASY-ON - easy to attach:

01Clean the surface very thoroughly

Once you have found the right place for mounting, you should clean this area intensively. Only on surfaces that are free of dust, grease, lime and dry will the combination of adhesive mass and adapter achieve maximum holding power.

Use a clean, soft cloth for basic cleaning. Please do not use any non-stick cleaning agents or cleaners containing silicone, as these substances impair the adhesive effect. After basic cleaning, clean with rubbing alcohol. If a cleaning cloth is included with your accessory, please use it.

If you want to play it safe, wipe the area again with a dry, soft and clean cloth.

02Stick the adapter to the wall

In our assortment you will find various adapters to properly mount the bathroom accessories. Among other things, they are used for fixing toilet paper holders, toilet brush sets, towel hooks and soap dispensers.

All adapters are similar in design and work on the same principle: first remove the protective film of the adhesive ring. Press the adapter firmly to the surface for a few seconds. If you are mounting a bathroom accessory with two adapters, make sure that the distance between the adapters is correct and they are aligned correctly.

Info: Be careful not to touch the adhesive surface of the adapter with your fingers. Otherwise, new grease could get onto the surface and reduce the load-bearing capacity.

03Fill the adapter with the adhesive

Now hold the applicator in the larger opening of the adapter. Now carefully squeeze the adhesive out of the applicator and fill the ring with the adhesive mass until it appears at the smaller hole of the adapter.

Important: Please do not press or touch the adapter now! Cavities could be created that impair the holding force.

04Let the glue cure

To ensure maximum holding power, please wait 12 hours. The adhesive is then completely cured.
If adhesive mass protrudes from the sides of the adapter, you can carefully remove it.

What the tesa® Power.Kit is made of:

Let’s take a detailed look at the tesa® Power.Kit. What kind of components are included? How do they work together to conveniently combine reliable hold and easy removal?

Adapter

The adapter consists of a sinter-metal-plate (SMT) with 95% cooper, the rest being made of tin and wax. The SMT plate is permeable for air allowing shorter curing time. Furthermore the adhesive ring provides a border for the glue for easy pre-fixation. Finally the adapter comes with a massive zamac alloy ring to ensure easy application for the bathroom accessory.

Glue

the Power.Kit Glue is based on Silyl Modified Polymer. It requires a high amount of humidity for its chemical hardening process, which in turn means the surface in your bathroom are the best environment for it.
