Hello everyone,

I would like to know how to decide which tile adhesive based on its tensile bond/pull off strength corresponds to which size of tile.
For example, if I would like to install 30*60cm wall tile, tensile bond/pull off strength of tile adhesive needs to be higher than kgf/cm^2 at least??

In 46 years I’ve not been asked for that actual information, but only the weight allowances for each tile size on the proposed substrate.
Skimmed plaster being the lowest tolerant.

Thank you for your reply. sometimes wondering why one tile adhesive is suitable for installing one particular tile siz

Like I won’t use tensile bond strength (e.g., 8 kgf/cm^2) of tile adhesive to install 30*60cm wall tile

I think you're getting to involved in detail .
Any c2 ft s1 or c2 te s1 will I'm sure be suitable for what you want .
If you want tensile pull off strengths you best of speaking to individual adhesive manufacturers . I'm sure this is not information they will have at their fingertips.
