A Dependable, Premixed Solution for Ceramic & Vitrified Tile Fixing
Starx 515 & 515 Max is a cement-based tile adhesive for wall and floor use, formulated for fixing ceramic and vitrified tiles on internal surfaces, with one 20kg bag covering 55–60 sq ft.
Starx 515 & 515 Max is a premixed, single-pack tile adhesive for wall and floor made from cement, high-grade polymers, natural minerals and selected aggregates, built for fixing ceramic and vitrified tiles on interior surfaces. Once mixed with water, it stays workable for up to an hour and sets fully within 24 hours at 30°C ambient, though this can shift slightly with humidity, temperature or airflow on site. One 20kg bag covers approximately 55–60 sq ft when applied with a 1/4" × 1/4" (6mm × 6mm) square-notch trowel at a 3mm bed thickness, and it bonds well with cement mortar beds, cement plaster and cement terrazzo. It requires no separate additives and can be applied by ordinary site labour with standard tools — no specialised training needed.
Built for fixing ceramic and vitrified tiles with confidence, this adhesive bonds far more securely than the old-school sand-cement method, so you don't end up dealing with hollow spots, cracked tiles, or tiles coming loose after a few months.
Meant for internal floor and wall tiling work — think homes, offices, showrooms, hotel interiors, and pretty much any indoor space where you need something you can rely on.
Use it on cement mortar beds, cement plaster, and cement terrazzo — the surfaces you'll come across on most construction sites.
One 20 kg bag typically covers 55–60 sq ft when applied with a 1/4" × 1/4" (6mm × 6mm) square-notch trowel at a 3 mm bed thickness. That means less material wasted and a better return on every bag.
Builders, contractors, and homeowners keep choosing this adhesive for their interior tiling work because it simply performs — batch after batch, project after project.
Our 515 & 515 Max is loaded with carefully chosen polymers that boost flexibility, water resistance, and long-term bond strength — which is exactly why it's held up as one of the more dependable choices on the market.
A lot of adhesives are made for the floor alone. This one bonds equally well on vertical and horizontal surfaces, so you don't need to buy or stock two separate products for one tiling job.
You get roughly an hour of working time after mixing to get the alignment right, and it's fully set within 24 hours at 30°C — quick enough to keep the project moving without cutting corners on the bond.
You don't need a specialist crew to apply it. Ordinary site labour can mix and lay this adhesive with standard tools, which keeps both the cost and the timeline of the job in check.
The strong adhesion this formula offers means you won't be dealing with hollow tiles, lifting edges, or debonding a few months down the line — just a wall and floor surface that stays put.
Starx Product is a leading Adhesive Manufacturer, and every 20kg bag of our 515 & 515 Max goes through the same consistent quality checks before it reaches contractors and homeowners.

Sand-cement mortar has been the go-to for tile fixing for decades, but it comes with its own headaches. We designed the 515 & 515 Max to fix exactly those problems. Here's what changes when you switch:
A quick step-by-step reference for getting the best results with Starx 515 & 515 Max on your interior floor and wall tiling work.
| Step | Action | Details | Suitable |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Get the Surface Ready | Clean the surface well — no dust, grease, loose particles or standing water — before you apply the adhesive. | |
| 2 | Mix It Up | Add the 515 adhesive powder to clean water and mix until you get a smooth, lump-free paste. Use it within an hour of mixing. | |
| 3 | Spread It On | Apply the adhesive evenly on the floor or wall using a 6mm × 6mm square-notch trowel to keep the bed thickness at around 3 mm. | |
| 4 | Set the Tiles | Press ceramic or vitrified tiles firmly into the adhesive bed, and use a rubber mallet to make sure they sit evenly with full contact. | |
| 5 | Fine-Tune the Layout | You've got about an hour of pot life to straighten out alignment and spacing before the adhesive starts to set. | |
| 6 | Let It Set | Leave the tiles undisturbed for 24 hours at around 30°C. Keep in mind that temperature, humidity, and wind can shift this timing a bit. | |
| 7 | Finish with Grouting | Once the adhesive has fully set, fill in the tile joints with Starx Tile Grout for a neat, finished look. | |
| — | Not for Outdoor Use | This 515 & 515 Max grade is meant for internal use only. For outdoor or heavy-duty jobs, go with Starx 525, 535, or 545 instead. |
