PROLASTIC 8500/6500 MORTAR AND LATEX, FOR OPTIMAL PERFORMANCE
FLEXIBILITY
A quality mortar must have certain characteristics. It must, among other things, provide very good performances in terms of adhesion, strength and flexibility. This flexibility will allow the mortar to resist freeze/thaw cycles. Combined use of 8500 and 6500 latex provides greater flexibility for outdoor installations. A flexible mortar also responds better to the stress created by the on/off cycles of thermostats when installed on in-floor heating. The combined use of 8500 and 6500 latex therefore offers the best possible guarantee on in-floor heating.
OUT DOOR INSTALLATION
First, it is very important to specify that for outdoor installations, TTMAC standards state that the temperature must reach a minimum of 12°C* throughout the whole curing period of 28 days. In addition, during hot summer days, it is best not to do an installation when the sun is shining directly on the mortar. The mortar will dry faster on the surface, decreasing open drying time, which could limit its adhesion.
* Recommendations may differ for a fast-setting mortar.
