Laticrete Blue 92 Anti-Fracture Membrane 5 Gallon Liquid

Laticrete Blue 92 Anti-Fracture Membrane 5 Gallon Liquid

A two-part system consists of liquid rubber and reinforcing fabric. When cured, it forms a highly flexible membrane. While the thin-bed method of tile installation provides many advantages, this method can be affected by problems with shrinkage cracking in concrete and other substrates. Cracks can telegraph through the tile or grout joints. To reduce or eliminate cracks in tile work, a flexible membrane should be applied to the cracked substrate before the installation of ceramic tile, marble, and stone

Features

• Reduces crack transmission in ceramic tile, thin brick, marble, and stone installed using the thin-set method. It is also ideal for use under cement-based or resin Terrazzo
• Inhibits the growth of stain-causing mold and mildew with Microban antimicrobial protection
• Thin adds no appreciable thickness to floor construction; install tile with LATICRETE Polymer Fortified Thin-Set Mortar directly to the cured membrane
• “Extra Heavy Service” rating per TCNA performance levels (RE: ASTM C627 Robinson Floor Test)
• Easy to Apply. It goes on quickly with a paintbrush or roller; no mixing or special equipment is required
• Fast Cure dries in a few hours to receive finished surfacing
• Easy Cleanup cleans with water while fresh
• Safe, no solvents or harsh fumes, non-flammable

Uses

• For interior or exterior use on floors and walls, whenever hairline cracking or “spider-webbing” occurs in the substrate
• For use over shrinkage and other non-structural cracks up to 1/8" (3 mm)
• Typical applications are over concrete slabs (suspended or on grade) in malls, lobbies, and residential applications under ceramic tile, marble, and stone
• Use to cover joints in plywood underlayments, cement backer boards, and concrete masonry on floors and walls
• Also, use over concrete floors and underlayments with radiant heating systems

Coverage

• Approximately 300 sq ft. (28 sq m) at 20 mil thickness per complete unit
• Approximately 75 linear ft. (23 linear m) per crack suppression kit
