Using Mortar Mix

USES:
MORTAR MIX is a versatile product that can be used for general concrete repair, stucco & plaster repair, one-coat exterior plaster, mortar beds, underlayments, and formed work. MORTAR MIX is suitable for vertical and overhead applications.

COMPOSITION:
Rapid Set Mortar Mix is a high performance blend of Rapid Set hydraulic cement and quality sand. MORTAR MIX is non-metallic and no chlorides are added. Rapid Set Mortar Mix is similar in appearance to portland cement based mortars and may be applied using similar methods.

COLOR: [Brown]
The final color of MORTAR MIX may vary due to application techniques and environmental conditions.

LIMITATIONS:
Not intended for applications over 6” deep, for deeper sections use Rapid Set Concrete Mix. For overlay applications at least one test section should be prepared to evaluate the suitability of the materials and procedures.

TECHNICAL DATA:
Set Time:
  • ASTM C-191(Mod.) at 70ºF
  • Initial Set 15-minutes
  • Final Set 35-minutes
Compressive Strength:
  • ASTM C-109 Mod.
  • Age Compressive Strength
  • 1-hour* 2500-psi
  • 3-hour 4000 -psi
  • 1-day 5000 -psi
  • 7-day 6000 -psi
  • 28-day 7000-psi
Slant Shear:
  • ASTM C-882 Mod.
  • 1-day 1000-psi
  • 28-day 2200-psi

SURFACE PREPARATION:
For repairs, adjacent surfaces shall be clean, sound and free from any materials that may inhibit bond such as oil, asphalt, curing compounds, acids, dirt and loose debris. Roughen surface and remove all unsound material. Immediately prior to placement the repair surface shall be thoroughly saturated with no standing water.

MIXING:
The use of a power driven mechanical mixer, such as a mortar mixer or a drill mounted mixer, is recommended. Organize work so that all personnel and equipment are in place before mixing. Use clean Potable water. Rapid Set Mortar Mix may be mixed using 3 to 5 quarts of water per 55 lb. bag. Use less water to achieve higher strengths. Do NOT exceed 5 quarts of water per bag. For increased fluidity and workability use Rapid Set FLOW CONTROL plasticizing admixture from the Concrete Pharmacy. Place the desired quantity of mix water into the mixing container. While the mixer is running add Rapid Set Mortar Mix. Mix for the minimum amount of time required to achieve a lump-free, uniform consistency (usually 1 to 3 minutes). Do NOT re-temper.

PLACEMENT:
Rapid Set Mortar Mix may be placed using traditional methods. Organize work so that all personnel and equipment are ready before placement. Place, consolidate and screed quickly to allow for maximum finishing time. Do NOT wait for bleed water, apply final finish as soon as possible. Rapid Set Mortar Mix may be troweled, floated or texture finished. On flat work Do NOT install in layers, install full depth sections and progress horizontally. Do NOT install on frozen surfaces. Use a method of consolidation that eliminates air voids. To extend working time use Rapid Set SET CONTROL set retarding admixture.

CURING:
Water cure all Rapid Set Mortar Mix installations. Begin curing as soon as the surface has lost its moist sheen. Keep exposed surfaces wet for a minimum of 1 hour. When experiencing extended setting times, due to cold temperature or the use of retarder, longer cure times may be required. The objective of water curing shall be to maintain a continuously wet surface until the product has achieved sufficient strength.

TEMPERATURE:
Warm environmental and materials temperatures will reduce the working time of MORTAR MIX. To compensate for warm temperatures, keep material cool and use chilled mix water. Temperatures below 70ºF (21ºC) will decrease the rate of strength gain and MORTAR MIX should not be applied if surface or ambient temperature is below 45ºF (7.2ºC).

CAUTION:
MORTAR MIX contains cementitious materials and may cause irritation to lungs, eyes and skin. Avoid contact. Use only in adequate ventilation. Do NOT breath dust. Wet mixture may cause burns. Wear suitable gloves, eye protection and protective clothing. In case of skin contact, wash thoroughly with soap and water. In case of eye contact, flush immediately and repeatedly with large quantities of water and get prompt medical attention. In case of difficulty breathing, remove person to fresh air. If difficulty breathing persists, seek medical attention.
