Nottefix 1001
Description
NOTTEFIX1001 is a white or grey adhesive mortar used for adhesion of ceramics on concrete screed and plaster for 3-6 mm thickened application.
Usage Areas
• In indoor and outdoor spaces, on horizontal surfaces.
Characteristics
• It is resistant to freeze-thaw cycle.
• It has adhesion strength.
• It does not sag and does not slip.
• It can be used indoors and outdoors.
• It can be used indoors and outdoors in wet areas such as bathroom and kitchen.
Application Method
• Ensure that the surface to be applied is solid and clean.
• Any necessary surface repairs should be done at least 24 hours in advance, and the surface should be free of materials that may hinder mortar adhesion, such as oil, paint, and powder.
• If the surface temperature is above 30°C, moisten the surface and ensure that the surface moisture rate does not exceed 2% during application.
• For plaster or anhydrous surfaces, the moisture content should not exceed 0.5%.
• 20 kg powder material is added to ~5.50 LT water.
• 25 kg powder material is added to ~6.50 LT water.
• The required amount of water is placed in a clean bucket.
• The necessary powder product is added on it and it is mixed with a mixer until a homogeneous and lump-free mortar is obtained.
• After the material is rested for 5 minutes, it is ready to apply.
• With suitable notched trowel (U8X8 or U10X10), NOTTEFIX1001 is applied on the surface.
• The application is completed by leaving joints (joints should be 3mm in 5x5cm ceramic, 4mm in ceramic up to 15x15cm, 6-8 mm in ceramic over 15x15cm).
• NOTTEFIX1001 adhesive mortar has a 30-40 minute waiting time after application.
• Perform a finger test to check if the mortar is still usable as an adhesive.
• The thickness of NOTTEFIX1001 adhesive mortar should not exceed 6 mm.
• Avoid applying the material in temperatures below +5°C.
• Protect the material from rain, frost, and direct sunlight for the first 12 hours after application.
• Prepare the appropriate amount of material for the working time.
• Apply joints after 24 hours of ceramic application.
• Maintain a minimum joint width of 3 mm.
• Prime absorbent surfaces before plaster application.
