Thin-bed Mortar
ACICO thin-bed mortar (glue) is an adhesive mortar for quick and firm laying of ACICO blocks with thin joints.
It is used to bind ACICO blocks into masonry with high stability. ACICO glue is manufactured from fine sand, cement and some adhesives, resulting in good bonding properties. The thickness of the joints is 1-2 mm, thus preserving the unique thermal-insulation qualities.
Preparation:Prepare ACICO glue in a clean container (pail, trough) by mixing the mortar with clean water and using the ACICO stirrer, driven by a slow-speed drilling machine. Mix thoroughly until a homogeneous creamy paste is obtained. The glue must flow easily through the teeth of the plane-block trowel over the full surface.
Prepare the quantity that is enough for not more than two hours. (in the summer season for not more than one hour).
Quantities required per m3 masonry:For normal block formats 62.5 cm x 25 cm, approximately 12-13 kg/m3 is needed. For partition wall block formats 62.5cm x 50cm approximately 6-8 kg/m3 is required.
The consumption rate can be easily reached by using block trowel of the right dimension as per the wall thickness.
