SPEC MIX® Adhered Veneer Polymer Modified Mortar is a blend of dry cementitious materials and masonry sand specifically designed to provide superior bond for precast, lightweight masonry veneer units to base surfaces. The final wall system will produce a non-load bearing, aesthetically pleasing exterior veneer or interior finish on concrete or masonry walls, stud walls or metal buildings. It is formulated to produce a cohesive material with consistent workability and optimal bond strength.
When installing all masonry units, especially precast and natural stone units for masonry veneer systems, mortar must be designed to match the properties of the stone for optimal shear bond strength and durability. SPEC MIX® Adhered Veneer Mortar products are specifically formulated and tested to ensure mortar to unit compatibility and superior workability.
When to Use Stone Veneer Mortars
Veneer Mortar is perfect for “scratch & base coat” or “joint grout” applications. These computer batched and pre blended products bond precast, lightweight masonry veneer units to solid base surfaces such as in-place masonry, concrete or galvanized, or expanded metal lath.
Consistency Guaranteed. Just Add Water
Available in natural gray or colored, SPEC MIX® Adhered Veneer Mortars are manufactured dry to eliminate the inconsistencies associated with field-proportioned mortars. Just add water to produce a mortar that provides total quality control, consistency and optimal bond strength in every batch.
Standard (SSVM) Versus Polymer Modified (PMSVM)
SPEC MIX® Adhered Veneer Mortar is available in both a Standard (SSVM) and Polymer modified version for natural stone (PMSVM) in 80 lb bags, 42 or 30 bags per pallet for job-site mixing, or in reusable 3,000 lb bulk bags for use with the various patented silo systems by SPEC MIX®
