Product description

Cement based, frostproof, water resistant and polymer strengthened white tile adhesive in low dust powder form.

Application areas

For mounting ceramic tiles, clinker and natural stone, inside and outside, in wet and dry areas. Suitable for heated floor and thin translucent tiles, glass mosaic, light marble and other similar tiles.

Types of substrate

Stable floors and walls with moderate tension/deformation as rendered/plastered bricks, block walls, gypsum plates, concrete elements and light concrete elements with moderate shrinkage, movements and deformation.

Pre-treatment of substrate

Ensure substrate has carrying capacity, is stable and coherent, cleaned for dust, grease and cement laitance. The substrate must be so dry that 4180 primer can be absorbed in the surface.

Absorbent substrates shall be primed with 4180 primer and in wet rooms water tightened according to rules laid down in mira`s installation instructions for wet rooms.

Application

Mix 25 kg powder with 6,25 - 7 l clean water to a lump free mortar and the mix is ready for use. For mixing it is recommendable to use a mixing paddle. The powder, water and substrate shall be within the recommended working temperature.

The adhesive can be applied within approx. 6 hours after mixing. Ensure tiles are fixed quickly to avoid formation of skin on adhesive surface.

3110 unifix shall be spread on the substrate with a notched trowel. First spread the adhesive with the smooth side and then draw the notched side through the mortar. Follow the recommendation for correct choice of tooth size for tile type and substrate.

The tiles are pressed/twisted in place in the wet adhesive. Ensure frequently that the backside of the tile is fully covered.

Areas above 36m² and areas of a length above 8 m shall normally be divided in areas with expansion joints across the construction.

Dependent on absorbing capacity of tiles and room temperature tiling is ready to be grouted after approx. 10 hours for walls and 18 hours for floors.

Working environment

The product contains cement. Working environment rules for cement must be followed.

3110 unifix is based on white cement containing a natural low content of chrome(VI) therefore the limiting value of max. 2mg/kg is always kept.
