Description
LATICRETE 3701 Fortified Mortar Bed is a polymer-fortified blend of high-grade portland cement, carefully selected polymers, and engineered graded aggregates. Specially designed to eliminate the need for liquid latex admixtures, this pre-blended formula requires only the addition of clean water to yield an exceptionally strong, thick-bed mortar. It serves as an approved high-performance substitute for traditional 226 Thick Bed Mortar when mixed with 3701 Mortar Admix, significantly simplifying job site operations.
- Polymer Fortified: Factory-blended polymers eliminate the need for expensive liquid latex additives—just add water.
- Premixed Convenience: Pre-blended ingredients guarantee consistency across batches and eliminate job site powder measurement errors.
- Time & Cost Economical: Speeds up installation workflows, reducing overall job site labor costs.
- High-Strength Formula: Engineered for demanding structural requirements, providing superior compressive performance over standard mortars.
- Pumpable Consistency: Perfectly suited for large-scale masonry veneer and vertical facade projects utilizing mortar pumps.
- Code Compliant: Engineered to meet and exceed strict ASTM C270 standard specifications.
- Versatile Coating Substitute: Can be confidently used as a high-durability scratch or finish coat in place of traditional Type S or Type N mortars.
- Ramping, Pitching & Feather-Edging: Ideal for creating sloped beds; when combined with a slurry bond coat of LATICRETE 254 Platinum, it can be applied seamlessly down to a feather edge.
