Mortar


E-Crete supplies thin-bed mortar and repair mortar, which are specifically manufactured for use with AAC blocks and lintels.  It comes in ready-to-mix powder form.  Just 1/16 inch mortar bed is needed to adhere the products.  This extremely thin joint prevents heat loss and speeds installation.  For best results, apply the thin-bed mortar with a notched trowel choosing a trowel the same width as the block.

Repair mortar is used to repair walls where cuts or channels were made to install wiring or plumbing.  Cover channels with repair mortar or fiberglass tape. Use the repair mortar prior to application of exterior or interior plasters.  When covering E-Crete with sheetrock or other sheathing materials, block patch may not be necessary.

Approximate mortar usage for blocks
40 - 8" blocks per bag
30 -10" blocks per bag
20 -12" blocks per bag
