SKY FIX O BLOCK
High Performance Light Weight Block Adhesive
SKY FIX O BLOCK adhesive is a factory prepared blend of carefully selected raw materials, Portland cement and well graded silica sand and polymers.
SKY FIX O BLOCK is a ready to mix, self curing contentious mortar for mounting and bonding AAC, CLC, hollow, concrete blocks and bricks. AAC Block Adhesive helps to speed up the build process and achieve the required insulation performance of AAC Blocks for the buildings.
AAC Block Adhesive replaces conventional mortar of 12-18 mm thickness with highly versatile 2.5-5 mm thickness.
Features and Benefits
Thin bed mortar with very high adhesion strength
Premixed and ready-to-use. Only water is to be mixed at site.
Thin layer application results in structure being compact
No water curing is required after application
Being premixed, it saves considerable time and labour
Eco-friendly product
Better bond than conventional cement based mortar
Excellent high strength & water retention properties
Economical as quantity of mortar is less than conventional Mortar.
Cost effective
Areas of Application
AAC blocks
Fly ash bricks
Cement blocks
Concrete hollow blocks etc.
Coverage
For best results, proper tools for mixing and application is advised which will result in higher coverage, savings in time and manpower.
Coverage is based on smoothness and evenness of the substrate, size of blocks used and the thickness of mortar used. A general guide line for coverage of mortar is given when used with 30% Water is added to powder
The thickness of adhesive considered is approx 2.5mm in the below calculation.
Technical Data
Packaging
40kg BOPP laminated bags.
Storage / Shelf life
SKY FIX O Block Adhesive should be stored in a dry place. Shelf life is 12 months.
Usage Instruction
Surface Preparation
The surface must be cleaned thoroughly, with no loose particles or dust.
The surface must be structurally sound, clean and free from dirt, oil, grease, efflorescence and any other contaminant which could impair the natural bond.
Surface defects such as cracks, holes or voids should be repaired prior to application.
Mixing
It is very important that AAC Block Adhesive is mixed with water properly and thoroughly before use.
It is advisable to use a mechanical stirrer for uniform and thorough mixing to save time, labour and for maximum work-ability.
Take a clean vessel/bucket, add water to it and put required quantity of AAC Block Adhesive in it.
Mixing Ratio - Clean potable water (approximately 25%-30%) of the weight of the powder is required to be mixed depending upon the thickness of the product to be applied. Water is to be incrementally added in stages to get a smooth, uniform and workable mix. Allow ample of time for initial mixing.
Ensure that no powder is left unmixed at the bottom of the vessel. The AAC Block Adhesive is now ready for application.
Precautions
Though it contains non-toxic materials but still care should be taken to avoid dust inhalation while mixing and handling. In case of contact with eyes or mouth, wash with plenty of clean water.
Keep it in a safe dry place which is out of reach of children.
Persons who are allergic to cement should take proper precautions before use.
