• Bag Size: 40 kg

• Coverage for 3mm thickness under Standard condition: 120 – 145 sq.ft / 40 kg bag

Product Description

Ramco Block Fix (BFM1) is a thin-joint mortar with high strength attributes for firmly laying AAC blocks. It is a factory mixed mortar constituting Portland cement, graded sand, blended with polymer additives. Even at 3 mm thickness it imparts high strength and water retention properties.

As the product is being manufactured in a controlled environment, the output quality is consistent across batches. For best results the blocks should be cleaned using a brush to remove any dust or loose particles. In order to minimize the suction of water wet the blocks prior to using Ramco Block Fix for jointing. Free water on the surface should be allowed to disperse before applying the mortar.

Specification

Portland cement, graded sand, special additives for better water retention, bonding, flowability and workability.

Consumption

Demand of water: 8 – 10 Liters per 40 kg bag. 1 bag of 40 kg covers an area of 120 – 145 sq.ft @ 3 mm thickness under ideal conditions.

Features and Benefits

• Prepared with proprietary technology with polymers and binders ensuring high bond strength leading to superior masonry strength and excellent load-bearing capacity

• Recommended mortar for Aerated lightweight blocks

• Improved adhesion between blocks

• Excellent workability

• Flexible, shock, and impact-resistant

• Improved compressive and tensile adhesion strength

• Easy to use

• Better value proposition as compared to conventional mortars

• Self-curing

• High Tensile Adhesion Strength at Joints

Cost Effectiveness

Reduced construction timelines also reduces the direct labour costs. The volume of dry mix mortar is considerably less than traditional mortar giving a distinct cost advantages. A 40 kg bag of Ramco Block Fix covers an area of 120 – 145 sq.ft for a 3 mm thickness bed. Logistical complexity of the product is reduced as the material is premixed and requires only water addition at site. Mortar thickness of 3mm is sufficient to bind the blocks together. It is self-curing.

Packing / Storage and Shelf Life

The product is available in 40 kg bags. Has a shelf life of 6 months from the date of manufacture, when stored in dry conditions.
