Superb Block Joint Mortar
Superb Block Joint Mortar is AAC Block Adhesive. Due to the increasing use of Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (AAC) blocks in modern buildings and their highly absorbent nature, it becomes necessary to use an adhesive to secure these blocks. It holds porous blocks together far more effectively than the conventional fastening method.
It is intended to be mixed with water to generate a high-strength, thixotropic mortar for placing blocks or smoothing block work surfaces up to 10 mm thick.
The use of Superb Block Joint Mortar is an environmentally responsible practice that contributes to a cleaner work environment and causes minimal disruption to the adjacent area. This increases its significance in densely populated cities and sensitive areas. In contrast, conventional methods for producing, transporting, and applying plaster on the majority of construction sites are labor-intensive and prone to erratic, non-systematic practices. Consequently, the use of Superb Block Joint Mortar can prove to be more cost-effective in the long run, while ensuring that structures are constructed more quickly and with mortar that is backed by higher levels of quality assurance.
Suitable Substrates:
- Concrete Blocks
- Cement Mortar Blocks/Bricks
- Concrete Hollow Blocks
- Aerated Lightweight Blocks
- Fly Ash Bricks
Characteristics:
- Color : Grey
- Grain Size : 0 to 3 m.m
- Pot Life ; 1 hour
- Shelf Life : 4 months (subject to storage conditions)
- Basic Binder : Grey Portland Cement
- Available Packing : 40 Kgs Bag
- Coverage : Approx 28 to 30 sq.mtr. / bag of 40 kg. For 3 mm thickness, considering block size 600mmX 200mmX150mm (L X W X H)
Benefits:
- Uniform, consistent and assured quality of material.
- Free from organic materials and impurities of river sand.
- Faster and speedier construction.
- Reduced inventories, material handling and storage of raw materials at sites. Savings in labor requirements, labor costs and supervision of labor.
- Reduced wastage of materials.
- Longer pot life gives enhanced working time.
- Can be used for internal as well as external surfaces.
Application:
Apply a uniform layer of approximately 3 mm of Premium Block Joint. Place another block on the bed and use a rubber mallet to adjust the line level. (In practice, thickness refers to the distance between two surfaces to be joined. There should be no separation between two surfaces.)
- Ensure that the blocks are sound and free of any other scattered debris, such as oil.
- Before application, saturate the AAC blocks or the application area with water.
- Add Premium Block Joint to water and agitate until the mixture is lump-free and homogeneous, until it reaches a creamy consistency.
- Ensure that Blocks are aligned properly. Continue to remove access material after repairing the barriers.

Precautions :
- Keep it in a dry, covered location out of the reach of children.
- Those with a cement allergy should avoid using Premium Block Joint or take the necessary precautions.
- Superb Block Joint Mortar is non-toxic; however, care must be taken to prevent inhalation during Mortar preparation.
