Schluter Ditra Matting Adhesive

The substrate must be even and load bearing.

Schluter ditra matting adhesive. In general we don t recommend the use of modified thin set mortar to set tile over the membranes because these mortars must air dry to cure properly. Schlüter ditra heat is a polypropylene membrane with a cut back stud structure and an anchoring fleece laminated on the underside. Apply the adhesive using a 3 x 3 mm or 4 x 4 mm notched trowel. Made of polyethylene ditra and ditra xl serve as a waterproofing layer that protects moisture sensitive substrates such as plywood osb.

Schluter ditra matting schluter ditra matting is one of the most popular types of under tile decoupling systems in europe from leading brand schluter systems. Since ditra is impervious it does not deprive the mortar of its moisture. Open time of the bonding adhesive. Schluter ditra and ditra xl are specifically designed for ceramic and stone tile installations ditra and ditra xl provide uncoupling to prevent cracked tile and grout.

Individual courses of schlüter ditra 25 are cut to size. The adhesive must bond to the substrate and mechanically anchor the fleece on the underside of the schlüter ditra 25 matting. Verify the compatibility of all materials prior to installation. Uncoupling waterproofing vapor management and support to ensure a long lasting installation.

For timber substrates we recommend using ardex af200 plus uncoupling matting adhesive this is a purpose made high performance adhesive for fixing fleece backed uncoupling membranes. It is a universal substrate for tile coverings which serves as an uncoupling layer bonded waterproofing and moisture vapour barrier and is designed for the attachment of the matching heating cables of the system for floor heating. This allows the cement to properly hydrate resulting in a strong dense bond coat. The stud structure of ditra heat is specifically designed to allow for the easy installation of ditra heat e hk heating cables.

Apply the adhesive using a 3 x 3 mm or 4 x 4 mm notched trowel. The anchoring fleece on the underside of schlüter ditra 25 must be fully engaged in the adhesive to provide a mechanical bond to the substrate. Schluter ditra matting each cavity is cut back in a dovetail configuration and there is an anchoring fleece laminated to the underside of the membrane for enhanced adhesion. Schluter ditra heat integrates customizable comfortable electric floor warming with the functions associated with ditra.

To bond schluter ditra matting use a bonding adhesive that is appropriate for the substrate.
