Fireplace Mortar is available in 10.1 oz (299 ml) tubes.
YIELD
Approximately 100 lineal ft. (30.5 M) for a 1/8” (3 mm) diameter
bead
INSTALLATION
SURFACE PREPARATION
Clean all dust, soot, rust, and loose particles from the crack before
filling. Dampen the area to be repaired thoroughly.
APPLICATION
Cut the tip of the tube at an angle to make a 1/8” (3 mm) opening.
Apply by pushing tube tip over the surface and squeezing a bead of
Fireplace Mortar into the crack. Fireplace Mortar can be tooled with a
wet trowel to match the existing surface texture within 5 minutes of
application. Clean all tools with water immediately after use. Protect
newly placed material from direct water contact until exposed to fire.
Air dry placed material for 1 to 30 days before exposing to fire. Apply
no thicker than 1/8” (3 mm) in one application. For deeper cracks,
apply multiple layers. Allow each layer to dry for 24 hours prior to
applying additional material. Exposing to fire must occur within 30
days of application or it will lose adhesion.
FIRE EXPOSURE
Air dry for 1 to 30 days. The product must be tack-free. Start a low
fire, keeping the temperature below 212
o
F (100
o
C) until the mortar
has dried thoroughly, typically one to four hours. Once dry, increase
the heat to 500
o
F (260
o
C) for final curing; heat for 1-4 hours or more.
Limitations: Not for exterior use. Protect from water until fire-cured
at 500
o
F (260
o
C). Air and surface temperature must be above
40
o
F(4
o
C) and below 100
o
F (38
o
C) for proper application. Store
between 33
o
F (1
o
C) and 90
o
F (27
o
C) for maximum shelf life.
