DESCRIPTION
Ultraflex 2 is a professional-grade, single-component, high-performance,
polymer-modified thin-set mortar for interior and exterior installations of
ceramic, porcelain and dimensional natural-stone tile. This mortar has a
high content of unique dry polymer, resulting in excellent adhesion to the
substrate and tile. Ultraflex 2 meets or exceeds ANSI A118.4 and ANSI A118.11
requirements when mixed with water. Ultraflex 2 can be used for interior and
exterior installations of tile in most residential floor and wall applications.
In commercial applications, use on interior floor and wall installations and
exterior floors.
