   Home : PRODUCTS : Thin set mortars : CEMIX Mortar Cemix
CEMIX Mortar is an adhesive mortar that comes in powder form. CEMIX Mortar is specially formulated out of a Portland cement base with select aggregates and special chemical additives for installing ceramic, marble, and natural stone tiles to concrete and cement surfaces. Can be used for installations on unlevel surfaces with up to ¾” (20 mm) difference. CEMIX Mortar, when mixed with water, meets and exceeds the ANSI A 118.1.



Uses and advantages
  • For installation of non-vitreous ceramic, clay, and natural stone tiles. For installations to completely cured concrete (at least 28 days old), prefabricated cement panels, and cement-sand leveling layers.
  • Can be applied in thick coats of up to a 1” (25 mm) thickness.
  • Available in grey and White. The white adhesive is ideal for using with translucent marble. For installations on treated triply wood (only in interiors), add CEMIX Latex 620, in place of water, to reinforce the mixture.
  • Can be used for adhering tiles to walls.
  • Use the correct notched trowel.
