Anti-Fracture Mat

Tilemaster Uncoupling / Decoupling Mat is an anti-fracture / uncoupling matting designed for use on floor tile installations where there is a need to absorb and accommodate limited lateral movement.

Tilemaster Anti-Fracture Mat is an uncoupling / decoupling mat designed for use on floor tile installations to prevent substrate lateral movement from cracking the tiled finish. Tilemaster Anti-Fracture Mat can be used in a wide range of applications to absorb lateral movement from substrates and to bridge stress / shrinkage cracking in substrates to prevent such movement being transferred to the tiled finish. The matting can be used when installing a large variety of tiles including ceramic, porcelain and natural stone tiles. Tilemaster Anti-Fracture Mat is ideal for domestic and commercial applications in light, medium and heavy duty environments.

Preparation

Primers are designed to stabilise and seal the substrate prior to applying one of the Tilemaster cement based products.  Primers increase the adhesion of cement based products.

Flexible additives are used to enhance the performance of Tilemaster cement based products.  When added to tile adhesive and/or grout, the flexible additive improves the products adhesion, flexibility and durability. Tilemaster Prime + Grip is a ready mixed, ready to use, rapid drying primer that can be used on both absorbent and non-absorbent substrates. Tilemaster Prime + Grip provides a textured "+ Grip" surface which gives an excellent bonding surface for Tilemaster tile adhesives and self-levelling compounds. Tilemaster Prime + Grip gives added confidence when tiling and/or self-levelling directly onto smooth, non-absorbent and absorbent surfaces due to its excellent bond enhancing properties. Tilemaster Prime + Grip is rapid drying and it can be tiled or levelled over after as little as 15 minutes. Tilemaster Prime + Grip is suitable for use internally and externally. Tilemaster Prime + Grip is our recommended primer to be used in conjunction with Tilemaster FAST One Coat DPM.

Primeplus is a highly advanced styrene butadiene polymer designed to prime, stabilise and seal substrates prior to the application of Tilemaster tile adhesives and self levelling compounds. Primeplus increases the adhesion and prolongs the working time of tile adhesives and self levelling compounds. Primeplus can be used on both absorbent and non-absorbent surfaces, internally and externally
