DESCRIPTION

TILE-TITE™ lightweight pre-mixed roof tile mortar is factory blended to meet code requirements and to provide superior adhesion for the installation of all profiles of both concrete and clay roof tiles. It requires only the addition of water at the job-site and proper mixing.

USES

TILE-TITE™ is designed for use as the mortar component in mortar set roof tile systems. Its unique formulation and superior performance covers all types of tiles and all tile profiles. TILE-TITE ™ mortar will reduce the weight of mortar used on a roof up to 40% as compared to other mixes and will provide increased bond strength.

COMPONENTS

TILE-TITE™ consists of a blend of ASTM C91 mortar cement and ASTM C332 lightweight aggregate. The blend strictly conforms to South Florida Building Code requirements. It is approved under BCCD Product Control approval number 94-0614.01.

FEATURES & BENEFITS

	Tested and approved performance
	Greater bond strength to both roofing and tiles than sanded mixes
	Higher water holding capacity allows more time for development of bond to tile and allows more time for cement to hydrate properly
	Lightweight reduces dead load of tile systems on roof
	Easier and safer to handle, mix and place on roof
	Fewer bags required at jobsite
	Less lifting; one 40lb. bag of TILE-TITE™ is equal to over 140 lbs. of sanded mix
	TILE-TITE™ is more economical to use than sanded mixes

COVERAGE

One bag of TILE-TITE™ when properly mixed will yield approximately 1.18 cubic feet of mortar. The number of TILE-TITE™ bags required for one cubic yard
(27cu. Ft.) is 23 bags. The number of bags required per square (100 sq. ft.) will vary according to tile profile and amount of material used for each tile.

SURFACE PREPARATION

TILE-TITE™ should be applied over properly installed roofing membranes as governed by applicable code requirements. The roofing membranes must be fully intact and be free of any debris or foreign matter that would interfere with the bond between the roofing and the mortar.

MIXING

TILE-TITE™ comes pre-blended in 40 lb. Bags. First add about 5 gallons of potable water per bag into the mixer. With mixer turning, add TILE-TITE™ bags and mix until a homogeneous and good working consistency is reached, adding water as necessary. Mix a minimum of 5 minutes. When properly mixed TILE-TITE™ will appear slightly "wetter" than sanded mortar mixes.

APPLICATION

After TILE-TITE™ has been properly mixed it should be applied to a minimum of a full 10" masons trowel for each tile. Different tile will require different adhesion patterns. Tile should be placed on the TILE-TITE™ mortar within 5 minutes.

CLEAN UP

Clean all tools and equipment with water while still wet. Cured material can be removed mechanically or chemically.

STORAGE

TILE-TITE™ must be kept dry and stored in a dry place. Keep covered at the jobsite.

CAUTION

This product contains masonry cement and vermiculite. Inhalation can irritate the upper respiratory system. Wet cement can dry skin and cause caustic burns. Use gloves and wash thoroughly after handling. Dust masks and eye protection are recommended. KEEP OUT OF THE REACH OF CHILDREN.
