Laticrete Strata Mat XT, Full Roll 150 sq. ft.

Laticrete Strata Mat XT Full Roll 150 sq. ft. STRATA_MAT XT is designed specifically for ceramic tile and dimension stone installations, serving as an uncoupling layer and vapor management layer that accommodates moisture from beneath the tile covering. STRATA_MAT XT performs all these functions while providing the requisite support/load distribution for the tile and stone covering. At 5/16" (7.9 mm) thick. STRATA_MAT XT helps to create an even transition between typical 1/4" to 3/8" (3 to 9 mm) thick tile and 3/4" (19 mm) thick hardwood flooring. STRATA_MAT XT will provide faster drying of the mortar, allowing for a shorter time to grout when using both modified or unmodified mortars and allowing you to use the appropriate mortar for the installation. Features Packaging Sizes: 150 ft2 roll 45" x 40" (13.9m2 - 1.1m x 12.2m ) Mortar Hydration Vents create a mechanical bond between the mat and adhesive mortar, allowing the mortar to cure faster, providing a stronger bond of tile for faster time to grout Allows for use of the appropriate mortar per industry standards Provides vapor management Eliminates transmission of in-plane substrate cracks of up to 1/8" (3 mm) Instant coverage verification allows the installer to see mortar coverage underneath the mat during installation without having to lift and verify Allows for easier floor layout as chalk lines are easily visible on the surface before tile installation Lightweight, easy to carry, and fast to install with standard tools It can be used under moisture-sensitive stone Suitable for interior non-industrial vehicular traffic applications over concrete substrates.
