Cementitious Fibre Reinforced Mortar for the Sika Carbodur Grid 'M' (Masonry) System

Sika MonoTop-3260 Grid is a one-part, cementitious fibre reinforced surface / finishing mortar. It is designed to be used in combination with the Sika CarboDur-300 Grid as part of the Sika CarboDur Grid System, which provides an efficient solution to consolidate and strengthen masonry.

Good adhesion to brick, stone and cohesive porous substrates (excluding plaster, gypsum, etc.).
Sulphate and sea water resistant.
Applied up to 40 mm thick in one layer on vertical and horizontal applications.
Non-sag overhead at maximum thickness.
Good workability.
Hand and machine application (wet spray technique).
Ready to mix with water.

Usage

Sika MonoTop-3260 Grid may only be used by experienced and trained professionals. A Component of the Sika CarboDur Grid System designed to:

Reinforce masonry in civil engineering structures (e.g. aqueducts, sewage works, water tanks, etc.) or residential buildings.
Retain masonry structures in the case of cyclic load and postpone the risk of collapse in case of earthquakes.
Distribute stresses generated by movement of the structure to avoid cracks and detachment of the mortar.
Improve the connection between masonry panels and reinforced concrete frames.
Patch repair, repair bed joints on brick, stone masonry, block masonry and masonry curtain walls.

Advantages

Good adhesion to brick, stone and cohesive porous substrates (excluding plaster, gypsum, etc.).
Sulphate and sea water resistant.
Applied up to 40 mm thick in one layer on vertical and horizontal applications.
Non-sag overhead at maximum thickness.
Good workability.
Hand and machine application (wet spray technique).
Ready to mix with water.
