Traditerm^® Malla de Refuerzo

Technical Caracteristics

Fiberglass threads with anti-alkaline treatment.

Advantages and Uses

• Easy to apply.
• Fire resistant.
• Resistant to cracking.
• Excellent tensile strength.
• Good flexibility.
• High resistance to shock.
• Reinforcement of skirting boards (baseboards) and those areas of the TRADITERM® external thermal insulation system exposed to direct impact.

Application Procedure

TRADITERM® Reinforcing Mesh, has to be combined with TRADITERM® Mesh.

• In the area to be reinforced, apply a coat of TRADITERM® mortar to the insulation panel and then comb with a notched trowel.
• Spread out the TRADITERM® Reinforcing Mesh, unrolling the roll horizontally onto the combed surface and crush the grooves by pressing with a trowel. Cover the mesh with the TRADITERM® mortar which protrudes. Although the mesh is covered, its grids should still be visible. This coat should have a thickness of 1.5 – 2 mm.
• TRADITERM® Reinforcing Mesh is not overlapped at joins between meshes.
• Once the surface obtained is dry, apply a new coat of TRADITERM® mortar to it and then comb with a notched trowel.
• Unroll the TRADITERM® Mesh onto the combed surface from top to bottom and crush the grooves by pressing with a trowel. Cover the mesh with the TRADITERM® mortar which protrudes. Although the mesh is covered, its grids should still be visible. This coat should have a thickness of 1.5 – 2 mm.
• Joins between meshes should be overlapped by a minimum of 10 cm.
• Once this reinforced coat has obtained some resistance, a new 1.5 – 2 mm coat of TRADITERM® mortar is applied to hide the grids of the mesh and finish the coated surface.

Recommendations

• Control the minimum thicknesses of TRADITERM® mortar required to apply the mesh.
• Handling this product does not require special care, although it may cause some irritation to more sensitive skin. If this happens, wash with plenty of cold water and soap.

Packaging and Storage

Notas

The information and instructions in this datasheet are based on our current tests and technical knowledge. They are intended as general guidance and do not constitute a binding commitment by PIDILITEPUMA MEA CHEMICALS LLC. It is the sole responsibility of the user to verify, prior to use, that the product is suitable for the intended application and to ensure that it is applied correctly and in accordance with applicable regulations and good industry practice.

PIDILITEPUMA MEA CHEMICALS LLC cannot control how its products are applied on site throughout the entire project and therefore cannot accept responsibility for their application by contractors or other parties involved in the execution of the work. Support visits to the jobsite by our technical staff do not change that. Our responsibility is limited exclusively to defects that can be directly attributed to the supplied products, whether used individually or as part of a system, caused by manufacturing defects.

It is the responsibility of the project designer, site manager, contractor, or other relevant professionals to ensure that the selected products are appropriate for the specific project, taking into account their properties, the substrate, site conditions, and any existing issues.

In the event of a claim, the original packaging must be provided to ensure proper product traceability.

Any performance values stated for PIDILITEPUMA MEA CHEMICALS LLC products or construction solutions, whether in UNE standards or other applicable standards, are based solely on the specific test conditions defined in those standards (such as substrate type, temperature, and humidity). These values may not apply to situations where products are tested or used under different conditions.
