TRADE MORTAR 20 kg
Trade Mortar by Cement Australia is a factory‑blended M4‑rated bricklaying mortar crafted to meet AS 3700 standards. Supplied in 20 kg bags, it ensures reliable strength, consistent colour, and quality assurance across every batch.
Highlights & Advantages
- Pre‑blended consistency: Precise mix of cement, sand and additives anchored in factory control, eliminating site‑based batching errors or variable moisture.
- Efficiency: Simply add water, mix, and use—no additional materials needed.
- Coverage: Each 20 kg bag lays approximately 20 house bricks or 10 masonry blocks, assuming 10 mm mortar joints.
Applications
Ideal for:
- Bricklaying repairs and new brickwork
- Stonework and blockwork
- Pipe fittings and general-purpose mortar tasks
Mixing & Work Time
- Add clean water gradually to a mixer or wheelbarrow; follow the bag instructions to reach a workable consistency.
- Only mix what can be used within one hour—adding water later (re-tempering) weakens the mortar.
- Apply with a trowel and wait until mortar is touch-dry before raking or finishing joints.
