  • Glass Mosaic Tb136
    Glass Mosaic Installation Technical Bulletin Category: Tiling Keywords: Glass Mosaic, Tile, Thin Set, Grout Glass mosaics bring a beautiful look to any surface. Glass Mosaics come in different types, sizes, colors and patterns and are used in residential and commercial projects on backsplashes above sink, bathrooms, showers, and fireplaces. There are 3 different types of glass tile; cast glass tile, fused glass tile, and low- temperature-coated glass tile as per ANSI A137.2 standard. Typically glass mosaics are larger than ¾”x ¾” and smaller than 3”x3”. Many questions have come up on which setting materials to use for a long lasting glass mosaic installation. In this technical bulletin will help you to select the appropriate Merkrete products for setting glass mosaics. Considerations to take before installing glass mosaics: Substrates All substrates should be plumb and true, substrate deviation should not exceed 1/8” in 10’ or 1/16 in 3’. Substrate preparation should be completed following ANSI A108 AN-2 “General Requirements for Sub- surfaces. Substrate should be dry, clean and free from oil, grease, wax, paint, old adhesives, sealers and curing compounds. Any contaminates which inhibit proper bond must be removed. Recommendation for setting: Merkrete Integra - Is a non-abrasive all-in-one adhesive and grout for glass mosaics installations on walls and floors. Integra was developed especially for the installation of mosaics and glass tile of all shapes and sizes with no concerns about thin set color bleed through because the adhesive and the grout are the same color. Merkrete Integra is available in 8 different colors.

  • Glass Tile Mortar
    Glass Tile Premium Thin-Set Mortar Frequently Asked Questions STANDARDS Question: Is there a standard for installing glass tile? Answer: Yes, because glass tiles have performance and aesthetic properties that differ from ceramic and porcelain tiles, a new standard was adopted beginning in late 2011. ANSI A137.2 defines glass tile types and establishes aesthetic and performance standards for each type. Question: What are the primary types of glass tile? Answer: There are three primary types of glass tiles; cast glass, fused glass and low-temperature-coated glass. Each type is available as large format, mosaic, and miniature mosaic tiles. Question: What size glass tile determines large format and mosaic? Answer: Glass tiles with an overall area greater than 8.95 square inches and less than or equal to 576 square inches (cast tiles must be less than or equal to 144 square inches). Mosaic glass tiles are greater than 0.68 and less than or equal to 8.95 square inches. Miniature mosaic glass tiles are less than or equal to 0.68 square inches. Question: Are there minimum bond strengths for glass tile installations? Answers: Yes, since glass tiles are used in a variety of installation environments including walls, pools, entryways and fountains, ANSI A137.2 sets minimum bond strength requirements, which are evaluated in dry and submerged testing. Mortars should be a high-performance mortar with bond strength greater than 400 psi to porcelain and greater than 150 psi to glass tiles. Question: Do glass tile installations require a special thin-set or adhesive? Answer: Glass tiles require the use of a high performance (ANSI 118.4 or better) polymer modified thin-set mortar.
