Mortar Break

Mortar Break

Advanced Building Products provides a product called Mortar Break. This is a mortar deflection mat that works in conjunction with masonry flashing and weep vents. This is a complete and effective moisture management system for your masonry wall. Both products suspend excess mortar droppings above the weep holes and allow any moisture trapped within the cavity to seep down the flashing and out of the wall. The system also helps to maintain an airspace for ventilation and drying of the wall cavity. Mortar Break® is designed to prevent mortar droppings from blocking drainage channels for 1” ( 25mm ) masonry cavity wall applications. Mortar Break® is available in a 10” standard width by 50 ft. roll.
