MAPEI Large Tile & Stone Mortar is engineered as a non-slump, medium-bed mortar that provides critical support for heavy, large-format tile and natural stone. Its specialized formulation allows for the buildup of the mortar bed to compensate for irregularities in the substrate, ensuring high coverage and preventing the hollow spots that typically lead to cracked tile and grout in high-traffic areas. Because of its specific chemistry, this mortar allows for the installation of tiles up to 1/2-inch thick on horizontal surfaces without significant settling. It is essential to use this product when your project involves oversized materials, as it provides the structural integrity required to keep tiles flush and secure. Always verify substrate compatibility and prepare the surface according to the technical data sheet. For best results, we recommend a professional assessment of your subfloor to ensure it meets deflection requirements for heavy-format tile installations.
