This modern waterproofing membrane is specifically designed to address the challenging issue of substrate cracks reflecting into finished tile and stone floors. Certified to exceed ANSI A118.12 for anti-fracture protection, Laticrete Fracture Ban SC prevents cracks up to 1/8 inch (3 mm) from transferring, providing peace of mind that your installation will remain resilient against normal substrate movement and environmental changes. Its wet coat applies at a thickness of 30-40 mils (0.8-1.0 mm), and cures to a reliable 0.020-0.030 inches (0.5-0.8 mm), creating aeffective barrier that installers and clients can depend on with every use.
Simplicity defines every aspect of its application. Laticrete Fracture Ban SC utilizes a single-coat method that eliminates the need for additional reinforcing fabric-streamlining labor and reducing material costs for busy professionals. Its versatile formulation can be applied quickly using a brush or roller. A distinctive feature is its intuitive color-change technology: as it dries, the membrane shifts from light blue to dark blue, visually guiding installers to the precise moment it's ready for tile, brick, or stone placement. This responsive detail increases installation accuracy and helps maintain rigorous quality standards even in busy, high-production environments.
Engineered to minimize project downtime, this membrane's rapid-drying formula allows flooring installation to resume just 1-3 hours after application. By reducing waiting periods, Laticrete Fracture Ban SC keeps schedules on track and maximizes productivity for businesses, contractors, and renovation teams. Health and cleanliness are also addressed with built-in Microban antimicrobial protection, which helps inhibit mold and mildew growth throughout the membrane's lifespan. This ensures a cleaner finished environment-crucial for bathrooms, kitchens, and all areas where moisture control and hygiene matter deeply.
