Mortar Deflection - Mortar Break II®

Mortar Break ®

Mortar Break II ®

Mortar Catch ®

The complete Mortar Break II ® System is backed by Advanced Building Products, a leading manufacturer of thru-wall flashings. Mortar deflection devices have gained popularity in recent years, and with good reason. Advanced Building Products was the first flashings manufacturer to see the need to provide a drainage system for all cavity wall construction. Our products have been tested both in the lab and in the field.
Mortar Break II ® is now made from 40% recycled materials and qualifies for L.E.E.D. rating system credits.

Polymer Type: High Density Polypropylene.


* BREAKS UP & DEFLECTS MORTAR DROPPINGS AWAY FROM WEEP HOLES.
* ALLOWS MOISTURE IN THE CAVITY TO FLOW DOWN THROUGH THE GEOMATRIX DESIGN AND OUT THROUGH MORTAR MAZE WEEP VENTS.
* EASY AND ECONOMICAL TO INSTALL. (UP TO 50% LABOR SAVINGS OVER CONVENTIONAL METHODS.)
* THE NARROWER DESIGN HELPS AVOID ANY POSSIBLE BRIDGING OF MORTAR ACROSS THE CAVITY.


Size:
Mortar Break II ® is 1.5" (38mm) thick and is supplied in 35' (6.096m) lengths x 10" (254mm) wide.

NOTE:
Any mortar deflection device is only as good as the flashing with which it is installed. The Brick Institute of America states in its technical note #21: "It is suggested that only superior materials be selected for flashing, as its replacement in the event of failure will be exceedingly expensive."
