ARDEX Products

ARDEX TL 1000™ is a self-leveling underlayment formulated with a blend of Portland cement, other hydraulic cements and polymers. ARDEX TL 1000 is designed specifically for fast leveling of interior concrete, cementitious terrazzo or ceramic, quarry or porcelain tiles prior to installing flooring – on, above or below grade. It can even be installed over concrete treated with certain curing compounds (see below). Pourable or pumpable when mixed with water, ARDEX TL 1000 seeks its own level and produces a durable, smooth and flat floor surface with minimum labour

ARDEX TL 1000 must be installed at a minimum thickness of 1/8” (3 mm) over the highest point in the floor, which typically results in an average thickness of 1/4” (6 mm) or more over the entire floor. ARDEX TL 1000 can be installed up to a 1 1/4” (3 cm) thick. To match existing elevations, ARDEX TL 1000 can be tapered to as thin an application as the sand in the material will allow. If a true featheredge is needed, ARDEX recommends using ARDEX FEATHER FINISH for transitions
