Ardex X 90 OUTDOOR Tile and Stone Mortar — Freeze-Thaw? No Problem
Ardex X 90 OUTDOOR is a high-performance mortar engineered for the harshest weather conditions. Formulated with specialty cements, polymers, and microfibers, it provides maximum freeze-thaw resistance (tested at 150+ cycles, far exceeding ANSI 118.15 standards) and excellent efflorescence protection.
This mortar sets rapidly even at temperatures as low as 40°F (5°C), and surfaces can withstand heavy rain or be grouted after just 2 hours. Its creamy, easy-to-apply consistency, extended open time, and strong adhesion make it perfect for porcelain, glass, ceramic, and most natural stone tiles. Ideal for exterior and interior floors and walls, including high-load commercial areas, swimming pools, patios, and balconies.
