EST-Mesh 80 g/m²

Applications

•  Reinforcement of mortars, renders and coarse-aggregate mortars (one-coat renders, roughcast, lime and cement mortars), indoors and outdoors

•  Reinforcement between coats of ESTonetex TXT and Park mortars

•  Prevention of cracks and fissures in walls and surfaces

•  Reinforcement of façades, walls, ceilings and partitions with joints between different materials, in coating, theming or high-end decoration work

•  Heterogeneous substrates with Texturest and TrabiCal, embedded in the first coat

Technical specifications

Data from the ESTecha 2026 catalogue and the product's previous data sheet. Full technical documentation is available on request through the contact form.

Which mortars is it used with?

It is the recommended mesh for the thixotropic mortars TXT and Park, and for mortars, renders and coarse-aggregate mortars in general. In the ESTonetex System it is embedded in TXT between coats (especially at structural joints, joints between different materials or large thicknesses); in Park, between coats when the thickness exceeds 50 mm; in Texturest and TrabiCal, in the first coat on heterogeneous substrates, to minimise micro-cracking; and in Extreme SR-MR at critical points or large thicknesses.

How is it installed?

It is laid over the first coat of mortar while it is still fresh and fully covered with mortar. Another coat is then applied on top, or the surface is scored before the material dries. It is advisable to pre-cut the mesh into pieces so that it is easier to install.

Observations and precautions

The mesh must be completely covered by the mortar. It is essential in façades, walls, ceilings or partitions with joints between different materials in coating, theming or high-end decoration work. Professional-use material.

Storage

Store in a dry place, away from direct sunlight.

Complementary materials

Frequently asked questions

What is the EST-Mesh 80 g/m² mesh used for?
To reinforce mortars, renders and coarse-aggregate mortars, help reinforce surfaces and prevent the appearance of cracks and fissures. It is the ideal mesh for ESTonetex TXT and Park mortars.

Which ESTonetex System mortars use EST-Mesh 80 g/m²?
TXT and Park are the mortars it is intended for. It is also the mesh recommended by Texturest and TrabiCal on heterogeneous substrates, and by Extreme SR-MR at critical points or large thicknesses.

How many square metres does a roll cover?
Each roll is 50 m long by 1 m wide, i.e. 50 m². The area actually covered depends on the overlaps and cut-offs on each job.

What is the difference between this mesh and the other meshes in the range?
The weight, roll format and application differ. EST-Mesh 80 g/m² (50 m x 1 m roll, 10 x 10 mm mesh size) is intended for mortars, renders and coarse-aggregate mortars, and is the ideal one for TXT and Park; the catalogue also includes a 110 g/m² mesh with the same indication and a higher weight. The Tramaglass 145 g/m² mesh and the 160 g/m² mesh for ETICS (50 m x 1 m) are intended for ETICS systems and applications on EPS and XPS with fine-aggregate mortars. The 330 g/m² mesh (25 m x 1 m roll) is used to cover iron-rod structures in artificial rocks and waterfalls and as reinforcement in the lower areas of walls and façades. The 45 g/m² fibreglass tissue reinforces surfaces coated with stucco, filler or paint and repairs existing cracks.

Can it be used on polystyrene (EPS/XPS) with fine-aggregate mortars?
For ETICS systems and applications on EPS and XPS with fine-aggregate mortars, the catalogue indicates the 145 and 160 g/m² meshes. Note that with ESTonetex Fibrax no fibreglass mesh is needed on the polystyrene, whereas the ESTonetex Forte adhesion method on EPS/XPS does include mesh.

When is the mesh installed and how should it end up?
It is laid in the first coat of mortar while it is still fresh and must be fully covered. Another coat is then applied on top, or the surface is scored before the material dries.
