Mortar Catch® is a mortar deflection mat that is designed for use at all flashing locations where wide cavity (greater than 2 inches) construction is required. Mortar Catch®, when shaped in a “U” configuration on the job site, fills the entire cavity to prevent mortar droppings from blocking and clogging the drainage channels.
Benefits
- Deflects mortar droppings, allowing moisture to drain.
- Greater airflow and drainage compared to most plastic mesh-based products.
- Lightweight & easy to install with no mechanical fastening.
A. Install mortar deflection devices as part of masonry wall construction and in accordance with manufacturer’s installation instructions.
B. Install in cavities at all through wall masonry flashings with weep holes. [locations detailed on Drawings.]
C. Place Mortar Catch® horizontally directly on the flashing.
