Armatop-100 - Reinforcement Mesh for Coatings, 50 m² Roll
Armatop-100: reinforcement mesh for the base coat of coatings
Armatop-100 is a reinforcing mesh that is embedded in the base coat of coatings and facade mortars. Its purpose is to distribute the stresses caused by substrate movement and temperature cycles, which are the origin of most of the cracks that appear in a continuous coating.
It is supplied in a 50 m² roll. Like any base coat reinforcement, it only does its job if it sits inside the mortar rather than resting on the substrate: the correct position is the outer third of the layer's thickness.
✅ Main advantages
- Crack control: distributes stresses across the entire coated section.
- Reinforcement of critical points: corners of openings, junctions and changes of substrate.
- Coverage per roll: 50 m² of surface per roll, before deducting overlaps.
- Easy to handle on site: cut with scissors or a utility knife and adapt it to the geometry of the facade.
- Simple integration: embedded in the fresh mortar, with no primers or prior treatments.
🏗️ Recommended applications
- Reinforcing the base coat of coatings and facade mortars.
- Diagonal reinforcement at the corners of windows and doors.
- Junctions between substrates of different types.
- Refurbishment of facades with continuous coating.
- Facade areas exposed to greater movement or thermal changes.
📋 Technical specifications
- Type: reinforcement mesh (reinforcing fabric) for coatings.
- Supply: 50 m² roll.
- Placement: embedded in the base coat, in the outer third of its thickness.
- Overlaps: between adjacent strips, plus diagonal reinforcements at the corners of openings.
- Material, weight per m², roll width, mesh opening and tensile strength: not published on the Sika España website. Consult the documentation of the system it is part of.
🧰 Directions for use
- Check that the substrate is clean, firm and as even as the coating requires.
- Apply the first pass of the base coat at the thickness specified by the mortar manufacturer.
- Spread the mesh over the fresh mortar and press it with the trowel until it is embedded.
- Overlap adjacent strips and place diagonal reinforcements at the corners of the openings.
- Cover with the second pass of mortar until no fiber is visible.
- Allow the base coat to harden before applying the intended finish.
- Avoid applying in rain, strong wind, intense direct sun or risk of frost.
🛡️ Standards and certificates
- Reinforcement accessory for facade coating systems.
- Performance is substantiated for the complete system (mortar + reinforcement), not for the mesh on its own.
- Sika España does not publish a separate Data Sheet for this reference on its website.
📦 Supply formats
- 50 m² roll.
- Rolls per box or per pallet: not declared.
💡 Professional tip: always calculate more mesh surface than facade surface. Between the overlap of the strips and the diagonal reinforcements at openings, a 50 m² roll covers considerably less than 50 m² of coated surface. Allowing a 10-15% margin avoids the worst-case scenario on site: running out of mesh halfway across a section and having to interrupt the base coat with a cold joint.
Sika España does not publish a Product Data Sheet for Armatop-100 on its website. The description is qualitative and the format comes from the supplier's catalog; no unverified technical figures are included.
Frequently asked questions
What is Armatop-100?
It is a reinforcing mesh that is embedded in the base coat of coatings and facade mortars. It distributes the stresses caused by substrate movement and temperature cycles, which give rise to most cracks.
What format does it come in?
It is supplied in a 50 m² roll. That figure is the surface area of the roll, before deducting overlaps. Rolls per box or per pallet are not declared.
How is it installed?
The first pass of the base coat is applied, the mesh is spread over the fresh mortar and pressed with the trowel until it is embedded. It is then covered with the second pass until no fiber is visible.
Where should the mesh sit within the base coat?
It should be embedded in the outer third of the layer's thickness, inside the mortar and not resting on the substrate. Adjacent strips are overlapped and diagonal reinforcements are added at the corners of openings.
How much mesh should I calculate?
It is advisable to calculate more mesh surface than facade surface, because overlaps and reinforcements mean that a roll covers less than 50 m² of coated surface. The description suggests allowing a 10-15% margin.
Frequently asked questions about Sika products (mortars, adhesives and sealants)
How do I know which size and quantity to buy?
Each product page includes the approximate yield or consumption (for example kg/m² or metres of bead per cartridge) in the "Technical specifications" section. Calculate the surface area or thickness of your project and multiply by that consumption to find out how many units you need. If in doubt, contact us with the measurements of your job.
Where can I find the complete technical data sheet (Product Data Sheet)?
The description of each product already includes the main technical data (strengths, setting times, application temperature, applicable standards, etc.), taken from the official Sika Spain Product Data Sheet. If you need the complete PDF data sheet or the safety data sheet (SDS), write to us and we will send it to you.
Do these products comply with European regulations (CE marking)?
Most Sika products carry the CE marking in accordance with the relevant European standard (for example EN 1504 for structural repair, EN 12004 for tile adhesives, EN 13888 for grouts or EN 15651 for sealants). The exact standard for each reference is detailed in the "Standards and certificates" section of its product page.
What protective equipment do I need to apply them?
It depends on the product: cement-based mortars and adhesives are usually irritating to skin and eyes (gloves, goggles and a mask are recommended), while polyurethane sealants and adhesives require good ventilation. Always check the safety section of the product page and its safety data sheet (SDS) before use.
How should I store these products and how long do they last unopened?
Shelf life and storage conditions (temperature, humidity, protection from light) vary depending on the type of product (cementitious, polyurethane, epoxy, etc.) and are stated on the packaging and in the data sheet of each reference. In general, it is advisable to store in a dry place, protected from frost and direct sunlight.
Can I return a Sika product if I haven't used it?
Yes, you have 14 calendar days from receipt to exercise your right of withdrawal, provided the product is in its original packaging and has not been opened. The cost of return shipping is borne by the customer. Contact us at info@vetonek.com or via WhatsApp on +34 629 571 735.
How long does my order take to arrive?
We ship to mainland Spain, the Balearic Islands, Portugal and the other European countries we serve (France, Belgium, the Netherlands, Germany, Italy, etc.). The estimated delivery time is 3 to 9 working days (no shipping to the Canary Islands, Ceuta or Melilla).
