About SPEC MIX 94 lb Type S Mortar (Tan)
SPEC MIX 94 lb Type S Mortar (Tan) is a factory pre-blended masonry mortar designed for professional construction applications involving brick, concrete block, and stone. As a pre-pigmented dry mixture, it combines cementitious materials and dried masonry sand with a stable iron oxide pigment to achieve a consistent Tan color throughout the batch. This product is engineered to eliminate the inconsistency often associated with field-mixed mortars by delivering a uniform proportion of ingredients in every bag.
This mortar falls under the Type S classification, indicating it is formulated for high-strength requirements and structural integrity. It is suitable for load-bearing walls, below-grade applications, and projects requiring high compressive strength. The dry mix requires only the addition of water and mechanical mixing to produce a workable, cohesive material ready for trowel application.

Applications & Material Features of SPEC MIX 94 lb Type S Mortar (Tan)
SPEC MIX 94 lb Type S Mortar (Tan) is utilized in various vertical and horizontal masonry construction projects where structural strength and color consistency are priorities. Typical professional applications include the installation of clay brick, concrete masonry units (CMU), and manufactured or natural stone. The Type S formulation provides higher compressive strength compared to Type N mortar, making it appropriate for masonry at or below grade, as well as seismic force-resisting systems.
The material features a controlled blend of aggregates and cementitious binders that supports board life and workability for masons. The integration of color pigment during the manufacturing process ensures that the finished joint color is uniform across different batches, reducing the variability found when adding dye packets on-site.

What is the difference between Type S and Type N mortar?
Type S mortar is formulated for higher compressive strength and typically contains a higher ratio of cementitious material. It is often used for structural, load-bearing, or below-grade applications, whereas Type N is a general-purpose mortar used for exterior veneers and non-load-bearing interior walls.
Does this mortar require sand to be added?
No, this product is a pre-blended mix that already contains the necessary dried masonry sand. It requires only the addition of water and proper mixing before use.
Is the Tan color consistent throughout the bag?
Yes, the pigment is factory-blended into the dry mix to ensure uniform color distribution, minimizing variations that can occur with field-mixed coloring.
What standards does this mortar meet?
This product is manufactured to meet the property specifications of ASTM C270 and ASTM C1714 for Type S mortar.
How should bags be stored on the job site?
Bags should be kept in a dry, covered area protected from weather and moisture to prevent premature hydration or clumping of the cementitious materials.
