About this file
This is a product data sheet for Stonclad GS, a four-component troweled epoxy mortar system manufactured by Stonhard. The product is designed for flooring applications and can be applied at thicknesses ranging from 1/8 inch to 1/4 inch depending on requirements. Stonclad GS delivers compressive strength of 10,000 psi after 7 days, tensile strength of 1,750 psi, flexural strength of 4,000 psi, and impact resistance exceeding 160 in./lbs. The material exhibits Class 1 flammability rating, 0.2% water absorption, and a cure time of 24 hours at 75°F. Each unit covers approximately 200 square feet at nominal 1/4 inch thickness and is available in 12 standard colors. The product should be stored between 60 to 85°F with a shelf life of 3 years in unopened containers.
The system is suitable for application over concrete, wood, brick, quarry tile, metal, and Stonhard Stonset grouts with appropriate primer selection. Installation requires mechanical mixing using a JB Blender or equivalent mixer, with material applied immediately after mixing using a screed applicator and finished with steel trowels. Application temperature must remain between 60 to 85°F to ensure proper cure and application properties. Optional system enhancements include Stonkote GS4 and Stonkote HT4 coatings for improved cleanability and chemical resistance, the Stonproof ME7 waterproofing membrane system, and available cove bases for floor-to-wall sealing. Proper substrate preparation utilizing mechanical methods is critical for adequate bond and system performance.

STONCLAD®GS
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Stonclad GS is a four-component, troweled, epoxy mortar sys-tem. The system consists of an epoxy resin, amine curing agent, pigments and selected, graded aggregates. Stonclad GS can be applied at thickness ranging from 1/8 in./3 mm to 1/4 in./6 mm depending on application requirements. Stonclad GS cures to an extremely hard, impact-resistant mortar which exhibits excellent abrasion, wear and chemical resistance and can be used anywhere an epoxy mortar is required.
SYSTEM OPTIONS
Coatings To improve cleanability and increase the resistance to damage from abrasion and chemical spillages, the following coatings are recommended: Stonkote GS4 and Stonkote HT4. Other coating options are available, please contact your local Stonhard repre-sentative or Technical Service for specific requirements.
Waterproofing Where the total system must be waterproof, use of Stonhard’s Stonproof ME7 membrane system is required, with strict adher-ence to application instructions.
Cove Base To provide for an integral seal at the joint between the floor and the wall, cove bases in varying heights are available, contact your local Stonhard representative or Technical Service for details.
PACKAGING
Stonclad GS is packaged in units for easy handling. Each unit consists of:
2 cartons, each containing:
6 foil bags of Amine 6 poly bags of Resin
12 individual bags of Part C-1 Aggregate 1 carton containing:
12 bags of Part C-2 Pigment
COVERAGE
Each unit of Stonclad GS will cover approximately 200 sq.
ft./18.6 sq. m of surface at a nominal 1/4 in./6 mm thickness.
STORAGE CONDITIONS
Store all components of Stonclad GS between 60 to 85˚F/16 to 30˚C in a dry area. Avoid excessive heat and do not freeze.
The shelf life is 3 years in the original, unopened container.
COLOR
Stonclad GS is available in 12 standard colors. Refer to the Stonclad Color Sheet. Color variations will exist if the Stonclad GS surface is not coated with a pigmented coating. Please con-tact your local Stonhard representative or Technical Service with any questions.
SUBSTRATE
Stonclad GS, with the appropriate primer, is suitable for applica-tion over concrete, wood, brick, quarry tile, metal or Stonhard Stonset grouts. For questions regarding other possible sub-strates or an appropriate primer, contact your local Stonhard representative or Technical Service.
SUBSTRATE PREPARATION
Proper preparation is critical to ensure an adequate bond and system performance. The substrate must be dry and properly prepared utilizing mechanical methods. Questions regarding substrate preparation should be directed to your local Stonhard representative or Technical Service.
PRIMING
The use of Standard Primer is necessary for all applications of Stonclad GS over all substrates except Stonset grouts. Over Stonset grouts, Stonhard’s Stonset Primer is used. Please see the appropriate primer Product Data sheet for details.
MIXING
• Proper mixing is critical for the product to exhibit the prop-er application properties, cure properties and ultimate physi-cal properties.
• Mechanical mixing using a JB Blender (or equivalent 5 gal. pail mixer) or a larger mortar mixer (e.g., a Baugh 3 Batch Mixer) is required.
• See Stonclad GS Directions for further details.
APPLYING
• DO NOT attempt to install material if the temperature of Stonclad GS components and substrate are not within 60 to 85˚F/16 to 30˚C. The cure time and application properties of the material are severely affected at temperatures outside of this range.
• Material must be applied immediately after mixing.
• A suitable screed applicator is used to distribute the mixed Stonclad GS onto the floor.
• Steel finishing trowels are used to compact and smooth the surface of the material to the required thickness.
• Detailed application instructions can be found in the Stonclad GS Directions.
NOTES
• Procedures for cleaning of the flooring system during opera-tions can be found in the Stonhard Floor Maintenance Guide.
• Specific information regarding chemical resistance is available in the Stonclad Chemical Resistance Guide. If a coating is uti-lized to seal the Stonclad GS surface, please ensure that you consult the Product Data sheet for the coating for details regarding chemical resistance of the coating utilized.
• Safety Data Sheets for Stonclad GS are available online at www.stonhard.com under Products or upon request.
• A staff of technical service engineers is available to assist with installation or to answer questions related to Stonhard prod-ucts.
• Requests for literature can be made through local sales repre-sentatives and offices, or corporate offices located worldwide.
• The appearance of all floor, wall and lining systems will change over time due to normal wear, abrasion, traffic and cleaning.
Generally, high gloss coatings are subject to a reduction in gloss, while matte finish coatings can increase in gloss level under normal operating conditions.
• Surface texture of resinous flooring surfaces can change over time as a result of wear and surface contaminants. Surfaces should be cleaned regularly and deep cleaned periodically to ensure no contaminant buildup occurs. Surfaces should be periodically inspected to ensure they are performing as expected and may require traction-enhancing maintenance to ensure they continue to meet expectations for the particular area and conditions of use.
