DEX-O-TEX
A-70 (VLW)
Latex Concrete
(very lightweight)

TYPE
Dex-O-Tex A-70 (VLW) lightweight
Latex Concrete is a synthetic resin mastic
emulsion deck surfacing that is trowel-
applied to form a seamless deck surface
for heavy duty areas and spaces subject
to heavy rolling loads. It is primarily
designed for use between channels of
decks in cargo ammunition holds as a
filler for leveling the deck surface for
walking and fork truck operations.
It is 20% lighter than standard A-70 Latex Concrete. It is non-corrosive to steel and aluminum, non-sparking and fire retardant.
A-70 (VLW) lightweight Latex Concrete
can also be used as an underlayment whenever thicker applications require a lightweight material.
