Product Intelligence
Nitoproof 310: Fibre Enhanced Latex Waterproofing Membrane
Product Overview
Nitoproof 310 is a fibre enhanced single component water-based latex waterproofing membrane specifically designed for applications where the membrane will be covered with tiles, screeds, and concrete beds. It is ideally suited as a general-purpose under-tile wet area membrane for residential and commercial waterproofing applications.
Key Features and Advantages
Nitoproof 310 offers several distinctive characteristics that make it suitable for wet area applications:
- Low VOC content (17g/litre) with non-hazardous formulation
- Elastomeric and flexible properties with good tensile strength once cured
- Will not re-emulsify after curing, providing long-lasting protection
- Excellent chemical resistance and adhesion to primed surfaces
- Compatible with polymer-modified cement-based tile adhesives, screeds, and renders
- Australian Made product
- User-friendly single component membrane that achieves good film build with reinforced properties

Application Specifications
Design Criteria
Nitoproof 310 is designed to be applied by thick brush or roller with the following specifications:
- Minimum of 2 coats required for complete coverage
- Minimum Wet Film Thickness (WFT): 1.5mm total (coverage of 1.5 litres/m²)
- Minimum Dry Film Thickness (DFT): 1.2mm
- Re-coat time: 2 to 4 hours at 23°C
- Application temperature range: 5°C to 30°C (surface temperature, not ambient)
Drying Times at 23°C (50% RH)
| Stage | Duration |
|---|---|
| Recoat | 2 to 4 hours |
| Dry Film | 8 to 12 hours |
| Flood Testing | 7 days |
| Resistance to Ponding Water | 7 days |
| Tiling/Toppings | 24 hours |
Allow an additional minimum of 24 hours drying time at 10°C.
Standards Compliance
Nitoproof 310 has been independently tested and complies with:
- AS/NZS 4858:2004 – Wet Area Membrane (Class III classification)
- AS 3740:2021 – Waterproofing of Wet Areas Within Residential Buildings
Testing was conducted by CSIRO (test report SW8500), with copies available from the Fosroc website.
Primary Applications
Nitoproof 310 is ideally suited for:
- Wet areas and shower alcoves
- Under-tile balcony areas
- Under-tile terrace areas
- Sandwich seal between existing and new substrates (e.g., old to new concrete; cement screeds over concrete and CFC surfaces)
Supply and Coverage Information
Product Supply
| Product | Product Code | Size |
|---|---|---|
| Nitoproof 310 | FC000602-15L | 15 litre drum |
Coverage Rate
- Nitoproof 310: 1.5 litres/m² (total 2 coats) = approximately 10m² per 15 litre drum
Coverage figures are theoretical; practical coverage may be reduced due to wastage factors and substrate variation.
Storage Requirements
- Store in original unopened containers in cool, dry conditions
- Temperature range: 5°C to 30°C
- Storage above 30°C may reduce shelf life
Limitations
Nitoproof 310 is not designed for use as a UV-exposed membrane and should not be applied when surface temperatures fall below 5°C or exceed 30°C.
