A single-component, polymer-modified, high build cementitious mortar, designed for structural concrete repairs. It requires only the addition of clean water to produce a lightweight, low permeability, high strength mortar for both soffit and vertical repair situations.
- Complies with BS EN 1504-3 as an R3 mortar
- Fibre Reinforced
- Lightweight, low density structural repair mortar which allows speedier completion of work
- High build properties – up to 75mm vertically and 50mm in a soffit repair, without formwork
- Easy to apply, with excellent application properties
- Contains fibres and spray dried acrylic polymer

Preparation
Concrete substrates must be adequately prepared by use of scabbing, needle gunning or other means, as appropriate. Oil and grease must be removed by steam cleaning together with suitable detergent. Any contaminated concrete must be removed. All damaged concrete should be cut back to a sound surface and at least 15mm behind any exposed reinforcement. The edges of the repair should be cut perpendicular to the surface of the repair.
Note: Disc cutting is not recommended due to hazardous respirable crystalline silica that can be produced.
New concrete must be at least 14 days old.
Thoroughly saturate the concrete but remove excess water.
Steel substrates should be grit blasted equivalent to BS 7079-A1 and degreased immediately prior to application. Where corrosion is absent, wire brushing to a clean, bright surface may be adequate. Care must be taken not to polish the rust.
Note: Preparation of both concrete and steel must achieve a clean, sound, roughened surface.
Mixing
For bonding slurry, mix 2.5 volumes of Webercem bondcoat powder to 1 volume of clean water. Mix vigorously to a brushable, slurry consistency.
To mix Webercem HB40 a low-shear, forced-action mixer must be used. Hand mixing of the mortar is not recommended
Mix for 2-3 minutes from adding the powder to the water.
Over mixing will entrain air and reduce compressive strength. Do not over mix.
Water addition is 2.4 to 2.7 litres of clean water per 20kg bag. Start at 2.4 litres and adjust as required upwards to 2.7 litres. Do not add more than 2.7 litres of water.
Application & Curing
Ensuring the prepared concrete substrate is saturated but surface damp, use a stiff brush to scrub the slurry well into the surface.
Apply the mortar to the substrate whilst the bonding slurry is still tacky and compact well into place, ensuring no air is trapped.
The minimum application thickness is 20mm. Where very thick sections are required, multiple applications may be necessary. Intermediate surfaces should be scratched to give a good mechanical key. Successive applications require the use of Webercem bondcoat.
Finish with a wooden or plastic float or sponge to present a lightly textured surface. Otherwise, finish with a steel float for a tightly closed surface.
Unless a levelling mortar, coating, inhibitor, sealer or other system is to be applied to the surface, cure immediately after finishing with a suitable membrane.
Before application of a coating or a levelling mortar, cure the repairs by covering with closely-fitting polyethylene sheeting.
When cured, Webercem bondcoat Webercem HB40, and are stable to freeze/thaw conditions but, following good concreting practice, they should not be applied in freezing weather or onto frozen surfaces or at temperatures below 5°C.
