Features & Benefits

• High performance epoxy waterproof resin for detailing of waterproofing and ground gas protection systems
• Non-shrink and hence ensures complete surface contact and bond
• Waterproof and ground gas resistant
• High compressive, tensile and flexural strengths
• Fast, pourable installation with rapid strength gain
• Resistant to oil, grease, fats, most chemicals, mild acids and alkalis, fresh and sea water

Application Notes

• Supplied in 15 litre packs containing liquid, base and hardener
• Concrete surfaces should be cut back to a sound base. All steel surfaces should be prepared by suitable mechanical means such that they are free of rust and flaky mill scale. Cleaned surfaces may be protected by the application of Nitoprime 28
• If the formwork is to be removed it should be coated with a suitable release agent
• The entire contents of the base and hardener tins must be poured into a container of 25 litres capacity before mixing
• Mix with a slow speed drill and an MR3 Mixing Paddle for 2 minutes until a uniform colour and consistency is obtained
• In cold temperatures the mixing and application characteristics will be improved by pre-warming all components prior to use
• The mixed material should be poured steadily to eliminate the entrapment of air when pouring into a shutter
• When the product is applied under base plates (e.g. under steel columns), ensure sufficient material is available to complete the pour before starting. Pour from one side only, ensuring continuous grout flow
• All tools and equipment should be cleaned immediately after use with Fosroc Solvent 102. Spillages should be absorbed with sand or sawdust and disposed in accordance with local regulations

Limitations

• The cure rate will be slower near 5°C, and application should not be attempted when the temperature is 5°C and falling
• Where application temperature exceeds 20°C, pot life will be reduced significantly
• The cured grout, which is completely resistant to frost and sub-zero temperatures, is suitable for use up to 45°C
• All epoxy systems will develop a temperature rise on mixing. Its extent will be a function of the volume to surface ratio, the ambient temperature as well as the mass and thermal conductivity of the surrounding materials
