Important Considerations

• Minimum substrate and ambient temperature 4ºC
• Do not thin. Addition of solvents will prevent proper cure.
• Material is a vapour barrier after cure
• Not for sealing and cracks under hydrostatic pressure at the time of application

Application Instructions

Substrate quality

Mortar and concrete must be older than 28 days. Adequate substrate strength must always be confirmed.

Substrate preparation

Surface must be clean and sound. It may be dry or damp, but free from standing water. Remove dust, laitance, grease, curing compounds, impregnations, waxes and any other contaminants. Specific preparation methods are detailed for concrete, stone, mortar, render, steel, polyester, epoxy, glass, and ceramics.

Mixing

Pre-mix each component. Proportion equal parts by volume of Component ‘B’ and Component ‘A’ into a clean pail. Mix thoroughly for 3 minutes with a Sika paddle on low speed (400-600 rpm) drill until uniform in colour. Mix only the quantity that can be used within its potlife.

Application method / tools

Apply Sika Concrete Fix to the prepared substrate by trowel or gloved hand. Ensure the material is worked well (scrubbed) into the surface, especially on damp surfaces. No standing water should be present. For adhesive applications, coat both adherents and press into place (provide temporary support on vertical and overhead surfaces). Adhesive layer should be at least 2 mm. For sealing injection ports and non-moving cracks, apply the neat mixed material over the cracks and around ports, allowing sufficient set time before injection. For anchoring bolts, dowels, and pins, the annular space should not exceed 3 mm, with an embedment depth typically 10-15 times the bolt diameter. Grout with neat Sika Concrete Fix.

Cleaning of equipment

Uncured material may be cleaned with Sika Colma Cleaner. Cured material can only be removed mechanically.

Colour Accuracy Disclaimer: We have taken care to display the most accurate visuals of our products. However, we are not responsible for the colour accuracy of the device you are viewing our swatches on. These variations arise due to different computer monitors and devices (make, model and technology, as well as resolution, contrast and brightness control settings) in much the same way a scan will differ from an original image and a colour photocopy. Furthermore, coatings can exhibit variation in perceived colour depending on gloss level and application method. If you require a very specific colour match, please make your selection via actual swatches and colour boards available at our showroom.

Product Disclaimer: Ensure you read all product, technical and safety data sheets prior to application as liability falls on the applicator. All products must be applied in accordance with manufacturer’s recommended method.
