Application steps

MIXING

Mix grout powder mechanically in the correct ratio with water with low speed (max. 500 rpm) electric drill to avoid entraining too much air. Put around 80 to 90% of required water in the mixing drum, followed by SikaGrout®-104, mix for around 3 minutes and then add the balance water. Dependent on the desired consistency and flow properties, the mixing ratio can be adjusted. Do not mix more grout, which cannot be used within Pot life.

DO NOT ADD EXTRA WATER.

APPLICATION

Pour grout immediately after mixing into the prepared openings. Ensure that air displaced by the grout can easily escape, otherwise entrapped air will prevent full contact grouting. Wet porous substrates to saturated surface dry condition.

  

When grouting base plates etc., ensure that a continuous and sufficient head of pressure is maintained to keep the grout flowing. To make optimum use of the products expansion properties, apply the grout as quickly as possible (within max. 15 minutes).

CURING TREATMENT

Keep any visible, exposed grout surfaces as small as possible and protect from premature drying out by suitable measures (keep moist, cover with wet Hessian etc.).

CLEANING OF TOOLS

Clean all tools and application equipment with water immediately after use. Hardened/cured material can only be mechanically removed.
