- High initial and final strength.
- Efficient bonding to steel and concrete.
- Resistance to impact and vibration.
- Low water permeability.
Certified according to EN 1504-3 and EN 1504-6, classified as a CC R4 mortar for concrete repairs and as an anchoring product for reinforcing steel bars respectively. Certificate No.: 2032-CPR-10.11. CE marked. Classified as a type C grout according to ASTM C 1107-99.
MEGAGROUT-101 is suitable for:
- Seating and encasing of machinery.
- Anchoring.
- Grouting of base plates of precision machinery.
Substrate preparation
The substrate must be clean, free of dust, grease, etc. Furthermore, it must be roughened in order to ensure proper bonding of the grout on it. Before application, it is recommended to thoroughly dampen the substrate.
Application
After being hydrated, MEGAGROUT-101 becomes a fluid, fine-grained mixture, so part of it may escape the joints between particular elements of the formwork. Therefore, formwork joints must be sealed with AQUAFIX rapid-setting cement or RAPICRET fast-setting patching mortar. MEGAGROUT-101 is gradually added to 3.0 l or water and mixed well with a low speed mixer (300 rpm), until a uniform fluid mass id formed. An additional amount of up to 0,50 l of water is added under stirring, until the desired fluidity is achieved. The mixture is then poured, taking care to avoid air entrapment. In any case, it must be ensured that the grout has filled the whole space between the formwork and the existing construction. Surfaces formed with MEGAGROUT-101 and exposed to open air must be kept wet for at least 24 hours, covered with wet cloths or polyethylene sheets.
