Instruction for Use
Surface Preparation Surface Preparation
Concrete surfaces should be clean, sound and free from oil, grease, cement
laitance and all loosely adhering particles. Metal surfaces (iron and steel) should
be free from scale, rust, oil and grease. Absorbent substrates must be saturated
thoroughly, but there should be no standing water.
Mixing
The pre-mixed powder is added to water to suit the desired consistency. For
flowable consistency, approximately 4.2 litres of water per bag is required. Mix
mechanically for 2-3 mins with a slow speed drill (max. 500 RPM) until a smooth
even consistency is achieved.
Application
After mixing, allow the mortar to rest for a while, stirring lightly to ensure that air
displayed by the grouting is allowed to escape. When carrying out base plate
grouting, ensure that sufficient pressure head is maintained to keep mortar flow
uninterrupted. Make sure that the necessary formwork is firmly in place and kept
water light. SikaGrout-215 may be placed in thickness up to a maximum of 50mm
at one pour.Where large areas are to be placed, it is important to maintain a
continuous flow throughout. It is necessary to organize the work sequence
properly (manpower, materials, etc.) to ensure an uninterrupted flow. In such large
areas, SikaGrout- 215 may also be pumped. A heavy duty diaphragm pump is
recommended for this purpose. Screw feed and piston pumps may also be used.
Specific Application
Grouting under base plate: Use flowable consistency
Grouting Anchor bolts: Use trowellable consistency
Grouting large volumes: For sections thicker than 50mm it is necessary to fill the
SikaGrout-215 with graded 10mm sil silt-free aggregate to minimize temperature
rise. The quantity of aggregate should not exceed 1-part SikaGrout-215 by
weight. For such mixes, a conventional concrete mixer and pump may be used.
Cleaning
Clean all tools and equipment with water immediately after use. Hardened mortar
can only be mechanically removed.
