MIXING: Precondition material to between 10°C and 23°C before using. Premix each component of the kit. Add the activator
component to the base component and mix thoroughly for 3 minutes with a slow speed drill. Do not aerate or mix more material
that can be placed in 30 minutes. To prepare an epoxy mortar, slowly add pre-packaged Pro-Struct 622 dry graded aggregate
to a kit of mixed resin and mix to a uniform consistency.

SPECIFICATION FOR STEEL PLATE BONDING:
CONCRETE PREPARATION:
Concrete should be at least 28 days old and have a minimum compressive strength of 25 MPa.
Remove cement laitance by scabbling or grit blasting to sufficient depth to expose main concrete aggregate. After preparation
is completed, the bonding surface must be clean, dry, sound and level.
STEEL PREPARATION:
Mild steel plates to grade as specified by the engineer shall be dry grit blasted to a white metal finish in accordance with ISO
8501 SA2½ to obtain a 100 – 140 micron blast profile.
Blasting should be done on site immediately prior to bonding and, if this is not practical, the plates can be shop-blasted but must
be transported and bonded on site the same day.
In coastal environments, a Weber Reilly Soluble Salt Test should be done to ensure a figure of not exceeding 100mg/m² is
indicated.
The non-bonding face must receive two coats of Carbomastic 15 to achieve a final D.F.T. of 250 microns.
PRIMING OF CONCRETE:
Apply Pro-Struct 618LV Low Viscosity Primer to the concrete surface at a spread rate of 3 – 4m²/litre.
While the primer is still wet and receptive, bond the plate as detailed below.
FIREPROOFING:
Protection of bonded plates can be achieved by applying Pyrocrete 241. (Available from StonCor Africa, 011-2545500).
