QUICSEAL 510 Grout is a supplied as ready to use cementitious non-shrink grout specially formulated to suit various purposes. QUICSEAL 510 is non-metallic and chloride free and is easy to use, requiring addition of water to produce a free flowing non-shrink grout.
Advantages
Uses
QUICSEAL 510 can be used in plastic or flowable consistency states in the following applications:
Application
Surface Preparation
All surfaces must be clean and sound and free from all surface laitance, oil and grease. All defective concrete should be removed till sound concrete is detected.
Saw cut the repair locations to a depth of at least 10 mm to provide a square edge and to avoid feather-edging. Break out the complete repair area to a minimum depth of 10 mm up to the sawn edge.
Expose fully any corroded steel in the repair area and remove all loose scale and corrosion deposits by using hand held grinding tools. Steel should be free from contaminants and any foreign matters that may inhibit adhesion.
The substrate should be dampened with water or primed with QUICSEAL bonding agent or adhesive slurry.
Mixing
Place specified amount of water into a clean container. Slowly add the contents of QUICSEAL 510 (powder) and mix with a slow speed drill fitted with a paddle type mixer blade of approximately 3-5 minutes until a homogeneous and lump-free consistency is obtained.
Placing
For horizontal application, apply well-mixed QUICSEAL 510 to the prepared surface at a thickness of 10mm to 40 mm in one layer. For vertical applications, reduce the ratio of water to drier consistency.
For placement of more than 1 layer, the surface of the intermediate layer should be scratch- keyed prior to application of subsequent layers. Application of the next layer may proceed as soon as the previous layer has fully set. Consistent with cementitious toppings, it is essential to allow QUICSEAL 510 to cure naturally in ambient conditions. Protect QUICSEAL 510 against rapid drying due to strong wind and direct sunlight or high temperature by covering with polythene sheet, wet hessian or QUICSEAL 507 Cure-Shield WB curing compound to reduce premature water loss. Apply curing compound only on finished surface but not on intermediate layers.
Packaging
QUICSEAL 510 is supplied in 25kg bags.
Storage
Store in a sheltered, cool, dry place, protected from rain and sunlight and extreme temperatures.
QUICSEAL 510 has a shelf life of 12 months when stored as stated in its original packaging.
