Fast-setting flexible mortar for coves, joints and penetrations. Bonds to damp concrete, takes 15% movement, membrane over it in 2 hours.

ACTFLEX FLEXIPLUG is a two-part elastomeric repair mortar for sealing joints, cracks, corner junctions and service penetrations. It is the detailing mortar of the FORSPEC membrane systems, forming the coves and reglets under ACTFLEX 988 CWP and 989 CWP.

Where to use it

  • Corner coves and fillets under FORSPEC membranes, including the 988 CWP and 989 CWP details
  • Crack repair reglets over 2.0 mm within FORSPEC membrane systems
  • Construction joints in wet or submerged areas, pools, tanks, pipelines and reservoirs
  • Around penetrations, pipe entries, skimmers and drains. Stop any active flow with ACTFLEX HYDROPLUG first

Why waterproofers buy it

  • Initial set 25 to 30 minutes, final set 50 to 60 minutes. FORSPEC membranes over-coat after 2 hours
  • Takes up to 15% joint movement
  • Bonds to damp, saturated-surface-dry concrete. No waiting for a dry substrate
  • Foot traffic 8 hours, wheel traffic 24 hours, permanent immersion 72 hours
  • Thixotropic for vertical and overhead work
  • 2 kg, 5 kg and 10 kg kits, mixed 1 to 1 by weight. 10 year Forspec product warranty

Coverage

A 10 x 10 mm joint uses 0.128 kg/m. 10 kg kit: approximately 78 to 80 m of it.

Not for

Below 10°C or above 30°C, water contact in the first 24 hours, joints under 5 mm or over 50 mm, joints moving more than 15%, or active flowing water.

Set times at 20°C. Other times at 25°C and 50% RH.

Technical overview

ACTFLEX FLEXIPLUG is a fast-setting, two-component elastomeric repair mortar for sealing joints, cracks, corner junctions and service penetrations. It is the detailing mortar of the FORSPEC membrane systems, forming the coves, reglets and junction details that ACTFLEX 988 CWP and ACTFLEX 989 CWP build over. It bonds to damp, saturated-surface-dry concrete, accommodates up to 15% joint movement, and reaches final set within the hour, with FORSPEC membranes over-coating after 2 hours. No Australian Standard prescribes performance requirements for elastomeric repair mortars of this type. Membrane-system compliance is carried by the FORSPEC membranes applied over the completed details, and no accredited test reports currently exist for this product.

Key applications

  • Corner junctions, coves and fillets within FORSPEC membrane systems, including the 15 x 15 mm rebates and 35 x 35 mm diagonal coves in the ACTFLEX 988 CWP and 989 CWP details
  • Crack repair reglets over 2.0 mm within FORSPEC membrane systems
  • Fast sealing of construction joints in wet or submerged areas
  • Urgent repairs in pools, tanks, pipelines, treatment plants and reservoirs
  • Sealing joints between precast elements, facade panels and tunnel segments
  • Sealing around penetrations, pipe entries, sleeves, skimmers and drains
  • Crack and joint repairs on concrete floors, industrial pavements and garages exposed to wheel and forklift traffic

Surface suitability

  • Concrete (sound, fully cured, mechanically prepared to a clean open profile, pre-wetted and held at a uniform saturated-surface-dry condition with no standing water)
  • Masonry (sound and free from dust, laitance, loose material, oil, grease, paint, coatings, curing compounds, efflorescence and form-release agents)
  • Ceramics, PVC and metals (excellent adhesion stated, with pull-off commonly failing the substrate rather than the bond)

Never apply below +10C or above +30C, ambient or substrate, or where rapid surface heating from direct sunlight or strong wind may cause flash-drying. No rain, condensation or water exposure within the first 24 hours of curing. Never apply to frozen, frosted or excessively dry porous surfaces; maintain a saturated-surface-dry condition, damp with no standing water. Maximum joint width is 50 mm and minimum joint width is 5 mm. Never dilute or extend with water, cement, sand or aggregates, and never re-temper to extend working time. Joints moving more than 15% require an engineered, FORSPEC-approved detail. Active flowing water must be stopped with ACTFLEX HYDROPLUG before FLEXIPLUG is applied. Incorrect depth-to-width geometry reduces performance. No heavy vibration, impact or traffic loads during the early cure phase, and a minimum of 72 hours cure at 25C and 50% RH before permanent water immersion. Classified a hazardous chemical, signal word Danger: causes skin irritation and serious eye damage, may cause an allergic skin reaction and respiratory irritation, is suspected of causing genetic defects and may cause damage to organs through prolonged or repeated exposure.
