Service Temperature –20°C to 80°C
Recommended Thickness 2 mm to 50 mm in a single layer
Coverage ~1 kg covers 0.5 m² at 2 mm thickness
Bond Strength ≥ 2.0 MPa (concrete failure mode)
Compressive Strength ≥ 40 MPa at 28 days
Chemical Resistance Resistant to mild acids, alkalis and salts
Consistency Non-flowable, stiff (vertical/overhead capable)
Pot Life 2–3 minutes after mixing
Shelf Life 12 months

Key applications

  • Stopping active water leaks under pressure in concrete & masonry
  • Water tanks & water-retention structures
  • Basements, underground car parks, lift shafts & pits
  • Concrete pipes, tunnels, power stations & sewer systems
  • Joint sealing between concrete segments (pipes, culverts, tunnels, mines)
  • Wall/floor junction waterproofing in water-retaining structures (paired with ACTFLEX 988 CWP)
  • Rapid anchoring of bolts, pipes, conduits & sanitary fittings

Surface suitability

  • Concrete (clean, sound, damp — not frozen)
  • Masonry (clean, sound, damp — not frozen)

Not suitable for expansion or movement joints. Not for use on non-cementitious surfaces. Do not apply over frozen substrates. Application range 5–35°C. Not designed for prolonged UV exposure — overcoat with ACTFLEX 988 CWP for long-term waterproofing protection.

Frequently asked questions

View all FAQs
  • What is ACTFLEX HYDROPLUG used for?
    Compatibility

    HYDROPLUG instantly stops active water leaks under pressure in concrete and masonry - basements, water tanks, tunnels, lift shafts, foundations. Used when water is actively flowing and you need to stop the leak immediately to apply permanent waterproofing.

  • How fast does it set?
    Performance

    HYDROPLUG sets in 1-2 minutes initial set, fully waterproof in 5-10 minutes. Full strength cure in 24 hours. Once cured, it achieves greater than 40 MPa compressive strength at 28 days - structural-grade repair.

  • How is it applied to an active leak?
    Installation

    Mix the powder with water to a stiff putty consistency, then press firmly into the leak with gloved hands and hold for 30-60 seconds until the material sets and the water flow stops. Apply in 2-50mm thick layers.

  • Is it safe for potable water?
    Compatibility

    Yes. HYDROPLUG is non-toxic and approved for potable water contact - safe for drinking water tank repairs. Non-corrosive to rebar, sandable after cure, and won't shrink as it sets.

  • Service temperature range?
    Compliance

    Service temperature -20°C to +80°C once cured. Bond strength to concrete exceeds 2.0 MPa, often pulling out parent concrete in failure tests - structural-grade plug for serious leak situations.
