Technical overview
Key applications
- As a non slump re-profiling mortar
- For concrete repair
- For walls and floors
- For levelling pool tank walls
- Modelling pool edges in swimming pools
- For breakout depths from 5 mm to 40 mm
Surface suitability
- Concrete (firm, grippy, load-bearing, pore open, free of adhesion inhibiting substances and pre-moistened to matt damp)
- Cement-based screed CT (firm, grippy, load-bearing, pore open, free of adhesion inhibiting substances and pre-moistened to matt damp)
- Concrete with exposed reinforcing steel (pretreated with ASOCRET-HS-FLEX corrosion protection)
- Untreated concrete (prepared by granulate or shot blasting or ultra-high pressure water jetting at 500 to 2000 bar)
- Pool tank walls and pool edges in swimming pools
Before any concrete restoration measures the current state must generally be checked by an expert and/or structural engineer, and the test report must be made available to the applicator before starting. Substrate and application temperature is approx. 5 to 30C. On large surface applications the layer thickness can be up to a maximum of 20 mm in one application step, and greater thicknesses must be built up in multiple skin-layed applications. Do not add water or new mortar to ASOCRET-BIS-5/40 that has already set in order to make it workable again, because of the risk of inadequate strength development. Protect surfaces that are not to be treated. Keep the mortar surfaces damp for at least 3 to 5 days after application, and pay extra attention to curing where the work is exposed to direct sunlight, draughts, high temperature fluctuations or low humidity. This product is classified Danger: H315 causes skin irritation, H318 causes serious eye damage and H335 may cause respiratory irritation. Avoid breathing dust and wear protective gloves, eye protection and face protection.
