Chemrite Grout NS High Strength, High Performance Non Shrink Grout
Description Chemrite Grout NS is a cement-based, non-metallic, non -
shrink grout for supporting machinery and equipment. When mixed with water, it expands to compensate the shrinkage normally associated with cementitious products. Complies with ASTM C1107, Type C. Chemrite Grout Ns is used for grouting the following: Uses - Machine foundations & Bearing plates. - Stabilization of loose soil strata. - Foundation bolts, anchors and dowels. - Bridge, road and tunnel projects. - Supports of tanks and vessels. - Repair of concrete structures. - Gaps, Cavities and recesses. - Precast concrete elements. Chemrite Grout Ns is an easy to use product which requires simply addition of water at site. Its application offers the Advantages following benefits: - Easy to mix - Excellent flowability with adjustable consistency. - High early strength. Rapid strength development. - No strength loss over a long period. - Excellent bond with both concrete and steel. - Self-levelling ensures all gaps are filled uniformly. - High final strength. - Non-corrosive. Technical Data Form Grey Powder Density (25C) 2.2 Kg/Lit (wet mixture)
Mixing Water Clean, potable water should be mixed in the following ratio Requirement by weight of powder for desired level of flowability:
(13 % water) approx. 52 N/mm2 (3 day) approx. 80 N/mm2 (28 day) Max Thickness per 150 mm (horizontal) pour Packaging 25 Kg , 50 Kg bags Shelf Life One year in original, unopened packaging when stored in dry, shaded area.
Application Concrete must be clean, sound, free from oil, grease and Surface Preparation roughened to ensure a good bond with the substrate. Metal surfaces should be free from scale, rust and oil or grease. Absorbent surfaces should be in saturated-surface-dry (SSD) condition prior to gout application.
Mixing - Measured amount of water is added into the dry powder
to suit the desired level of consistency - Mix with a slow speed drill (max. 500 rpm) for at least 3 to 4 minutes to achieve uniform consistency. - In hot weather, use chilled water to keep grout temperature below 30C. Placement - Chemrite Grout NS, when mixed with water, can be poured or pumped. Horizental pours should not exceed 150 mm at one time. - Immediately after initial set, begin wet curing for at least three days. A suitable concrete curing compound can also be used for this purpose. - For large volume pours, consider extending the grout with clean aggregate. A maximum of 10 Kg aggregate may be added in 25 Kg of Chemrite Grout NS. - In hot weather ambient environment, base plates and foundation should be protected from exposure to direct sunlight. Safety Precautions - Normal precautions, as for any cementitious product, should be taken. - In case of contact with eyes or skin, rinse with plenty of water and seek medical help Ecology In liquid state, product can contaminate water. Dispose off waste material as per local regulations. Toxicity Non-toxic and Non-hazardous
