Setplug is a fast set cementitious mortar for rapid patching and plugging of water leaks in concrete structures.
Usage
Setplug is used for patching water leaks in concrete structures such as; Tunnel lining, sewage plants, basements, water tanks, foundations and concrete segments.
Materials Supplied
1, 5 and 18 kg plastic buckets.
Storage
Protect from frost and store under dry warehouse conditions at a temperature between 10°C and 30°C.
Shelf Life
6 months in unopened bags and stored under good conditions.
SURFACE PREPARATION
All substrate should be clean and free lose material and contamination. All areas to be patched should be cut back to a minimum depth of 15 mm. Leaking cracks should be chased out to a depth of 20 mm.
MIXING
Clean water should be added to a clean container. Add the powder slowly and mix using a trowel or gloved hand until a stiff mixture is obtained, the mixing ratio should be 1 part of water for each 3 parts of Setplug measured by volume.
This is equivalent to 1 part of water for each 4 parts of Setplug measured by weight.
Due to the rapid set nature of the product, mix only small amounts that can be used within the setting time. In very cold conditions, the use of warm water (room temperature) is advisable to accelerate strength development. Do not apply when frost is expected within 12 hours of application.
For hot temperature applications, the material should be stored in the shade and cooler water used.
APPLICATION
Apply the product to the leaking areas using trowel or gloved hand and hold until set. Apply at a minimum thickness of 15 mm. Cover the leaking area and surrounding areas.
The minimum application thickness of Setplug is 15 mm.
When the needed quantity is mixed, it must be used and held in the needed position until the initial set is reached (1 minute at 25°C).
