Teknogrout Rapid Non-shrinkage Flowable Grout Mortar

Product description
It is a fast-strength, cement-based, one-component, non-shrinking, high-strength, flowing type grout mortar.

Usage areas
• Raising manhole and manhole covers,
• In the assembly of curbs and paving stones,
• In fixing the poles,
• It is used in the repair of concrete floors exposed to vehicle and pedestrian traffic.

Features and Advantages
• It provides ease of application thanks to its fluid feature.
• It gains strength very quickly. It can be opened to traffic after 1 hour.
• Since it does not shrink (shrinkage), its usage area is wide.
• It does not decompose and does not vomit water.
• Its hardness and wear resistance are high.
• It works monolithically with old concrete as it has very high adherence.
• Resistant to various chemicals, oils and acids.
• Since it does not contain metal, it is not affected by humidity.
• It is resistant to freezing and thawing.

Application Instructions
Surface Quality: Surfaces should be clean, smooth, solid, free from all kinds of dust, oil, dirt, rust, mold oil, detergent, etc. If there are cracks or cavities on the floor or wall where the application will be made, they should be repaired with appropriate TEKNOREP repair mortars. TEKNOGROUT RAPID application should be started after 3-4 days.

Surface Preparation: Cement slurry and weakened parts should be removed, and there should be no materials such as oil, dirt and rust on the surface. Absorbent surfaces should be pre-wetted, but water puddles and drops should not remain.

Mixing: 3 - 4 liters of clean, clear water taken from normal ambient temperature is poured into a clean container that is free of any substance preventing adhesion. TEKNOGROUT RAPID in 25 kg bag is poured into the container filled with water. It is mixed with a low speed mixer until a homogeneous mixture without lumps is obtained. Mixing time is minimum 1 min. should be. The mortar obtained at the end of the process is quickly placed in its place. After the material has reacted, water should not be added and mixed again. The prepared mixture should be placed in place within 2.5 minutes, depending on the air temperature and the amount of water. TEKNOGROUT RAPID should be poured from one side to fill the bottom of the cavities that are surrounded and covered on four sides. Thus, it prevents the formation of gaps by throwing the air out. It can be pushed from one side with a long piece of iron during casting to accelerate the flow.

The casting thickness should be between 10 - 60 mm as the layer thickness at a time. It is recommended to make a preliminary trial if it is to be used in filling cylindrical small diameter anchors. In applications thicker than 60 mm, 30% of the material can be added with 5 - 12 mm diameter aggregate.

Aggregate addition is done in two ways;
• The aggregate is added into the mortar. This process is continued until a homogeneous mixture is obtained.
• Aggregate is poured or laid on the application floor. Then the mixture is poured on the prepared TEKNOGROUT RAPID. The self-leveling mortar also allows us to obtain a high-strength concrete by wrapping around the entire aggregate.

Application Notes / Limitations
• Reaction times in cement based products are affected by ambient and ground temperatures. Reaction times are shortened in hot environments and longer in cold environments.
• Hot mixing water should be used in cold environments.
• In hot environments, cold mixing water should be used.
• During the application of the product, work clothes in accordance with the rules of work and worker health should be worn, and appropriate glasses and masks should be used.
• The prepared mixture should be placed in place within 5 minutes, depending on the air temperature and the amount of water.
• After the application, it should be protected against adverse weather conditions such as direct sunlight, strong wind, high air temperature (over +35°C), rain and frost. Before TEKNOGROUT RAPID fully cures and hardens, hands should be cleaned with water and detergent.
• Equipment should be cleaned with water immediately after the application, before it hardens. After the product hardens, it should be cleaned by mechanical methods.
