- PRODUCT PROPERTIES:
➢ High early compressive strength even at low temperatures.
➢ High fluidity and good workability.
➢ Does not segregate or bleed water, ensuring uniform final physical performance and preventing pump clogging.
➢ Provides good adhesion to concrete surfaces.
➢ Maintains shrinkage compensation after casting.
➢ Ready to use – Just mix with water.
➢ Suitable for pumping.
➢ Free from chlorides and other corrosive components.
➢ Adjacent steel areas are permanently protected against corrosion.
- AREAS OF APPLICATION:
➢ MC-Grout 108 is supplied as a dry ready-to-use powder. The addition of the correct quantity of clean water will produce a grout with the correct flowability. The low water requirement ensures high early strength and long-term durability.
➢ The product is suitable for joint depths ranging from 10 to 150 mm below onshore wind turbine foundations.
➢ The product is suitable for work requiring early loading such as machine base columns, prestressed beams, bridge bearings, cavities, openings, recesses and high strength repairs.
- APPLICATION NOTES:
MC-Grout 108 is used to prevent normal shrinkage of mortar and concrete. MC-Grout 108 contains selected and pre-mixed aggregates to produce a homogeneous, stable and water-free mixture. Consumption: 74 – 75 bags per 1m³ of grout (depending on the water content of the mortar).
Substrate preparation: Concrete surfaces should be clean, sound and free from oil, grease, laitance, and loose particles. Metal shold be free from scale, sust, oil and grease. Absorbent substrates must be saturated thoroughly, but no standing water.
Mixing:
➢ Use an appropriate mixer and do not mix by hand. Allow 3 minutes mixing time to get a mixture showing homogeneous consistency.
➢ Leave the mixture for about 3-5 minutes to reduce the air holes and the chemical components to work together.
➢ Placing the grouting material as soon as possible after mixing to gain full benefit, and keeping mortar flow uninterupted.
Curing: Curing the exposed surface of the grout as soon as the surface is dry, avoiding the rapid loss of water causing cracking and reducing the quality of the mortars.
Cleaning: Use clean water to clean tools immediately after application. When the product is solidified, it can only be cleaned by mechanical methods.
Safety information:
➢ MC Grout 108 does not contain any hazardous substances.
➢ It is safe for use with standard precautions followed in the construction industry, such as use of hand gloves, safety goggles, etc.
➢ Avoid contact with foodstuffs and utensils.
➢ Avoid prolonged skin contact. In the event of contamination, wash thoroughly with water.
➢ If the eyes or mouth are affected wash with clean water and obtain medical attention immediately.
