Additional information

Technical Caracteristics

Product comprised of hydraulic bonding materials, micronized minerals, natural marl soils and other additives.

Advantages and Uses

  • Highly fluid and cohesive mixing.
  • High resistance to salts.
  • No separation or exudation.
  • Low content of soluble salts.
  • High mechanical resistance.
  • Excellent sealing, maintaining continuity between the probe and bore walls.

Application Procedure

  • Make the boreholes in the ground and install the probe.
  • Fill the interior annular space between the probes and interior bore walls with the mixed grout using a pump fitted with appropriate mixing and pressure control system.
  • Mechanically mix with the stated amount of water (5.5-6.3 l per sack) until a fluid consistency is achieved gradually adding the powder to a part of the recommended amount of water.
  • If necessary the amount of water added to the mixture can be reduced increasing the fluid viscosity for situations where the ground is very permeable, thick sands or cavities. The injection equipment can be limited in these situations to the pressure of the work necessary.

Recommendations

  • Do not reuse previously mixed product.
  • Do not apply under 5ºC nor above 30ºC.
  • Do not apply if there is a risk of freezing.

Notas

The information and instructions in this datasheet are based on our current tests and technical knowledge. They are intended as general guidance and do not constitute a binding commitment by PIDILITEPUMA MEA CHEMICALS LLC. It is the sole responsibility of the user to verify, prior to use, that the product is suitable for the intended application and to ensure that it is applied correctly and in accordance with applicable regulations and good industry practice.

PIDILITEPUMA MEA CHEMICALS LLC cannot control how its products are applied on site throughout the entire project and therefore cannot accept responsibility for their application by contractors or other parties involved in the execution of the work. Support visits to the jobsite by our technical staff do not change that. Our responsibility is limited exclusively to defects that can be directly attributed to the supplied products, whether used individually or as part of a system, caused by manufacturing defects.

 

It is the responsibility of the project designer, site manager, contractor, or other relevant professionals to ensure that the selected products are appropriate for the specific project, taking into account their properties, the substrate, site conditions, and any existing issues.

In the event of a claim, the original packaging must be provided to ensure proper product traceability.

Any performance values stated for PIDILITEPUMA MEA CHEMICALS LLC products or construction solutions, whether in UNE standards or other applicable standards, are based solely on the specific test conditions defined in those standards (such as substrate type, temperature, and humidity). These values may not apply to situations where products are tested or used under different conditions.
