Parex E140 Epoxy Grout is an epoxy resin based grout with high flow properties capable of placing in gaps between 70mm to 140mm. The epoxy resin formulation enables the product to be used in the most demanding situations giving exceptional mechanical strength. The volume stable mix design ensures complete fill of the grouted area and contact with the work piece.
Good resistance to most chemicals
Stable to sea water, petroleum products, and resists freeze thaw cycles
Tested in accordance with the appropriate parts of BS 6319
Preparation
Remove laitance and all loose material including dust, oil and grease to achieve a sound substrate
Steel surfaces should be free of mill scale and rust
Surfaces to be grouted should be free of standing water and in a surface dry condition
Formwork must be designed with sufficient hydrostatic head to ensure grout flow into and across the grouting area and should be made grout tight
Apply a silicone based release agent to the formwork surfaces which will effect release after grout has hardened. Alternatively use thick polythene sheet firmly fixed to the formwork.
Mixing
E140 comes in 4 containers. All containers must be used to complete the mix
Pour all of the resin and hardener into a clean mixing vessel
Mix with a slow speed drill (200-300rpm) and Mortar Stirrer (MR4) until homogeneous
Slowly add the filler to the mixed resin and hardener. When all the filler has been added, mix for a further two minutes until an even colour is achieved
Add the aggregate and mix for further minute until the aggregate is well dispersed throughout the mix
Try and ensure that air entrainment is kept to a minimum by keeping the mixing head below the surface level of the grout at all times
Larger volumes may be mixed using a forced action mixer such as the Creteangle
Each 38.98kg pack will yield approximately 18.75 litres of mixed material
Placing
Allow mixed grout to stand for 5 minutes prior to placing to allow entrained air from mixing to be released
Place grout continuously into the work area from one side only. Where further mixes are required to fill the void, these should be prepared in sequence such that pouring is continuous
Place mixed grout within 30 minutes after start of mixing
Place in gap widths between 70mm and 140mm
Do not disturb the grouted section until the grout has hardened
Tools and mixing equipment should be cleaned with Solvent before grout has hardened. Set grout can only be removed mechanically
E140 Epoxy Grout may be placed at temperatures between 5°C and 35°C
