PRODUCT USE
QUIKRETE
®
Quick-Setting Cement can be used anywhere that rapid
setting is necessary, as it sets in approximately 10 minutes. Its unique
properties allow the user to actually sculpt the material as it begins to
harden. Quick-Setting Cement is used to repair:
• Concrete pipes, sewers and culverts
• Floors, steps and curbs
• Bridges and pavement
• Cold storage vaults and freezers
• Pre-stress panels
• Loading docks and tunnels
• Retaining walls
• Catch basins and septic tanks
SIZES
• QUIKRETE
®
Quick-Setting Cement –
• 50 lb (22.7 kg) bags
• 10 lb (4.5 kg) pails
• 6 lb (2.7 kg) pails
YIELD
• Each 50 lb (22.7 kg) bag of QUIKRETE
®
Quick- Setting Cement will
yield 0.45 cu ft (13 L) of material.
TECHNICAL DATA
APPLICABLE STANDARDS
ASTM International
• ASTM C109/C109M Standard Test Method for Compressive
Strength of Hydraulic Cement Mortars (Using 2-in. or [50-mm]
Cube Specimens)
• ASTM C191 Standard Test Method for Time of Setting of Hydraulic
Cement by Vicat Needle
• ASTM C666 Standard Test Method for Resistance of Concrete to
Rapid Freezing and Thawing
• ASTM C672 Standard Test Method for Scaling Resistance of
Concrete Surfaces Exposed to Deicing Chemicals
PHYSICAL/CHEMICAL PROPERTIES
Typical results obtained with Quick-Setting Cement when tested in
accordance with the applicable ASTM standards are shown in Table
1. Additionally, Quick-Setting Cement can be built up to a thickness
of 1" - 2" (25.4 - 51 mm) without sag on overhead surfaces.

INSTALLATION
SURFACE PREPARATION
The surface to be repaired should be free of all foreign matter and
loose materials. The bond will be enhanced if all smooth surfaces are
roughened or etched. The application of QUIKRETE
®
Concrete
Bonding Adhesive (#9902) to the area to be patched will further
enhance bonding if the application is greater than 1" (25.4 mm) in
thickness. QUIKRETE
®
Acrylic Fortifier (#8610) should be used with
QUIKRETE
®
Quick-Setting Cement to enhance bond on applications
less than 1" (25.4 mm) in thickness. After initial set, the material may
be trimmed and shaped to match the existing contours of the patch
area.
MIXING
• Add 1 part water to 5 - 5 1/2 parts QUIKRETE
®
Quick-Setting
Cement by volume. Reducing the water will hasten the set time.
• When using Acrylic Fortifier, replace 1/2 gal (1.9 L) of mixing water
with Acrylic Fortifier per 50 lb (22.7 kg) bag. Add only enough water to
get the proper consistency.
