SAFETY:
READ and UNDERSTAND the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) before using
this product. WARNING: Wear protective clothing and equipment. See HMIS
block. For emergency information, call CHEMTREC at 800-424-9300
or 703-527-3887 (outside USA). KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.
PREPARATION:
Remove all unsound concrete, grease, oil, paint, and any other foreign
material that will inhibit performance. Prior to grout placement, all surfaces
must be clean and saturated with water for 24 hours. Remove excess water
before placing the grout. Provide air relief holes where necessary if grouting
is beneath large plates.
Suggestions in Form Work: Wood form work or other absorbent forms should
be coated with a form release oil to prevent grout adherence and water
absorption. Design form work to facilitate rapid, continuous and complete ll-
ing of the space to be grouted. Use methods that will enable the grout to ow
by gravity between the surfaces and keep the grout in full contact with these
surfaces until it has hardened.
Refer to: ACI 351.R-99 Report on Grouting between Foundations and Bases
for Support Equipment and Machinery for important information and recom-
mendations.
TECHNICAL DATA:

ASTM C 942 115% 140%
24 hours 3,000 psi 2,000 psi
(21 MPa) (14 MPa)
7 days 6,500 psi 6,000 psi

MIXING:
Add only clean water. The water quantities shown are approximate and may
vary slightly with type of equipment and application conditions. Water demand
and mix temperature must be determined using standard test methods for
consistency and temperature measurement at the time of application.
Desired Grout Consistency:
Flowable (Pumping Consistency), 50 lbs. (22.7kg) Grout, approximately 1.1
Gallons Water (4.2 L)
Plastic (Trowel Consistency), 50 lbs. (22.7 kg) Grout, approximately 1.0 Gallon
Water (3.8 L)
PLACEMENT:
Use a mixer large enough to permit continuous placement before any part of
the grout has set. Place the grout quickly. Rodding the grout lightly will help
move material. Avoid vibration which can cause bleeding and segregation.
Shut down nearby machines.
The air, mix & substrate temperatures should all be between 40°F (4.4°C)
and 90°F (32.2°C).
CURING:
SAKRETE Construction Grout can be exposed under normal weathering
conditions. Forms may be removed as soon as the grout reaches its nal set.
Protect from freezing for a minimum of 48 hours after placement. ACI 308-
Standard Practice for Curing Concrete.
STORAGE:
Store in a tightly closed container off the oor in a dry place.
COVERAGE:
50 lbs. covers 0.45 cu. ft. (12.7 L)
