Epoxy Grouts - Sikadur®-42 Grout-Pak PT
Pre-proportioned, epoxy, anchorage protection system
Sikadur®-42 Grout-Pak PT is a 3-component, 100 % solids, moisture-tolerant, epoxy anchorage protection system.
- Ready to mix, pre-proportioned kit.
- Excellent adhesion.
- Impermeable and resistant to chemicals, corrosion, impact and stress.
- Moisture-tolerant.
- Low heat development/low peak exothermic system for large pours.
- High compressive strength.
- Long working time.
- High vibration resistance.
- Fast strength gain.
- Minimal shrinkage/expansion.
- High effective bearing area.
- Good flowability.
Usage
- To protect the anchorages of post-tensioning tendons or bars (i.e. pour-back box) on segmental bridge
projects.

Application Information
Mixing RatioComponent A : B : C = 3.6 : 1 : 34 by weight
Solid / liquid = 7.4 : 1 by weight
Application Steps
SUBSTRATE PREPARATIONSubstrate and other contact areas must be clean, sound, and free of standing water. Remove dust, laitance, oils, grease, curing compounds, waxes, impregnations, foreign particles, coatings and disintegrated materials by mechanical means (i.e. sandblasting, bush hammering). Sandblast metal contact surfaces to a commercial white finish for maximum adhesion. Apply grout immediately to prevent re-oxidizing. Concrete substrate shall have reached its desired strength [3,000 psi (20.7 MPa) minimum] and must be dimensionally stable.
MIXINGPour the entire contents of Components ‘A’ & ‘B’ into an appropriate mixing vessel (e.g. 5 gal. bucket) and mix for 30 seconds with a 1/2 in. Jiffy mixing paddle (5 in. blade diameter) on a low-speed (400-600 rpm) 3/4 in. drive rotary drill, taking care not to entrain air during mixing. It is critical to the performance of the grout that there be no appreciable air bubbles in the resin. Slowly add the entire contents of Component ‘C’ and mix until uniformly blended (approx. 5 minutes).
