Cementitous Grouts - SikaGrout®-212
General Purpose cementitious grout
SikaGrout®-212 is a one-component, ready to mix, free flowing, non-shrink, cementitious grout with a unique 2-stage shrinkage compensating mechanism.
- Easy to use (ready to mix powder)
- Shrinkage compensated properties in both the plastic and hardened states
- Multiple fluidity with a single component
- Good bond to concrete
- Non-metallic, will not stain or rust
- Contains no chloride
- Blend of shrinkage-reducing and plasticizing/water-reducing agents
- Low heat build-up
- Excellent for pumping: does not segregate, even at high flow. No build-up on equipment hopper
- Superior freeze/thaw resistance
- Resistant to oil and water
Usage
- General purpose grouting
- Machine and column base plates
- Anchor rods, bearing plates
- Ram in place as a dry pack
- Trowel-apply as a medium flow
- Pour or pump as high flow
- Bedding joints in pre-cast concrete sections
- Filling cavities, voids, gaps and recesses
- On grade, above and below grade
- Indoors and out

Application Steps
MIXING- Pour the water in the recommended proportion into a suitable mixing container.
- While mixing slowly, add the powder to the water.
- Mix thoroughly for 3 minutes with low speed (< 500 rpm) hand drill mixer to avoid entraining too much air and until homogenous with no lumps.
EXTENSION WITH AGGREGATES
- For deeper applications (plastic and flowable consistancy only), 25 lbs. of 3/8" (9.5 mm) coarse aggregate can be added.
- The aggregate must be non-reactive (reference ASTM C-1260, C-227 and C-289), clean, well graded, saturated surface dry, have low absorption and high density, and comply with ASTM C-33 size number 8 per Table 2.
- Variances in aggregate may result in different strengths.
- Add pea gravel after the water and SikaGrout®-212.
APPLICATION- Within 15 minutes after mixing, place grout into forms in normal manner to avoid air entrapment.
- Vibrate, pump, or ram grout as necessary to achieve flow or compaction. SikaGrout®-212 must be confined in either the horizontal or vertical direction leaving minimum exposed surface.
- SikaGrout®-212 is an excellent grout for pumping, even at high flow.
- For pump recommendations, contact Technical Service.
- After grout has achieved final set, remove forms, trim or shape exposed grout shoulders to designed profile.
CURING TREATMENTWet cure for a minimum of 3 days or apply a curing compound which complies with ASTM C-309 on exposed surfaces.
CLEANING OF TOOLSClean all tools and application equipment with water immediately after use.
