HYDRO MIX & FIX a pre-blended grey coloured powder incorporating selected aggregates and is chemically formulated to give controlled high early strength properties.
HYDRO MIX & FIX is a repair material for concrete /pavements and reaches adequate strength for trafficking normally within 1 hour. It is also used as a repair medium at low ambient temperatures.
typical applications
- Used in situations where minimum delay and work disruption is of utmost importance
- Repairs to industrial floors
- Repair of concrete roads
- Repairs to all types of pre-cast concrete
- Crane rails and small base plates
- Loading bays and Platforms
- Beams / columns / plinths
- Used as a bedding mortar
- Bridge decks and nosings
- Cold room floor areas
- Around fixing bolts and pipes
- Repairs to honeycombing
- Raising and levelling manhole covers, gratings, hydrants, etc.
- Sewerage repairs
advantages
The advantages over conventional repair materials are:
- High early strength
- Minimum delays to traffic and production. When used to repair concrete paving it allows the opening to traffic within one hour after laying
- Pre-mixed – only requires the addition of water (see Mixing)
- High bond strength. No secondary bonding agents required ( +- 7 times greater than that of concrete)
- Highly durable, excellent resistance to de-icing salts
- No curing required
- Can be placed in sub-zero temperatures Non-shrink
- No pre-saturation to substrate required
- Thermal expansion and contraction similar to that of Ordinary Portland Cement
