Benefits:

• Single pack system with just the addition of water
• Flows yet remains cohesive for effective filling of Tie-Rod Openings
• Drying Shrinkage Compensated
• Plastic Shrinkage Controlled with Fiber Reinforced
• Early Strength gain
• Good Bond to Base Concrete
• Sufficient Paste to get comparable surface finishing matching surrounding Concrete
• Sufficient Cohesiveness to enable using Small Pumps for faster turnaround of filling work.

Method of Application:

• Clean the Tie Rod/wall tie holes/gap / opening to be filled and remove loose unsound concrete particles, dust, oil, paint, grease, waterproof coating etc. from the entire hole/gap and gap/hole should be free of all contamination which hinders adhesion
• 2Saturate the substrate with water to prevent absorption of water from the mixed material by flushing water inside the holes to be filled.
• 3Add around 80% to 85% of the predefined amount of water in the mixing vessel to SILICOcrete TRG powder slowly under continuous mixing. Preferably use a slow speed mixer. Keep mixing for 2 minutes. Add balance quantity of 15%-20% of mixing water and again mix for another 2-3 minutes to form homogeneous, uniform consistent workable mix.
• 4Now fill the Cement Mortar Caulking/Grouting Gun with the above prepared Silicocrete TRG workable mix fully and use a suitable Nozzle provided with the Gun which will exactly be compatible Tie Rod opening.
• Start filling the Tie Rod/Wall Tie holes with the above workable mix of SILICOcrete TRG from one end by applying required pressure using Cement Mortar Caulking/Grouting Gun till the mix travels smoothly throughout the hole by filling entire space in the hole and is seen reaching the other end of the hole without excessive ooze-out from the other end.
• Now remove the Gun from the first end and finish both the ends perfectly using flat thapi so that both the ends are level in line with the parent surface.
• The above same procedure should be followed for filling all other Tie Rod / Wall Tie holes.
• The Silicocrete TRG Mix should be used within the prescribed pot life.
