Product Description
Uses Solvent-free, thixotropic, epoxy-based two-component adhesive mortar As an adhesive for bonding reinforcements, adhesive mortar and plastic filler to: Concrete, stone. Steel. Epoxy. For structural bonding of: Sika CFRP laminates to concrete. Sika CFRP laminates to timber. Steel plates to concrete. Concrete elements. Bridge segments. Kerbstones to concrete, etc. For bonding of: Starter bars. Wall anchors. Fixings, etc. For vertical and overhead filling of: Holes. Dimensional inaccuracies etc. Long pot life. Long open time. Can be applied to slightly damp concrete surfaces. Non-sag in vertical and overhead applications. Good temperature resistance Sets without residual tack, even in high atmospheric humidity. Solvent free. Rapid curing, even at low temperatures. High temperature resistance. High creep resistance under permanent load. High mechanical strength. High abrasion and shock resistance. Shrinkage-free curing. Easy to mix and apply. Components come in different colours therefore homogeneity of mix is easy to check. Comp. (A): white. Comp. (B): black. Comp. (A + B) mixed: light grey. Comp. (A + B) mixed: creamy paste 5 kg units (A+B) pre-measured Large-size packing on request.

Application
Mix Ratio Substrate Comp. (A+B) =3:1 by weight and volume. Concrete. stone: Clean, free from oil and grease, dry, no loose particles or laitance. Concrete age, depending on climate, 3 to 6 weeks. Preparation: Sandblast, high-pressure water jet. If applied on damp concrete, work Sikadur -30 well into the surface. Max. substrate moisture:10%. Min. adhesive strength of concrete substrate: 1.5 N/mm2. If the concrete surface has large uneven sections or holes after preparation, these must first be filled with Sikadur -41. Timber: Clean, free from oil and grease. Sandblast or grind well. Steel: Free from grease and oil, free from rust, scale and rolling skin. Preparation: Sandblast SA 2.5. Beware of condensation (dew point). If the cleaned steel is not bonded immediately, the surface must be given one coat of Sikagard -62 to protect it from further corrosion. Consumption: approx. 2 0.3 kg/m . Epoxy: Free from oil and grease. Grind well using coarse abrasive. Stir the material well in the original containers. Add component (B) to component (A). Mix with an electric hand mixer for about 3 minutes until all the coloured streaks have disappeared in the mix, at the sides and on the bottom of the can. Mix at low speed so that as little air as possible is entrained (500 rpm max.). The pot life begins when the resin hardener are mixed. It is shorter at high temperatures and longer at low temperatures. The greater the quantity mixed, the shorter the pot life. To obtain longer workability at high temperatures, the mixed adhesive may be divided into portions. Another method is to chill components (A) and (B) before mixing them. The well-mixed Sikadur -30 is applied with a spatula, trowel or float to both the concrete or timber surface and the steel or Sika CFRP laminate surface, so that the thickness is 0.5 - 2 mm. The adhesive must be applied with great care to the concrete surface to ensure that all voids are filled and no cavities are left. Reinforcements must be positioned within the open time of the adhesive. This is done with specially prepared supports. It is very important that the steel parts are pressed evenly on to the concrete surface until the adhesive is forced out the sides. Because curing is very rapid at normal temperatures, the supports can be removed after 2 or 3 days (see curing times at different temperatures). As a final check, the loads are tapped with a hammer for cavities. So that the adhesive material can be checked for curing rate and final strength, it is recommended that samples be taken at site and their compressive and/or adhesive strength measured. Clean tools immediately with Colma Cleaner. Wash hands and skin thoroughly in warm soap water. When uncured, Sikadur -30 components (A + B), are water-pollutants and should not be discharged into drains, waterways or the ground. Colma Cleaner and Sikadur -30 residues must always be disposed of in accordance with the regulations. Cured material can only be removed mechanically. Min. 30 minutes (at +35C). In a liquid state material contaminates water. Do not dispose of into water or soil but according to local regulations. Comp. (A): Non-hazardous. Comp. (B): 8/65 c). Product can cause skin irritation. Wear protective clothing (gloves, safety glasses). Cover hands with barrier cream before application. In contact with eyes or membranes, rinse thoroughly with clean warm water immediately and seek medical attention without delay. Com p. (A): Class 4, under the relevant health and Safety codes. Observe warning on packing. Comp. (B): Non-Toxic.
