Sikadur 52 Low Viscosity Epoxy Injection Adhesive

Sikadur 52 Low Viscosity Epoxy Injection Adhesive

Sikadur 52 is a 2-component, 100% solids, moisture-tolerant, epoxy adhesive. It is a low-viscosity, high-strength adhesive formulated specifically for grouting both dry and damp cracks. It conforms to the current ASTM C-881, Types I and II, Grade-1, Class C and AASHTO M-235 specifications. Questions? Contact Us.

Use neat for gravity feed or pressure injection of cracks in structural concrete, masonry, wood, etc.
Seal interior slabs and exterior above grade slabs from water, chlorides and mild chemical attack and to improve wearability.

Surface Preparation Surface must be clean and sound. It may be dry or damp, but free of standing water. Remove dust, laitance, grease, curing compounds, impregnations, waxes and any other contaminants.

Preparation Work: Concrete – Should be cleaned and prepared to achieve a laitance and contaminant free, open textured surface by blast cleaning or equivalent mechanical means. Steel – Should be cleaned and prepared thoroughly by blast cleaning or other equivalent mechanical means.

Mixing Proportion 1 part Component ‘B’ to 2 parts Component ‘A’ by volume into a clean pail. Mix thoroughly for 3 minutes with Sika Paddle on low-speed (400-600 rpm) drill until uniformly blended. Mix only that quantity that can be used within its pot life. Application To gravity feed cracks – Blow vee-notched crack clean with oil-free compressed air. Pour neat Sikadur 52 into vee-notched crack. Continue placement until cracks are completely filled. Prior to
filling, seal underside of slab if cracks reflect through.

To pressure inject cracks – Use automated injection equipment or manual method. Set appropriate injection ports based on system used. Seal ports and cracks with Sikadur 31, Hi-Mod Gel, or Sikadur 33. When the epoxy adhesive seal has cured, inject Sikadur 52 with steady pressure. Consult Technical Service for additional information.

To seal slabs – Spread neat mixture of Sikadur® 52 over slab using a roller or squeegee, working material thoroughly into the substrate to ensure penetration. Coverage should be uniform. Coat interior slabs and above-grade exterior slabs only.
