Application steps

APPLICATION

When using Sika® Intraplast®-125 M a suitable mix design has to be taken into account and local material sources shall be trialled.
Sika® Intraplast®-125 M shall not be added to dry cement.
Overdosing may increase the entrained air which will give higher workability and a longer working life but lower compressive strength.
Saturated bricks/blocks may cause a delay in setting/ curing.
Support from our Technical Service Department is recommended.

 

Frost:
If frozen and / or if precipitation has occurred, Sika® Intraplast®-125 M may be used after thawing slowly at room temperature followed by intensive remixing.

CLEANING OF TOOLS

Clean all tools and application equipment with water immediately after use. Hardened / cured material can only be removed mechanically.
