Thermal Resistance
Short-term, maximum 7 days | +60 °C |
IMPORTANT:
No simultaneous mechanical and chemical strain
While the product is exposed to temperatures up to +60 °C, do not also subject it to chemical and/or mechanical strain, as it may cause damage to the product.
Application
Mixing Ratio

Product Temperature
Minimum | +15 °C |
Maximum | +30 °C |
Ambient Air Temperature
Minimum | +15 °C |
Maximum | +30 °C |
Relative Air Humidity
80 % r.h. max.
Dew Point
Beware of condensation. The substrate and uncured applied product must be at least +3 °C above dew point to reduce the risk of condensation or blooming on the surface of the applied product. Low temperatures and high humidity conditions increase the probability of blooming.
Substrate Temperature
Minimum | +15 °C |
Maximum | +30 °C |
Substrate Moisture Content
< 4 % parts by weight (Sika® Tramex moisture meter)
No rising moisture (ASTM D4263, polyethylene sheet)
The substrate must be visibly dry with no standing water.

Strictly follow installation procedures as defined in Method Statements, application manuals and working instructions which must always be adjusted to the actual site conditions.
EQUIPMENT
APPLICATION EQUIPMENT
Refer to individual application text.
MIXING EQUIPMENT
Electric double paddle mixer (> 700 W, 300 to 400 rpm)
MIXING
For self-smoothing wearing layer
- Mix Part A (resin) for ~10 seconds with a single paddle mixer (300–400 rpm).
- Add Part B (hardener) to Part A.
- Switch to an electric double paddle mixer (300–400 rpm, > 700 W).
- While mixing Parts A + B, gradually add the required filler or aggregates.
- (Optional) If necessary, gradually add the required amount of Sika® Extender T (refer to Consumption).
- Mix for a further 2 minutes until a uniform mix is achieved.
- To ensure thorough mixing, pour materials into another container and mix again to achieve a smooth and uniform mix.
- During the final mixing stage, scrape down the sides and bottom of the mix-ing container with a flat or straight edge trowel at least once to ensure com-plete mixing.
APPLICATION
IMPORTANT:
Temporary heating
If temporary heating is required, do not use gas, oil, paraffin or other fossil fuel heaters. These produce large quantities of both carbon dioxide and water vapour, which may adversely affect the finish. For heating, use only electric powered warm air blower systems.
IMPORTANT:
Performing pre-trials
Pre-trials/mock-up applications must be performed and procedures agreed with all parties before full project application.
IMPORTANT:
Temporary moisture barrier
Before application, confirm substrate moisture content, relative air humidity, dew point, substrate, air and product temperatures. If moisture content is > 4 % parts by weight, Sika®floor® EpoCem® may be applied as a Temporary Moisture Barrier (T.M.B.) system.
