SikaScreed® Rapid-75
SikaScreed® Rapid-75 is a polymer modified, rapid setting, load bearing and over-coatable, horizontal levelling mortar that is designed for application in a minimum layer thickness of 12 mm. It is shrinkage compensated, plus it has high abrasion resistance and compressive strength.
- Pre-bagged for quality
- Just add water
- High early strength
- Rapid setting
- Contains no chloride admixtures
- Non corrosive to steel
- Can be overcoated
Usage
SikaScreed® Rapid-75 is a floor screed to form ramps, level or raise concrete floors at a thickness between 12–75mm in one working step.SikaScreed® Rapid-75 is useable as screed for industrial service conditions on it's own but especially when sealed with a PU or EP resin top coat from medium to high load (heavy-traffic + forklift pallet truck with impact load).
SikaScreed® Rapid-75 is useable as screed for exterior and interior areas.

MIXING
SikaScreed® Rapid-75 levelling mortar: 2.5 - 2.9 litres of water per 25 kg bag.
In a suitable container, mix the SikaScreed® Rapid-75 and water in the specified ratio with an electric mixer (maximum 500 rpm.) until it is smooth and homogeneous.
It is important to mix for minimum 3 minutes.
APPLICATION
BONDED SCREED
Bonding bridge
SikaScreed®-20 EBB: To the prepared dry or matt damp substrate without any standing water. Apply SikaScreed® Rapid-75 ‘wet on wet’ within 30 minutes of mixing (+20°C). Also refer to SikaScreed®-20 EBB Product Data Sheet.
Note: If the SikaScreed®-20 EBB bonding bridge has dried, it must be removed mechanically and replaced before application of SikaScreed® Rapid-75.
Mix the SikaScreed® Rapid-75 in a paddle mixer and apply on the correctly prepared substrate and screed off to level with battens. To obtain optimum surface strength, finish the SikaScreed® Rapid-75 with suitable trowels or floats. Do not use heavy troweling machines (like sit up power floating machines).
Spraying of water onto the surface as treatment is strongly prohibited and lead to less surface strength.
Don´t forget curing! Curing must start immediately after the last finishing operation, using polyethylene
sheet.
In drafty areas, open spaces, and in a very dry climate, the freshly applied mortar immediately has to be covered with a polyethylene sheet (before finishing).
Don´t apply SikaScreed® Rapid-75 in a summery climate direct in the sunlight.
When expected temperatures are above +25°C, the start application must be after reaching the daily maximum temperature.
The substrate, the dry mortar (bags) and the water must be kept cool.
CLEANING OF TOOLS
Clean all tools and application equipment with water immediately after use.
Hardened/cured material can only be mechanically removed.
