Sika® Injection-216

Structural polyurethane injection resin

Sika® Injection-216 is a 2-part, polyurethane structural injection resin. It is specially formulated for crack injection work by pressure injection.

  • Very good adhesion to concrete, masonry and stone.
  • Suitable for dry, damp and wet conditions
  • Very high mechanical properties
  • Fast curing with or without water contact
  • Reaction time adjustable with accelerator
  • Injectable with 1-component or 2-component pumps
  • Compatible with concrete, mortar, metal, plastic coated components, cable coatings, etc.
  • Resistant to salts, alkali and acids present in construction components or in the ground
  • Prevents the ingress of water and infiltration which can cause reinforcement corrosion

Application

Application Information

Mixing Ratio

A : B = 1 : 1 parts by volume

A : B = 1 : 1,2 parts by weight

Substrate Temperature

> +1 °C

Pot Life

Temperature

Time

+10 °C

~50 minutes

+20 °C

~25 minutes

+30 °C

~10 minutes

The pot life begins when Parts A+B 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, chill Parts A+B before mixing (not below +5 °C).
Application steps

SUBSTRATE QUALITY

Crack injection: Concrete / masonry

  • The substrate surface along the line of the crack capping sealer (i.e. Sikadur®-31+), must be sound, clean, dry or matt damp.
  • It must also be  free from standing water, ice, dirt, oil, grease, coatings, laitance, efflorescence, old surface treatments, all loose particles and any other surface contaminants that could affect adhesion of the capping sealer.

SUBSTRATE PREPARATION

Crack injection: Concrete / masonry

  • Cracks may be dry, damp or wet, but free from standing water.
  • After inserting or bonding injection ports, cap the crack with a capping sealer (i.e. Sikadur®-31+) and allow to cure.
  • Remove any standing water by oil free compressed air.
  • Remove contaminants by purging crack with resin until the resin runs clean and contaminant free.

MIXING

IMPORTANT: Mix full units only.

IMPORTANT: Avoid over-mixing to minimise air entrainment.

Requirement: Use a low speed electric single paddle mixer and stirrer (300–400 rpm) for mixing

Note: Mix only the quantity that can be used within its pot life.

1-Component pump

  1. Add Parts A + B into a clean, dry mixing container.
  2. Mix Parts A + B continuously for ~2,0 minutes until a uniformly coloured mix is achieved.
  3. Add mixed resin into the pump's hopper.

2-Component pump

  1. Add Part A and Part B into the 2 separate pump dispensers.
  2. Set the metering ratio of the pump to: A : B = 1 : 1 parts by volume A : B = 1 : 1,2 parts by weight
  3. Parts A + B will be mixed automatically by the pump`s mixing head (static-mixing element).

CLEANING OF TOOLS

  • Clean all tools and equipment using the Sika® Injection Cleaning System. Refer to the Product Data Sheet.
  • Use Sika® Injection Cleaner C1 for pump cleaning of non-cured resin. Hardened material can only be mechanically removed.
