Febgrout Flowable

Universal Anchoring Grout

Febgrout Flowable Universal Anchoring Grout is a structural fluid precision grout specifically formulated to give high strength, shrinkage compensation and vibration resistance. This product may be poured or pumped and will fill gaps in concrete from 10mm to 150mm wide. It is suitable for most structural grouting applications such as bridge bearing, machine bedding, parapet legs and stanchion base plates.

  • Easy to use (ready to mix powder).
  • Pre-batched for quality.
  • Just add water.
  • High compressive strength gain.
  • Easy to mix and apply.
  • Contains no chloride admixtures.
  • Shrinkage compensated.
  • Fire rating and protection properties comparable to concrete.
  • Can be pumped or poured.
  • Good mechanical properties.
  • Hard wearing.
  • High water and rain resistance.

Application steps

MIXING

Place the water into a forced action grout mixer or in a clean drum. Slowly add complete bag of Febgrout Flowable into the water and continuously mix for 3 minutes in mixer to achieve a uniform and lump free consistency. Alternatively use a slow speed drill (200-500 rpm) and spiral paddle mixer.

APPLICATION

Pour the mixed grout into the header box/hopper ensuring continuous grout flow during the complete grouting operation to avoid trapping air. Use steel banding or chains to assist flow where necessary. For large volume placement, grout pumps are recommended. For cold weather working consider using warm water to assist with achieving strength gain & other physical properties.

CURING TREATMENT

After the grout has initially hardened, remove formwork and trim edges while concrete is ‘green’. Protect the fresh material from premature drying using appropriate curing method e.g. curing compound such as Sikafloor® ProSeal, moist geo-textile membrane, hessian, polythene sheet, etc. In cold weather apply heat blankets to maintain a constant temperature.

CLEANING OF TOOLS

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