3 Easy Steps to SUCCEED: Drill, Mix & Fill
1) Drilling *Please call for applications with depths less than 6 inch..
Drill holes using a hammer drill and appropriate drill bit specific to the
rock or concrete type. (Diagram 1)
Holes should be drilled no further than 1 ft (30 cm) apart. Note: In
reinforced concrete recommended no more than 8 in (20 cm) apart.
Recommended hole diameter is 1.5 in (3.8 cm), not to exceed 2 in (5
cm). Drill holes should be 80-90% of the depth, do not go through.
2) Mixing
In a flat bottom bucket, combine 0.4 gallon (1.5 liter) of water with
one 11 lb. (5 kg.) bag of Dexpan
®
. (Diagram 2)
Mix well (a drill and paddle is recommended). If mixing with a stick
or other method, make sure Dexpan
®
is completely dissolved into the
water. Mix to a slurry.
3) Filling
Clean holes before filling. Using an air hose to remove excess dust
from drilling.
Dexpan
®
slurry should be poured into holes within 10-15 minutes
after mixing. Do not fill to the top, only fill the holes about 1/2 to 1
inch (2.5 cm) from the top.
Pour well mixed Dexpan
®
slurry into holes. Agitating the Dexpan
®
in
the hole to make sure no air is trapped in holes. Suggestion: Use a
rod or stick to poke holes. (Diagram 3)
A grout pump might be required to fill horizontal holes. Caps might
be needed for horizontal holes, but only necessary to hold Dexpan
®
in the holes.
Coverage: Normally one 44 lb. (20 kg.) box of Dexpan
®
can fill up to
35 lineal feet (10 m) of 1.5 inches (3.8 cm) diameter holes. You might
not have to fill every hole depending on application.
Cracking Or Cutting Time: Properly mixed, the cracks may appear
after 2 hours of filling drilled holes, depending on ambient temperature,
humidity, rock or concrete hardness. Give it 24 hours for best results.
CAUTIONS:
Read safety and operation instruction CAREFULLY.
A pair of safety glasses, rubber gloves and a dust mask is required.
Avoid eyes, skin contact. Do not breathe dust.
DO NOT look directly into filled holes as BLOWOUTS may occur.
Keep Dexpan
®
in DRY storage. Seal container after use.
Select the correct type of Dexpan
®
for your temperature range.
