Non-Shrink Grout
8. Avoid vibration which can cause bleeding and segregation. Shut down
nearby machines for a minimum of 24 hours.
9. Minimum application thickness is 1” (25 mm) and a maximum thickness of
4” (100 mm).
NOTE: For installation where acids and sulfates are present, a protective coating is required. Protect
uncoated aluminum from direct contact with Portland cement-based materials.
Refer to:
1. ACI 351. R-99 Report on Grouting Between Foundations and Bases for
Support Equipment and Machinery
2. ACI 351.2R Foundations for Static Equipment
3. ACI 306R Cold Weather Concreting
4. ACI 305R Hot Weather Concreting
Mixing:
Desired grout consistency:
Flowable: 1 gal (3.8 L) per 50 lb (22.7 kg)
Plastic: 3 qts + 1 pt (3.3 L) per 50 lb (22.7 kg)
1. Only mix with clean potable water. The water quantities shown are
approximate and may vary slightly with the type of equipment and
application conditions.
2. Water demand and mix temperature must be determined using standard
test methods for consistency and temperature measurement at the time of
application.
3. Place 3/4 of desired mixing water, start mixer then slowly add the dry
material. After all of the powder has been added, slowly add the remaining
1/4 water until the desired consistency is achieved.
4. Avoid adding excessive amounts of water that promotes segregation or
bleeding of the grout.
5. Mix for 3 - 5 minutes to ensure a uniform lump free consistency and place
immediately.
Curing:
1. Sakrete Non-Shrink Construction Grout can be exposed under normal
weathering conditions.
2. Forms may be removed as soon as the grout reaches its final set.
3. Prevent rapid water loss by covering the exposed grout surfaces with wet
burlap during the first 48 hours or apply an acceptable water based cure and
seal agent.
4. Protect from freezing for a minimum of 48 hours after placement.
ACI 308 Standard Practice for Curing Concrete.
Precautions:
Air, mix and substrate temperatures should be between 40°F (4°C) and
90°F (32°C).
Colder temperatures or higher humidity conditions will retard set times.
Do not use in applications of high dynamic loading.
Do not retemper grout by adding water.
Do not use as a floor topping or in large areas with an exposed shoulder
around base plates.
Do not add accelerators, retarders, plasticizer or other additives.
Do not apply in application thicknesses <1” (25 mm) or > than 4” (100 mm).
NOTE: Proper application and installation of all Sakrete products are the responsibility of the end user.
