For the best possible use and to obtain best results, it is
advisable to carry out experiment with Crack Dexpan before
starting work. |
◆ |
When
using Crack Dexpan with highly absorbent materials like concrete,
the holes should be dampened before the mortar is poured,
making sure however, that there is no presence of water. |
◆ |
Large
diameter holes positioned closer together accelerate breaking
times. |
◆ |
Make
sure the holes are clean and no water and residues left in
the holes, or use high-pressure air hose to clean out. |
◆ |
Fresh
mortar should be poured into holes within 5 minutes after
mixing. |
◆ |
Do
not mix more than 2 bags ( 10 kg ) for each lot at a time.
|
◆ |
The
feeding depth should be 100% of the pre-drilled holes. |
◆ |
Do
not plug the holes after filling. Cover them only in the event
of rain by a waterproof sheet. |
◆ |
The
workers on duty have to take synchronized operation, especially
to hard stone.
The quantity of holes each worker responsible to fill has
to be moderate. All the workers on duty shall take synchronized
steps when mixing, stirring and filling, which is the guarantee
of maximum expansive stress of all holes occurring at the
same time. |
◆ |
Crack
Dexpan can only be used in holes. It will not work in existing
cracks of stones or concretes. |
◆ |
Never
fill glass or metal containers with Crack Dexpan mixture,
or any container which widens towards the bottom. The pressure
will shatter the container. |
◆ |
If mixed Crack Dexpan begins to steam in the mixing container,
add some water to dilute and throw it away to an open surface.
