• Repairs by methods 3.1, 3.3, 4.4, 7.1 and 7.2 as set out in EN 1504-10

Product Use
Suitable for use in temperatures between +5°C and +25°C. Substrates should be clean, dry and free from all dust and grease. A pull-off test should then assess the effectiveness of decontamination. Cut back the repair area’s edges to a depth of at least 10 mm to avoid feather-edging and provide a square edge. Break out the complete repair area to a minimum depth of 10 mm up to the cut edge. The preparation of the concrete substrate is of critical importance.

KPRO CRM 201 Repair Mortar only requires the addition of clean potable water. K-PRO CRM products should be mixed in a suitable forced action mixer or spiral screw paddle drill at a low speed to ensure a lump-free, smooth, consistent mortar. Mix the contents of a 25kg bag with 4.0-4.5 litres of clean potable water. Water should be measured and placed in the mixing container before adding the full 25kg bag of dry powder and mixed for a minimum of 3-5 minutes taking care not to entrain air.

Expose and remove any corroded steel in the area to be repaired. Remove all loose scale and corrosion deposits. Steel should be cleaned to a bright condition, including the
back of exposed steel bars, using an abrasive-blasting technique. If corrosion has occurred due to the presence of chlorides, the steel should be high-pressure washed with clean water immediately after abrasive-blasting to remove corrosion products from scratches and depressions of the steel surface. Prime the prepared steel (if present), using a brush, with KPRO Repair-PRIMEX, ensuring complete coverage and drying.
