Notes

  • Remove all defective concrete to a sound substrate; remove loose rust and scale from exposed reinforcement
  • Cut around the perimeter of the repair area to a minimum depth of 6 mm to avoid feather edges
  • Primer ratio: Unicell Primer : Cement = 1:1.5 by volume OR 1:2.0 by weight
  • Mixing: whole bag of Unicell 40 with 4-4.5 litres clean water using a mechanical mixer
  • Application thickness should be between 6-40 mm per layer
  • Intermediate layers should be primed before the next layer is applied
  • Minimum cover to reinforcement should be 10 mm
  • Store in undamaged, unopened original sealed packaging in dry conditions; protect from direct sunlight, moisture, and frost

FAQ

What is the difference between Unicell 40 and Unicell 25?

Unicell 40 is a Class 40 high-strength structural repair mortar (28-day compressive strength 48 MPa, elastic modulus 18 GPa), while Unicell 25 is a Class 25 repair mortar (28-day compressive strength 30 MPa, elastic modulus 10 GPa). Class 40 is suitable for structural repairs to higher-strength concrete.

What is the maximum layer thickness?

6-40 mm per layer. Greater thickness may be possible when filling pockets. For multi-layer application, prime the previous layer before applying the next once it has hardened.
