Sikadur® -52 Low Viscosity Injection Resin Product ® Sikadur -52 is a two component, solvent-free, low viscosity injection-liquid, based on high strength epoxy resins. Description Complies with ASTM C881-78 Type I, Grade 1 Class B+C. ® Uses Sikadur -52 is used to fill and seal cavities and cracks in structural components such as bridges, industrial structures, columns, beams, foundations, walls, floors, slabs and water-retaining structures. It not only forms an effective barrier against water infiltration of corrosion promoting media, but also structurally bonds the Construction
concrete sections together.
Advantages Solvent-free. Suitable in both, dry and damp conditions. Useable at low temperatures. Two grades for different climatic conditions (normal and long pot life). Shrinkage-free hardening. High mechanical and adhesive strengths. Hard but not brittle. Very low viscosity. Test Certificates Bautechnisches Versuchs - und Forschungsanstalt Salzburg, Austria. Laboratoire de Ponts et Chaussée C.F.T.E., Aix-en-Provence, France. Ministerio de lndustrie e do Comercio, lnstituto Nacional de Technologia, Rio de Janeiro.
