SikaGrout Cable PT
High Performance, Zero Bleed, Cementitious Grout

Construction

Description

SikaGrout Cable PT is a non-shrink, cementitious cable grout with a unique 2-stage

shrinkage compensating mechanism. It is non-metallic & contains no chlorides. With a
special blend of shrinkage-reducing & plasticizing/water reducing agents. SikaGrout
Cable PT compensates for shrinkage in both the plastic & hardened states.
Suitable for use in hot climatic conditions.

Uses

Advantages

Use for horizontal & vertical grouting of ducts within bonded, post-tensioned
structures.

Use to grout, fill or repair voids with ducts of post-tensioning strands for
corrosion protection.

Use for grouting tight clearances.

Allows shrinkage & repairing of voids within ducts of post tensioned structures.

Does not contain Aluminium Powder or any components which generate

hydrogen gas, carbon dioxide or oxygen.

Easy to use. Just add water.

Non-metallic will not stain or rust.

Zero bleed even at high flow.

Low heat build-up.

Excellent for pumping: Does not segregate...even at at high flow/Pressure.

Meets BS EN 447:2007.

Positive expansion when tested in accordance with BS EN 445

For additional corrosion protection, add 100 gm of Sika Ferrogard 901 per bag
of grout by replacing same amount of mixing water if needed.

Application Details
Substrate Preparation

Ducts: Ensure that ducts, voids, openings, inlets & outlets are clean & free of debris,
fule, oils, other contaminants, & site trash at all times.
Other grouting applications :
Remove all dirt, oil, grease & other bond inhibiting materials by mechanical means.
Anchor bolts to be grouted must be de-greased with suitable solvent which do not
inhibit grout bonding.

Forming

Ensure forms & ducts will retain grout without leakage.

Mixing

For best results use high shear mixer at approximately 1800 rpm. Mix for approx. 3
minutes, after the addition of the last bag or until a homogenous mix is achieved.
Method of mixing may significantly affect the material properties, particularly flow. At
higher temperatures &/or with higher water volumes, the grout will behave Nonthixotropically.
At higher temperature use chilled water & store the bags in a cool place to keep the
mixed grout temperature below 25C wherever possible.
In cold climatic conditions use of warm water is advisable & the storage of the bags in
a warm place is essential to ensure the mixed grout temperature above 10C.

Important Notes

Do not use as a patching or overlay mortar or in unconfined areas.

Material must be placed within 60 minutes of mixing.

Do not use excess water.

Do not use hardened or lumpy grout caused by torn or water damaged bags.

Do not mix by hand.

Cleaning

Clean equipment and mixer immediately after application with water. Hardened
material can only be removed mechanically.

Special notes

The grout should be pumped with a suitable device to provide continuous flow.
Where presoaking of the duct/hole is essential, necessary care should be taken to
ensure that there is no left over in those spaces, before grouting operation starts.
