2 Metal surfaces (iron and steel) should be free from scale, rust, oil and grease. Absorbent substrates must be saturatedthoroughly, but there should be no standing pre-mixed powder is added to water to suit the desired consistency. For flowable consistency, approximately litres of water per bag is required. Mix mechanically for 2-3 mins with a slow speed drill (max. 500 RPM) until a smooth even consistency is mixing., allow the mortar to rest for a while, stirring lightly to ensure that airdisplayed by the grouting is allowed to escape.

3 When carrying out base plate grouting, ensure that sufficient pressure head is maintained to keep mortar flow uninterrupted. Make sure that the necessary formwork is firmly in place and kept water light. Sika Grout 215 may be placed in thickness up to a maximum of 50mm at one large areas are to be placed, it is important to maintain a continuous flow throughout. It is necessary to organize the work sequence properly (manpower, materials, etc.) to ensure an uninterrupted flow. In such large areas, Sika Grout 215 may also be pumped. A heavy duty diaphragm pump is recommended for this purpose.

4 Screw feed and piston pumps may also be used. Specific ApplicationGrouting under base plate: Use flowable consistencyGrouting Anchor bolts: Use trowellable consistencyGrouting large volumes: For sections thicker than 50mm it is necessary to fillthe Sika Grout 215 with graded 10mm silt free aggregate to minimize temperaturerise. The quantity of aggregate should not exceed 1 part Sika Grout 215 by such mixes, a conventional concrete mixer and pump may be all tools and equipment with water immediately after use. Hardened mortarcan only be mechanically RecommendationsUse Sika Grout 215 for repairs to concrete structure and grouting only.
