Description
SAB® Crystal 410is a unique sealing compound designed to expand rapidly when exposed to moisture making it a self-healing joint material for construction joint applications.
SAB®Crystal 410 methodology
As preparation:
- Cleaning scope of work area properly.
- Spraying the outer side with water, the Property of this material it needs wet area to make the required strong interaction.
- Puncture the surface by making tiny holes, this will ensure perfect absorption.
- Cleaning these small holes and insures it dry; taking into consideration the whole area is still wet.
How to implement:
- Mixing SAB®Crystal 410 concentrate with desalinated water, in this standard : each one amount of water requires three amounts of this material. The blended quantity should be using within 30 minutes.
- Then we start to fill the holes with this mixture and smoothing these holes to be matching with the whole surface.
- Treating the joint area between water tank ground and walls.
- As final step: implement the supporting material over these holes within 6 hours at latest.
SAB®Crystal 410 specification:
professional performing this system will form integral part from the concrete slab even in slab crash cases.
- Its implementation could be on any concrete slab sides.
- Water proofing system and having high resistance against chemicals materials.
- Effective against hydrostatic pressure.
- Easy to apply with shortage time and cost.
- Doesn’t weaken the concrete or breaking it.
- Doesn’t need any extra protection after execution.
- Minimizing the existing cracks.
- Non poison as well as eco-friendly. So it is safe to be used as a waterproofing material inside or outside the water tank.
- Protect the concrete slab and the inner supporting iron.
- Lightweight materials moreover, it can be used even on an old concrete without adding an extra weight. While in other insulation system we have to consider this matter specifically.
