Usage
PRO-POXY 2000 NORMAL SET or PRO-POXY 2000 DEEP POUR (LPL) are ideal for high stress applications found in gas transmission, refining, chemical processing, pulp and paper, steel and other heavy industrial equipment installations. New equipment installations, quick re-grouting applications, and foundations subject to chemical attack are suitable for PRO-POXY 2000 NORMAL SET or PRO-POXY 2000 DEEP POUR (LPL) epoxy grout.
Appearance
Mixed color - tan
Shelf Life: 2 years in original unopened container
Storage Conditions: Store at 40-95°F (5-35°C)
Temperature
Important: Epoxy resins are temperature-sensitve and care should be taken to condition all components (including component "C" aggregate) to between 75°F and 90°F (24-32°C) for a minimum of 24 hrs. prior to mixing and placement. Temperatures colder than stated range increase viscosity of resins and inhibit mixing and flow of grouting materials. Temperatures warmer than stated range decrease viscosity of resins, hasten the cure and reduce the working time of the grout.

Finishing
When forms are filled to desired elevation, exposed horizontal surfaces of PRO-POXY 2000 NORMAL SET or PRO-POXY 2000 DEEP POUR (LPL) may be finished with a surfactant such as xylol or toluene and a paintbrush or small hand trowel. Surfactant should be lightly sprayed or misted on surface, DO NOT PUDDLE on surface. This process can be repeated every 30 minutes until surfaces are firm. |
Application
PLACEMENT CONSIDERATIONS
SURFACE PREPARATION: New Concrete - Fresh concrete must be allowed to cure for a minimum of 28 days to allow for hydration and shrinkage prior to placement of PRO-POXY 2000 NORMAL SET or PRO-POXY 2000 DEEP POUR (LPL). Please contact UNITEX Technical Service before attempting to place these products on "green" concrete. All surface laitance and fines shall be removed by a light pneumatic chipping hammer, sandblasting or other abrasive means in order to expose sound aggregate and leave a strong bond surface for grout.
Old Concrete - Existing foundations should be checked for cracks and repaired. Contact UNITEX Technical Service for a complete selection of injection resins available for repair. Use light pneumatic chipping hammer, sandblasting or other abrasive means to remove all weak, oil soaked concrete until clean, sound surface is exposed.
Metal Surfaces - All metal surfaces to come in contact with grout should be sandblasted to white metal finish and wiped clean with solvent. Items not intended to bond to grout, such as leveling screws, wedges and bolts, must be protected with wax, caulk, duct tape or similar.
FORM PREPARATION: Epoxy grouts require heavy duty forms. A sheet of 3/4" plywood and proper bracing should be used to hold the force of the weight of the grout (140 lbs./64 kg. per cu. ft.). Forms should be coated with a minimum of two coats of an industrial grade paste wax to facilitate removal of forms after cure. Forms should have 45° angle chamfer strips at all vertical corners and horizontal grout grade elevation in order to eliminate sharp corners. Caulk, putty or similar sealant should be used to render the forms "watertight." Forms should be designed to allow for a hydraulic head to facilitate the placement of PRO-POXY 2000 NORMAL SET or PRO-POXY 2000 DEEP POUR (LPL).
TOOLS & MATERALS CHECK LIST: PRO-POXY 2000 NORMAL SET or PRO-POXY 2000 DEEP POUR (LPL), Flat Head Screwdriver, Mortar Mixer, Water, Hard Hats, Wheel Barrow, Hand Tools, Protective Clothing, Buckets, Rags, Floor Protection, Shovels, Rubber Gloves, Citrus Cleaner, Jiffy Mixer, Safety Glasses
MIXING: PRO-POXY 2000 NORMAL SET or PRO-POXY 2000 DEEP POUR (LPL) are shipped in a pre-measured .5 cu. ft./.014 cu. m. unit or a 2 cu. ft./.056 cu. m. unit. Mix these products ONLY in complete units. DO NOT thin or add any solvents or foreign materials to these products. ALWAYS follow all published temperature guidelines before mixing.
.5 cu. f./.014 cu. m. unit: Components A-Resin and B-Hardener are packaged in separate containers inside a 5 gal./18.8 L mixing pail. Pour both liquid components into pail and mix thoroughly for 3 minutes with a Jiffy Mixer on low-speed (300 rpm) until material is a uniform consistency. NOTE: Keep mixer at bottom of pail to avoid introducing air. After liquid components are mixed, slowly add component C-Aggregate. Mix only until all aggregate is wetted out. Pour mixed grout into forms.
2 cu. ft./.056 cu. m. unit: Component A-Resin is packaged in a 5 gal./18.8 L pail, component B-Hardener is packaged in a 2gal./7.57 liter pail, component C-Aggregate is packaged in four 60 lb. poly-lined bags. Pour component B-Hardener into 5 gal./18.8 liter pail containing component A-Resin. Mix material thoroughly for 3 minutes with a Jiffy Mixer on a low-speed (300 rpm) drill motor until a uniform consistency is achieved. NOTE: Keep mixer at bottom of pail to avoid introducing air. Pour liquids into mortar mixer, making sure to remove all resins from sides and bottom of pail with spatula or similar tool. Introduce first bag of component C-aggregate prior to starting mixer. Start mixer and slowly add the remaining three bags of aggregate. Mix only until all aggregate is wetted out. DO NOT OVER-MIX!
PLACEMENT: PRO-POXY 2000 NORMAL SET or PRO-POXY 2000 DEEP POUR (LPL) should be poured into forms at one location in order to allow a uni-directional flow. Use of a header box will ease the placement of the finished product. Strict adherence to temperature considerations will assist the placement properties. Check forms frequently for leaks. Plug leaks with a hydraulic cement or putty. PRO-POXY 2000 NORMAL SET or PRO-POXY 2000 DEEP POUR (LPL) will not self-seal.
Cleanup
PRO-POXY 2000 NORMAL SET or PRO-POXY 2000 DEEP POUR (LPL) are low exotherm grout. The extended working time allows for easy soap and water cleanup of tools, mixers and work area while PRO-POXY 2000 NORMAL SET or PRO-POXY 2000 DEEP POUR (LPL) are in the plastic stage. For materials that have started to set, UNITEX CITRUS CLEANER, Xylol or other approved solvent may be used.
