Six (6) months from date of production if stored as stated.
Storage Conditions
Store properly in undamaged and unopened original sealed packaging in dry and cool conditions. Liquid component must be protected from frost.
Density
Fresh mortar density: ~ 2.00 kg/l
Compressive Strength
3 days | ~ 20 N/mm² |
28 days | ~ 35 N/mm² |
Modulus of Elasticity in Compression
Static: ~ 8.4 kN/mm²
Tensile Strength
Cured in water: | ~ 3.2 N/mm² after 14 days exposure |
Cured in air: | ~ 4.5 N/mm² after 14 days exposure |
Application
Ambient Air Temperature
+8°C min. / +35°C max
Substrate Temperature
+8°C min. / +35°C max
Pot Life
~ 30 minutes at +20°C
Waiting Time / Overcoating
+10°C | ~ 12 hours |
+20°C | ~ 6 hours |
+30°C | ~ 3 hours |
If waiting time period exceeds 24 hours, lightly blastclean the surface. SikaTop® Seal-107 DRYSEAL can be overpainted using solvent based primers or coatings. SikaTop® Seal-107 DRYSEAL must cure for a minimum of 7 days before overcoating.
Consumption
Consumption is dependent on the substrate roughness, surface profile and thickness of the layer applied. As a guide, ~ 2.0 kg/m²/mm (excluding allowances for loss wastage, surface profile and porosity, etc.).
- 1 unit of 20 kg yields ~ 10 litres of mortar
- 1 unit of 5 kg yields ~ 2.5 litres of mortar
MIXING
Used as slurry: A : B = 1 : 4 (parts by weight)
Used as mortar: A : B = 1 : 4.5 (parts by weight)
Mixing Time: ~ 3 minutes. Mixing Tools: SikaTop® Seal-107 DRYSEAL must be mechanically mixed using a forced action mixer or in a clean drum using a drill and paddle (max. 500 rpm). A normal concrete free fall mixer is NOT suitable.
APPLICATION
Shake Part A before using it. Pour approximately half of Part A into the mixing container and add Part B slowly while mixing. Add the remainder of Part A and continue mixing until a uniform lump free consistency is achieved. The surface must be pre-wetted to a saturated surface dry condition before application. As a slurry: Apply the mixed SikaTop® Seal-107 DRYSEAL either mechanically, by spray or by hand using a stiff brush. Apply the first layer in one direction. Apply the 2nd coat of SikaTop® Seal-107 DRYSEAL, by brush, in a crosswise direction to the first application as soon as the first coat has hardened. As a mortar: When SikaTop® Seal-107 DRYSEAL is applied by trowel (e.g. for a smooth surface finish), the product must be mixed with a 10% reduction of part A (~ 1A : 4.5B). Apply the 2nd coat of SikaTop® Seal-107 DRYSEAL as soon as the first coat has hardened. For pore / blowhole filling: tightly trowel into the pores / blowholes of the surface.
CURING TREATMENT
It is essential to cure SikaTop® Seal-107 DRYSEAL immediately after application for a minimum of 3 to 5 days to ensure full cement hydration and to minimise cracking. Use polythene sheeting or similar approved methods.
CLEANING OF TOOLS
Clean all tools and application equipment with clean water immediately after use. Hardened / cured material can only be removed mechanically
