Product information sheet: Lightweight 1200 and Lightweight 1800 Grouts
Description
ROCKBOND LIGHTWEIGHT (1200) GROUT (LW1200G) powder is a premixed, low density, cementitious grout powder. The compound consists of a blend of cement powders, shrinkage compensating agents, graded lightweight sand and aggregates and a combination of compatible admixtures. The powder, when mixed with water, produces a lightweight, free flowing grout, which is easily mixed, pumped and placed. The grout is specially designed to be low in weight, and to penetrate and fill small and large volume voids that require a low density material. ROCKBOND LIGHTWEIGHT (1800) GROUT (LW1800G) has a set density of 1800kg/m. The powders are ready to use, packaged in 25kg moisture proof, durable bags and have a shelf life of 2 years.
