Rockbond Sprayed Mortar and Concrete (RB SM and RB SC) powders are pre-mixed, ready to use, cementitious powders made to Department of Transport Specification BD 27/86 for quick and rapid repairs to concrete structures.
Description
ROCKBOND SPRAYED MORTAR (RB SM) powder is a pre-mixed, ready to use, cementitious mortar powder. The compound contains an unique blend of fine cement powders, graded sands, alkali resistant fibres, acrylic polymer powders, chloride free accelerators and admixtures. The powder, when sprayed with water, produces a non slump, non shrink mortar which quickly hardens to provide a material that is strong, dense and impermeable. ROCKBOND SPRAYED CONCRETE (RB SC) contains a crushed rock aggregate and is applied to sections greater than 60mm. The powders are packaged in 25kg moisture proof, durable bags and have a shelf life of 2 years.
