Surface preparation:
Carefully apply at least two coats of VANDEX CORROSION PROTECTION M to the prepared steel using a brush or roller, ensuring that there are no breaks in the coating. Each subsequent layer can be applied after about an hour, after the first layer has hardened sufficiently.
VANDEX CORROSION PROTECTION M can be applied at temperatures ranging from +5°C to +35°C, taking into account the temperatures of the substrate, mortar and building materials. It should be used within 45 to 60 minutes, depending on the temperature. Clean the dishes with water after use.
The rate of consumption is about 2 kg/m2 per layer. The product is packed in resealable plastic buckets weighing 5 kg.
Application:
Before application, exposed reinforcing steel must be cleaned, and any residue removed by sandblasting or other suitable methods to achieve a clean rating of SA 2.5 per DIN 55928. Any concrete surrounding the corroded steel must be removed until a solid substrate is reached. It is acceptable for the steel and concrete to be damp during application.
To prepare the mortar, use a mechanical mixer to combine 5 kg of VANDEX CORROSION PROTECTION M with 1.4 liters of water. Mix for about 3 minutes until the mixture is homogeneous and without lumps. Let the mixture stand for about 3 minutes, then mix it again briefly.
preparation:
This cement-based mortar is specially approved for use in drinking water structures, conforming to the German DVGW directive W 270. VANDEX CORROSION PROTECTION M is a refined dry mortar that is ready for use after mixing with water. It exhibits resistance to frost and de-icing salts, allows vapor dispersion and reduces CO2 penetration. When applied, it forms a hard coating.
VANDEX CORROSION PROTECTION M is a high-quality mineral-based protective mortar designed to provide corrosion protection to reinforced steel. It has been tested and approved for its intended use in accordance with the German ZTV-SIB 90 specifications. In addition to improving the corrosion protection of the rod, it also improves the adhesion to the repair mortar and the VANDEX coating that is applied afterwards.
Clean exposed reinforcing steel and remove concrete until a solid substrate is reached.
Application: apply at least two layers without breaks using a brush or roller.
Clean dishes with water after use.
Packaging: 5 kg plastic, resealable buckets.
For mixing, use a mechanical mixer to combine 5 kg of VANDEX CORROSION PROTECTION M with 1.4 liters of water.
Consumption: about 2 kg/m2 per layer.
