Sika MonoTop®-615 SD

High build polymer modified cementitious patch repair mortar

Sika MonoTop®-615 SD is a one-part, thixotropic, high build, polymer modified, cementitious mortar containing silica fume. Sika MonoTop®-615 SD cures to produce a medium strength mortar with enhanced polymeric properties. Sika MonoTop®-615 SD exhibits high bond strength, greatly reduced water and carbon dioxide permeability and improved resistance to oils and chemicals.

Application steps

MIXING

Sika MonoTop®-615 SD should be mechanically mixed in a clean drum using a drill and paddle. A normal tilting drum concrete mixer is not suitable. Place clean water into a clean drum and add Sika MonoTop®-615 SD slowly while mixing. A minimum mixing time of 3 minutes is recommended to thoroughly blend the components with a maximum speed of 500 rpm to minimise air entrainment.

 

APPLICATION

Work the mixed mortar (wet-on-wet) well into the substrate using a placing rather than a rendering technique to fill all pores and voids. Compact well. Force material against the edge of the repair area, working towards the centre. For repairs in excess of 60 mm deep, apply in layers and form keys for subsequent layers. If previous layers are over 48 hours old, needle gun the surface and dampen before applying the next layer. Trowel the final coat to a smooth finish, if required. Sika MonoTop®-615 SD and the surrounding areas can be further treated with SikaTop® Seal-107 or Sika MonoTop®-620 MY to provide a water and carbonation resistant finish.

CURING TREATMENT

To achieve the full potential of any cement based product, curing is essential. This can be carried out with the application of a curing compound such as Antisol®-E or with other curing practices such as covering with polythene sheets or damp hessian for 3 days.

CLEANING OF TOOLS

Clean all tools and application equipment with water immediately after use. Hardened or cured material can only be mechanically removed.
