SikaCem-226 CI
SikaCem-226 CI is a one-component cementitious silica-fume fiber-reinforced shrinkage-compensated repair mortar with an integral corrosion inhibitor for trowel or low-pressure wet spray on vertical and overhead concrete. This 50 lb bag (part 561878) places from 3/8 in minimum to approximately 1.5 in overhead and 2 in vertical in one lift, reaches approximately 2,500 psi at 1 day and 8,000 psi at 28 days, and yields approximately 0.40 cu ft per bag. Mix with 6 to 7 pints of clean water; initial set is greater than 4 hours.
