Sika SikaFix HH Hydrophilic is a nonflammable hydrophilic polyurethane resin designed to form a flexible gasket or plug joints and cracks in concrete from water infiltration. When it comes in contact with water, the grout expands quickly and cures to a tough, flexible, adhesive, closed cell foam.
SikaFix HH Hydrophilic is a low-viscosity, expanding polyurethane grout designed for sealing leaks in concrete cracks and joints. When it comes into contact with water, it rapidly expands and cures into a flexible, high-strength, adhesive closed-cell foam that effectively stops water infiltration. The product forms a tight, durable seal that remains unaffected by mildly corrosive environments. It is nonflammable, solvent-free, and ideal for applications requiring flexible waterproofing in dynamic concrete structures.

How does SikaFix HH Hydrophilic work?
When in contact with water, the polyurethane resin rapidly expands, forming a closed-cell foam that creates a flexible and durable waterproof seal.
Is this product suitable for below-grade applications?
Yes, SikaFix HH Hydrophilic is widely used for below-grade waterproofing and sealing joints in foundations, tunnels, and infrastructure.
Can it be applied in wet environments?
Yes, this grout is designed for active water infiltration and works effectively even in wet or damp conditions.
What is the expansion ratio of SikaFix HH Hydrophilic?
It expands up to six times its original liquid volume, ensuring a secure seal in cracks and joints.
What is the best storage practice for this product?
Store in a dry area between 40–90°F (4–32°C) in original, sealed containers. Before use, precondition the product to 60–90°F (16–32°C) for optimal performance.
