Concrete and Masonry Repair Mortar |
|
OCTOCRETE is a single component, ready
to use with water, high strength polymer modified cementitious patching
mortar for horizontal, vertical and overhead repair of
concrete and masonry. |
|
Advantages of Octacrete |
 | Superior physical properties to
conventional Portland cement mortars |
 | Excellent adhesion * |
 | Traffic bearing in 4 hours |
 | Coefficient of expansion similar to
concrete |
 | Excellent resistance to de-icing
chemicals |
 | Excellent workability results in labor
savings |

vertical and overhead repairs |
 | Repaired areas will breathe |
 | Tradesman use conventional practices
|
 | Excellent freeze-thaw resistance
|
 | Two set times available for convenience
