About Sika Rep Micro Crete-4 Powder (30 Kg) - 65 MPa Compressive Strength
91 000 74051 SikaRep Microcrete-4 is a factory-blended, high-performance, non-shrink, cementitious micro-concrete mix. Designed for deep structural repairs in concrete, it flows easily into restricted forms, compensates for shrinkage, develops rapid strength, and bonds well with old concrete. Ideal for repairing damaged beams, slabs, columns, tunnels, basements, and large gapes.
Key Features & Benefits
Pourable / pumpable consistency; flows easily without the need for vibration. Dual-stage expansion to compensate for plastic shrinkage and settlement.
Rapid strength gain: strong early (1-day, 3-day) strengths enabling quicker reinstatement. High ultimate strength with good impact, vibration, chemical resistance; non-corrosive, non-toxic. Contains no added chloride, so safer for reinforced concrete.
Adjustable consistency by controlling water: you can adjust flow / workability while maintaining properties.
Q1. What is the price per 30 kg bag?Typical posted rates are around 000 per 30 kg bag, depending on Please visit CIVILIZEMARTQ2. How much area / volume will 1 bag cover?Consumption is approximately 1,900 kg of powder per cubic meter of concrete (with water : powder = 0.15). So 30 kg covers ~0.0158 m ~ about 15-16 liters volume roughly. Exact depends on depth / thickness. Q3. Can it be pumped?Yes the product is designed to be pourable/pumpable into restricted formwork without vibration. Q4. Is it safe for reinforced concrete / steel?Yes it is non-corrosive, contains no added chloride. Q5. What is shelf life & storage?Shelf life is ~6 months from date of production if stored in unopened bags, in dry conditions, at temperature between +5-35 C. Q6. Can the mix be adjusted for more flow?Yes by using water-powder ratio within the recommended range (0.14 to 0.16) for higher flow, but avoid adding more water than specified as that can degrade strengths & increase shrinkage.
High Strength and PerformanceEngineered for structural repairs, Sika Rep Micro Crete-4 delivers a compressive strength of 65 MPa after 28 days. This ensures robust restoration for critical elements such as columns, beams, and slabs in residential, commercial, and industrial settings. Non-shrink characteristics prevent cracking, prolonging the repaired structure's lifespan.
Flowable and Easy ApplicationWith its highly flowable and non-segregating consistency, Sika Rep Micro Crete-4 is simple to pour into formwork, covering intricate spaces without bleeding or separation. Its optimized particle size enables seamless placement and compaction, even in congested or hard-to-reach areas.
Quality Compliance and SafetyThe product adheres to ASTM C1107 and IS 516 Part 1 standards, ensuring top-notch performance and reliability. It is odorless, non-poisonous, and industrial construction grade, making it safe and easy to handle in all typical jobsite conditions.
FAQ's of Sika Rep Micro Crete-4 Powder (30 Kg) - 65 MPa Compressive Strength:
Q: How should Sika Rep Micro Crete-4 Powder be applied?
A: To apply Sika Rep Micro Crete-4, mix the powder thoroughly with water as per the instructions until a homogenous, flowable mortar is achieved. Pour the mixture into prepared and cleaned formwork for structural repairs. It is suitable for columns, beams, floors, slabs, and walls.
Q: What are the curing requirements after using this repair mortar?
