Thioflex 600 Price in Bangladesh

Description

Description:
Thioflex 600 is available in gun and pouring grades. The gun grade is ideal for general application. It is packed in a ready to mix, 2.5 litre tin containing the base and curing agent in the correct proportions. The pouring grade for joints in horizontal surfaces is supplied in 5 litre packs with the base and curing agent in separate tins. Thioflex 600 is particularly recommended for use in high-rise buildings and other applications where access for subsequent maintenance will be difficult and the risk of early movement failure must be minimised. It is also suitable for sealing joints in brickwork, retaining walls, basements and subways. Thioflex 600 pouring grade is recommended for initial sealing of expansion joints and stress relief joints in floors and sealing other horizontal surfaces.

Uses:
Sealing movement joints in building and civil engineering structures, including superstructures, floors, basements and
subways.

Advantages:

• Meets key international standards
• Forms a tough, elastic, rubber-like seal
• Accommodates continuous and pronounced cyclic movement
•  Excellent adhesion to most common substrates, including
  primed concrete, glass, aluminium and stainless steel
• High resistance to ageing reduces physical damage due
  to climatic extremes

Design criteria:
Thioflex 600 may be applied to joints between 5 and 50 mm wide. Joints which are expected to experience cyclic
movements should be designed to an optimum width: depth ratio of 2:1, subject to the overriding recommended minimum
sealant depths set out below: 5 mm for metals, glass and other non-porous surfaces. 10 mm for all porous surfaces; 20 mm for trafficked joints and those subject to hydrostatic pressures. To ensure that the sealant remains within its stated movement capacity (25% MAF), sealing slot widths should be designed in accordance with the recommendations of BS 6093. The use of a surface primer is always required on porous surfaces. On non-porous surfaces a primer is not normally
required except where glass or glazed surfaces are to be permanently immersed in water.

Standards compliance
British Standard BS 4254 :1983. U.S. Federal Specification TT-S-00227E November 1969 (amended 1970). DTp specification for Highway Works December 1991 series 1000 clause 1017. ASTM C920-87: Type M, Grade NS, Class 25.

Application instructions
Joint preparation
The joint surfaces must be thoroughly dry, clean and frost free. Remove all dust and laitance by rigorous wire brushing, grinding or grit blasting. Remove all rust, scale and protective lacquers from metal surfaces. Remove any oil or grease with
Fosroc Equipment Cleaner.

Any expansion joint filler must be checked to ensure it is tightly packed and no gaps or voids exist at the base of the sealing slot before positioning a bond breaker.

Note: The use of a bond breaker is not required in expansion joints containing Hydrocele XL or Expand foam cellular
polyethylene expansion joint fillers. For construction or contraction joints a bond breaker tape or back-up strip should
be used. Where hydrostatic pressure exists, only bond breaking tapes must be used, not foamed back-up strips.
Where a particularly neat finish is required, mask the face edges of the joint before priming and remove immediately
after tooling is completed.

Priming
When Fosroc Primers 4 or 7 are required, these should be used as follows:

Fosroc Primer 4: For use on glass and ceramics which are to be permanently immersed in water. It is a one part chemically active clear liquid for brush or pad application. One thin coat should be applied and allowed to dry for 2 to 5 minutes prior to sealant application.

Fosroc Primer 7: It is a one part chemically active clear liquid for brush application to concrete, stone, brickwork, timber
and unglazed edges of ceramic tiles. One thin coat should be applied using a clean, dry brush, ensuring complete coverage. Avoid over priming resulting in an excess of primer in the base of the joint or application beyond faces. The mixed Thioflex 600 must be applied when the primer is tack free, that is after the evaporation of the solvent but before the primer film has completely reacted. After 3 hours the surfaces must be reprimed before applying the sealant. Iron and steel must be protected with an anti-corrosion primer prior to sealing.

Mixing
Gun grade: The base component and curing agent are supplied ready for mixing in a single tin. Mix thoroughly using a slow speed drill (300 to 500 rpm) fitted with a Fosroc Sealant Mixing Paddle for 5 minutes. Only thorough mixing, including material right at the bottom of the tin, will result in proper curing. In cold weather Thioflex 600 mixes more easily if stored overnight at room temperature. Immediately after mixing, load the sealant into a Fosroc ‘G’ Gun using the Follower Plate, and apply to the joint.

Pouring grade: Thioflex 600 pouring grade is supplied in two separate containers, the base in the larger tin and the curing
agent in a sachet. The sachet contents should be transferred to the tin and mixed as per the gun grade instructions. The
pouring grade may be poured directly into horizontal joints or for application to horizontal joints less than 15 mm wide
loaded into a Fosroc ‘G’ Gun.

Finishing
Thioflex 600 should be tooled to a smooth finish. A minimum of surface lubricant such as dilute detergent solution may
be used to assist the process. Any masking tape should be removed immediately after tooling.

Cleaning
Clean equipment immediately after use with Fosroc Equipment Cleaner

Packaging
Thioflex 600 gun grade is supplied in 2.5 litre tins in cartons of four.

Thioflex 600 pouring grade is supplied in a 5 litre tin, curing agent included in a sachet inside the tin
