Application
Mixing Ratio
3.5 to 4.0 litres of water for 25 kg powder
Layer Thickness
min. 5 mm / max. 70 mm
Ambient Air Temperature
Min.5°C - Max.35°C
Substrate Temperature

Consumption
This depends on the substrate roughness and thickness of layer applied. As a guide, ~ 19 kg of powder per cm thick per m2
Yield
25 kg of powder yields approximately 15.0 litres of mortar
MIXING
Sika MonoTop®-615 HB can be mixed with a low speed (< 500 rpm) hand drill mixer or for machine application, using a force action mixer 2 to 3 bags or more at once depending the type and size of mixer.
Pour the recommended water in a suitable mixing container. While stirring slowly, add the powder to the water and mix thoroughly at least for 3 minutes adding additional water if necessary within the mixing time to the maximum specified amount and adjust to the required consistency.
APPLICATION
Bonding Primer:
Refer to the System Information above for compatible Sika products and refer to the relevant Product Data Sheet for instructions. Any bonding primer shall be applied on a pre-wet substrate and subsequent application of the repair mortar shall be applied wet on wet with the bonding primer.
Reinforcement Corrosion Protection:
Where a reinforcement coating is required the application of a repair mortar shall be applied wet on dry with the reinforcement corrosion protection. Refer to the System Information above for compatible Sika products and refer to the relevant Product Data Sheet for more detailed information about the reinforcement corrosion product.
Sika MonoTop®-615 HB can be applied either manually using traditional techniques or mechanically using wet spray equipment. Thoroughly pre-wet the prepared substrate a recommended 2 hours before application. Keep the surface wet and do not allow to dry. Before application remove excess water e.g. with a clean sponge. The surface shall appear a dark matt appearance without glistening and surface pores and pits shall not contain water.
Build up layers from bottom to top by pressing mortar well into the repair area. The surface can be finished according to the requirements using a float while wet or with a relevant rough-cast tool as soon as the mortar has started to stiffen.
CLEANING OF TOOLS
Application and mixing tools should be cleaned with water immediately after use. Hardened material must be removed mechanically.
