Product specifications
The stated values represent typical product characteristics and are not to be construed as binding product specifications.
Field of application
- Porous, mineral building materials such as clay brick, sandstone and sand-lime brick
- Subsequent horizontal waterproofing of masonry under low pressure up to a degree of moisture penetration of 95%
Properties
- New inverse formulation for faster action
- Silane/siloxane-based
- Excellent penetration
- Optimised for injection under gravity
- High yielding
- Water repellent
-
Preparation
-
Substrate requirements
Drilling channel must be free of drill dust.
-
Preparations
Creating drill holes:
Single row, diameter 12 mm, spacing 12 cm, horizontal plane, hole depth up to approx. 2 cm from end of wall.For walls of thickness > 0.6 m, drill on both sides if necessary.
-
-
Application
-
Inject material using suitable injection apparatus depending on the packaging type.
Do not fill the last 2 cm of the drill holes with cream.
-
Application instructions
-
Take appropriate measures to protect adjacent building elements and materials that should not come into contact with the product.
Close drill holes on the same day using WP DS Level (Art. 0426).
Temporary discolouration of the surface may occur in the areas in which the material propagates, in particular on fair-faced masonry.
For the subsequent surface sealing, it is recommended to apply an additional coat of WP DS Level (Art. 0426) in the region of the row of drill holes.
Then, apply surface waterproofing to at least 30 cm above and below the row of drill holes. Include adjacent components if necessary.
We recommend setting up trial areas.
