It is specially designed for repairing <br />horizontal cracks and horizontal control joints in concrete. <br />Typical Applications: <br />• Warehouses, loading docks, manufacturing, and industrial facilities <br />• Food processing, walk in freezers, and cold storage units <br />• Walkways and decks at airports, parking garages and wastewater <br />treatment facilities <br />Advantages: <br />• Quick curing formula <br />• Excellent flexibility <br />• Can be applied in cold temperatures <br />• Zero VOC’s <br />Complies With: <br />• California AQMD requirement <br />• Meets USDA requirements for incidental contact, including wet food <br />areas <br />Preparation: <br />• All areas of concrete to be treated must be free from loose sand, dirt, <br />dust, oil, grease, sealers, paint, existing coatings, and other foreign <br />substances that could interfere with adhesion. <br />• Concrete must be at least 28 days old, and must have reached a <br />minimum 3,000 psi (20 MPa) compressive strength. <br />• Joints must be cut according to ACI recommendations. <br />• Crack and joint edges must be at a straight 90° angle to the horizontal <br />plane of the concrete slab. Chase all cracks to a depth of at least 2” <br />(5.08 cm). <br />• When repairing T-joints, cut joint to a depth of at least 25% of the total <br />depth of the slab. The side of the T-joint must be cut 12” (20.4 cm) from <br />the joint and a minimum of 2” (5.08 cm) deep. <br />• Flush cracks and joints clean using an appropriate cleaning solution and <br />rinse well. Use clean, oil free, compressed air to blow out any remaining <br />dust, water, or debris prior to installation. <br />• For best results and for optimum caulk performance, it is recommended <br />to prime the inside areas of all cracks and joints with PRO-Tekt SP <br />Check our website for the latest version of the Technical Datasheet. <br />www.aquafin.net</p> <p>Physical and Technical Data <br />Mixing Ratio</p> <p>1 Part-A:1 Part-B</p> <p>Gel Time, (ASTM C881) <br />@ 75°F (24°C)</p> <p>35 ± 5 seconds</p> <p>Cure Time at 75°F (24°C), <br />Light Pedestrian Traffic <br />Light Vehicle Traffic</p> <p>minimum 90 min <br />mimimum 24 hrs</p> <p>Viscosity at 75°F (24°C), <br />Side A <br />Side B</p> <p>1100 ± 200 cps <br />1200 ± 200 cps</p> <p>Specific Gravity, <br />Side A <br />Side B</p> <p>1.12 ± 0.1 <br />1.07 ± 0.1</p> <p>Hardness, Shore A <br />(ASTM D2240)</p> <p>80 ± 5</p> <p>Tear Strength, <br />(ASTM D624)</p> <p>275 ± 50 pli <br />48.2 ± 8.8 kNm</p> <p>Tensile Strength, <br />(ASTM D412)</p> <p>1500 ± 200 psi <br />10.3 ± 1.4 MPa</p> <p>Elongation, <br />(ASTM D412)</p> <p>300 ± 50%</p> <p>Total Solids by Weight, <br />(ASTM D2669)</p> <p>95 ± 2%</p> <p>Total Solids by Volume, <br />(ASTM D2697)</p> <p>95 ± 2%</p> <p>Color</p> <p>Clear</p> <p>VOC Content</p> <p>0 g/L</p> <p>All data are averages of several tests under laboratory conditions.

Refer to <br />the current PRO-Tekt SP (Sealant Primer) Technical Data Sheet for all <br />application instructions, including surface preparation, etc. Pay close <br />attention to recoat times. <br />• All surfaces whether primed or unprimed must be completely dry and <br />clean prior to application of PRO-Tekt Caulk. <br />• Substrate and ambient temperatures must be between 20°F to 135°F <br />(-6.6°C to 57°C). <br />Mixing: <br />Condition all components 75°F to 80°F (24°C to 27°C) prior to mixing <br />and application. Carefully mix component B individually at a slow speed <br />(300 – 500 rpm) until a homogeneous mixture is achieved. Do not mix in <br />an up and down motion. Component A does not require individual mixing. <br />Page 1 of 2</p> <p>(updated 9/28/22-EKAC)</p> <p>PRO-Tekt Caulk <br />Installation: <br />Read all instructions thoroughly prior to installation. <br />• Equipment and Tools required: <br />• Portable joint filler pump and dispensing system for 1:1 ratio <br />polyurea caulk applications such as Graco Reactor E-10. <br />• Ample supply of disposable static mixing tubes. <br />• Application: <br />Follow all written instructions from the pump manufacturer and adhere <br />to safe work practices. Fill one pump tank with component A and the <br />other pump tank with component B. Set pump to dispense at a 1 part <br />component A to 1 part component B volume ratio (1A:1B). <br />• Control Joints: If a backer rod is used, depth should not be <br />more than 25% of the total slab thickness. Apply PRO-Tekt <br />Caulk over the backer rod. The use of a backer rod is <br />optional. If no backer rod is used, fill all control joints to full <br />depth thickness with PRO-Tekt Caulk. <br />• Construction Joints: Do not use backer rod or sand. Fill all <br />construction joints to full depth thickness with PRO-Tekt Caulk. <br />• Cracks: Fill all cracks flush with PRO-Tekt Caulk. <br />Tool and finish joints and cracks according to project drawings and <br />specifications. Excess caulk can be shaved off top of joints and cracks after <br />approx. 90 minutes [based on 75°F (24°C)]. <br />Clean-up: <br />TOOLS & EQUIPMENT: Remove fresh/uncured material with an <br />approved solvent. Cured material can only be removed mechanically. <br />MATERIAL: Dispose of in accordance with local, state and federal <br />disposal regulations. <br />Limitations: <br />• Do not dilute or thin product. <br />• The physical properties of PRO-Tekt Caulk are UV stable. However, <br />discoloration will occur in direct sunlight. <br />• Do not use PRO-Tekt Caulk in submerged applications. Ensure that there <br />is proper drainage in all areas where PRO-Tekt Caulk is used. <br />• Contact Aquafin Technical Department for use in areas not listed. <br />• Curing time will vary, depending on surface temperatures, air <br />temperatures, and humidity. Cold temperatures and low humidity will <br />extend the curing time. High temperatures and high humidity will shorten <br />the curing time. <br />• Consult Aquafin Technical Department when mixing or placing outside <br />of the temperature recommendations listed.</p> <p>Note: <br />Proper application is the responsibility of the user.
