< Back to Technical Information Main Menu


PRODUCT DESCRIPTION, ADVANTAGES and TEST DATA
Item FC-V(K):    Fusion-Crete 5-Minute Concrete Kit (Contains one 5-gallon pail of Component "A" Liquid Activator and one 5-gallon pail of Component "B" Dry Cement Compound. Minimum net weight: 100 Lbs.)
Item FC-V(A):    Fusion-Crete 5-Minute Concrete Component "A" Liquid Activator (Minimum net weight: 50 Lbs.)
Item FC-V(B):    Fusion-Crete 5-Minute Concrete Component "B" Dry Cement Compound (Minimum net weight: 50 Lbs.)
 

Product Description                                                                                                              

Fusion-Crete 5-Minute Concrete is a magnesium/phosphate concrete with exceptional high, early set-up time and compressive strength that will also set up in contact with, or submerged in, water. This concrete is especially useful for making concrete and asphalt repairs in peak-traffic areas ---- in dry or wet weather ---- allowing pedestrian and/or vehicular traffic to be resumed within 5 to 10 minutes following the completion of the repair work. The working and set-up times may be increased by using a greater amount of the Liquid Activator (Component "A") with the Dry Cement Compound (Component "B").
 

 

Advantages                                                                                                                              

1 Minimal surface preparation is required
2 Dramatically reduces traffic delays
3 The only additional ingredient(s) required are sand and/or gravel, depending upon the type of repair.
4 May be mixed by hand or with power mixer
5 No cutting is required; material may be feathered into broken, jagged edges and also feathered out to zero.
6 Color pigment may be added.
7 There will be virtually no shrinkage.
8 Superior resistance to freeze/thaw, salts, chemicals, snow, ice, and abrasion.
9 High compressive strength: up to 4,500 psi in 2 Hrs., 6,000 psi in 7 days and 9,000 psi in 28 days.
10 Tremendous labor savings.
11 Non-toxic and non-hazardous product.
12 Successful history of use of this type of product for more than 25 years.
