SikaTop® Armatec®-110 EpoCem® is part of the Sika® repair system complying with the relevant part of European Standard EN 1504 and comprising of:

μH₂O ~500

μCO₂ ~7300

+5 °C minimum; +30 °C maximum

+5 °C minimum; +30 °C maximum

~ 3 hours (at +20 °C)

Maximum waiting time before application of repair mortar
Sika repair mortars and non-fast setting concrete can be applied on SikaTop® Armatec®-110 EpoCem® within a maximum time of:

As reinforcement corrosion protection coating:
~ 2 kg per m² and application layer (~1 mm thick)
In total minimum 2 layer thickness (~2 mm thick)
 
As a bonding primer, substrate:
> 1.5 to 2.0 kg per m² /mm dependent on substrate conditions

SikaTop® Armatec®-110 EpoCem® can be mixed with a low speed (< 250 rpm) electric drill mixer.
Shake components A and B thoroughly before opening. Pour liquid components A and B into a suitable mixing vessel and mix for 30 seconds. While still mixing components A and B slowly add powder component C. Mix the three components together for a minimum 3 minutes, minimising addition of air. Leave to stand for 5–10 minutes until mixed coating material exhibits a brush-able, weakly dripping consistency.
DO NOT ADD WATER

As reinforcement corrosion protection:
Apply first layer approx. 1 mm thick, using medium hard brush or spray gun to the cleaned reinforcement. Apply 2^nd layer when the first coat is hard to the fingernail (~2–3 hours at +20 °C). Apply subsequent repair mortars wet on dry (so not to wipe off the protection layer).

As a bonding primer:
Apply using medium hard brush or spray gun to prepared substrate. To achieve good bond, SikaTop® Armatec®-110 EpoCem® must be applied well into the substrate, filling all pores (minimum layer thickness 0.5 mm). Apply subsequent repair mortars wet on wet Freshly applied SikaTop® Armatec®-110 EpoCem® must be protected against contamination and rain until application of the repair mortar.
 
Application under dynamic loading:
SikaTop® Armatec®-110 EpoCem® has been tested with the following Sika repair mortars and is certified for dynamic loading applications. Refer to separate sheets for further information.

Dry Spray Process:

 
Wet Spray Process:

Protect the fresh mortar from rain while the material has not yet set.

Clean all tools and application equipment with water immediately after use. Hardened material can only be mechanically removed.
