{"product_id":"watco-flexible-joint-repair","title":"Watco Flexible Joint Repair","description":"\u003cp\u003eWatco Flexible Joint Repair is a flexible polyurea mortar for damaged expansion joints in concrete floors. It fills the joint and adjoining broken concrete edges in one operation, helping restore a usable surface where repeated traffic has worn the joint shoulders away.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe grey satin repair combines flexibility with a tough surface for busy floor areas carrying forklifts and trolleys. It is trowelled into the prepared joint and can be used indoors or outside. Choose the repair width and depth carefully so the material fills the damaged profile within the limits in the technical sheet.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSurface Preparation\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eRake loose material out of the joint. Remove oil, grease and contamination and leave the sides clean and dry. Mask the surrounding floor if neat edges are required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDeeper voids can be packed with suitable back-up rod or equivalent packing material. Aim to leave approximately 25mm for the repair. Where filling a joint and adjacent edge damage together, keep the overall repair width to a maximum of 100mm and retain at least 5mm depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Data\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePack size is 2.5L, comprising resin, curing agent and aggregate.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComposition is a flexible polyurea mortar. Finish is grey satin.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApplication temperature range is 10–30°C.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorking life is approximately one hour at 20°C.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAt 20°C, allow eight hours for foot traffic and 24 hours for forklifts.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGuide coverage is 12.5m at 20mm wide × 10mm deep, 2m at 50mm × 25mm, or 1m at 100mm × 25mm.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStore between 10°C and 30°C.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDirections for Use\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eCombine the smaller tin with the larger tin and mix thoroughly with a wide-bladed tool. Scrape the sides and base so the liquid components are fully incorporated. Transfer the mixed liquid into the outer bucket and gradually add the aggregate while continuing to mix.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUse the mixed mortar immediately. Trowel firmly into the joint and shape the surface level with the surrounding floor. Wiping the blade with a cloth dampened with white spirit helps the finishing process. If masking tape is used, Watco advises leaving it for about an hour before removal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eLimitations\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe minimum repair depth is 5mm. Using back-up material to control a deep joint helps make material consumption more predictable. Use the published joint dimensions when estimating yield and include the full width of damaged edges.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLower temperatures extend the curing time. Keep forklift traffic off for the stated 24-hour period at 20°C and allow longer in colder conditions. Remove food products during application and curing, and follow the component safety sheets when handling and mixing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eProduct FAQs\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan it repair the broken edges as well as the joint?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes.
