About Conbextra GP2
Conbextra GP2
Conbextra GP2(T) is used for precision grouting where it is essential to withstand static and dynamic loads. Typical applications would be the grouting of base plates of turbines, compressors, boiler feed pumps etc., It can also be used for anchoring a wide range of fixings. These include masts, anchor bolts and fence posts.
Precision Grouting for Critical ApplicationsConbextra GP2 is engineered for the precise grouting of machinery, base plates, columns, and anchoring wherever high performance and reliability are essential. Its ease of use and high early strength make it suitable for both new construction and maintenance projects in industrial environments.
Superior Strength and DurabilityExhibiting a compressive strength of approximately 50 N/mm at 28 days and tensile strength of 3.54 N/mm, Conbextra GP2 provides structural stability and long-term durability. Its controlled positive expansion ensures complete contact and load transfer, reducing maintenance demands.
User-Friendly Application and MixingJust add water and mix to obtain a free-flowing, pourable grout that is easy to place even in congested areas. The grout remains workable for over 4 hours at 30C, supporting efficient installation in a range of field conditions.
FAQs of Conbextra GP2:
Q: How should Conbextra GP2 be mixed and applied for optimal results?
A: To achieve the best performance, gradually add approximately 4.25 litres of clean water to a 25 kg bag while mixing, adjusting slightly for desired flow. Mix for at least 5 minutes to ensure uniform consistency. Pour or pump the grout into place immediately after mixing, filling all gaps beneath the structure to be grouted.
Q: What are the primary uses of Conbextra GP2?
A: Conbextra GP2 is ideal for precision grouting of machinery and structural base plates, equipment foundations, anchoring bolts, and gap filling where high strength, low shrinkage, and resistance to mild chemicals are required.
Q: When can structures grouted with Conbextra GP2 be returned to service?
A: Typically, Conbextra GP2 achieves substantial early strength, but for full load-bearing applications, allow at least 28 days of curing to ensure the compressive strength reaches approximately 50 N/mm. Light loads may be applied earlier depending on ambient conditions and project requirements.
Q: Where is Conbextra GP2 particularly beneficial to use?
A: This grout is especially useful in industrial, plant, and engineering settings requiring quick and effective grouting, such as beneath heavy machinery, cranes, columns, or anywhere precise alignment and structural integrity are needed.
Q: What are the advantages of using Conbextra GP2 compared to traditional grouts?
A: Conbextra GP2 is a free-flowing, non-shrink, and chloride-free grout that delivers high early and ultimate strength, controlled expansion, chemical resistance, and easy application, ensuring reliable support and longevity for critical installations.
Q: How should Conbextra GP2 be stored to maximize shelf life?
A: Keep Conbextra GP2 in its original, unopened packaging stored in a cool, dry location away from direct sun. When stored as directed, it has a shelf life of up to 6 months.
