Product Description: TR is a single component, water activated, rapid setting slope grade (up to 60%) structural repair mortar with a gel like consistency suitable for troweling on horizontal and/or sloped grades and for aggregate extension. TR has 15 to 20 minutes of working time and reaches >2500 psi compressive strengths within 3 hours of final set. TR can be applied in ambient temperature ranges from 40° to 120° Fahrenheit and can be re-tempered repeatedly to a gel state prior to final set without additional water, providing ease of use and reduced material waste.

Typical Applications: Designed specifically for use in horizontal and/or sloped applications, TR is an ideal repair material for roads and bridges, airport runways, warehouse or manufacturing facility floors, loading dock ramps, parking garages, post-tension cable repairs, form and pour projects, overlayment of concrete surfaces, joint repair, pavements etc. Can be used as a temporary repair for asphalt. Surface Preparation: • Concrete surfaces must be structurally sound, free of any loose or deteriorated concrete, dirt, dust, grease, oil, sealers, curing compounds and all other bond-inhibiting materials. • Mechanically prepare surfaces to achieve a surface profile equal to CSP 5-7 as per ICRI Guideline No. 310.2R-13 • Properly clean profiled area by water-blasting. All surfaces must be saturated surface dry (SSD) but with no standing water, immediately prior to application. • Repair areas must have saw cut straight edges with a minimum 3/8” (10 mm) depth as per ICRI Guideline 310.1R – 2008. Mixing: Critical Mix Temperature (CMT): TR undergoes an exothermic chemical reaction during blending Heat, the by-product of the reaction, is the indication that the reaction is complete and that the product is ready to be poured. TR has a CMT of 90˚F/32˚C which MUST BE REACHED before placing to ensure performance. Mixing time to reach the CMT will vary with ambient air and mix water temperatures. Contact Aquafin Technical Department with questions 90 regarding CMT and cold or hot weather placements. The use of an infrared thermometer is required for the mixing process to ensure that the CMT has been achieved.

For & As
Pavemend TR™ Standard NEAT Procedures (Bucket Mixing with Drill & Paddle) • To ensure product performance, do not divide/separate individual units into smaller portions. Mix entire contents at one time. • Do not hand mix. A drill (6 amp minimum) with a mixer blade turning at least 500 to 800 rpm is required. Drills with speeds greater than 800 rpms may entrain air in the mix. • Ideal water temperature is between 65°F/18°C and 75°F/24°C. If ambient temperatures are above 85˚F/29˚C, use cold water at approximately 55˚F/13˚C. 1. To begin: Tumble bucket on ground to loosen materials, then dry mix powders in the bucket for approx. 30 seconds with drill and paddle. 2. Pour all required water into bucket, on top of TR powder. It is very important to rapidly incorporate all of the dry TR powders into water to achieve a uniform wet mixture within the first 30 seconds of mixing.: For Each: Add: 47 lb (21.3 kg) unit 12 lb (5.4 kg) unit
1 U.S. gallon (3.8 L) water 1 U.S. quarts (.95 L) water
3. Mix material until CMT of 90˚F/32˚C is reached. Place material into repair area and spread with a trowel, straight edge or squeegee, filling voids and edges. For Aggregate Extension: (Bucket Mixing with Drill & Paddle) • Use only 3/8” (1 cm) or 1/2” (1.3cm) #7 clean washed fractured stone up to 50% maximum by weight. • Add aggregate to mixed material after mixing for 30 seconds. • See mixing instruction for NEAT application above. Application: • Minimum product thickness (neat) is 1/4” (6 mm), and (extended) is 1” (25 mm). There are no restrictions to the depth of product thickness. • For best results, Aquafin recommends monolithic placement of repair materials. Maintain a minimum thickness of 1.0” if repair material must be layered. • Place onto properly prepared concrete substrate and spread with a trowel, come-a-long, or screed to a thickness that matches surrounding concrete. • Upon initial set, finish material to desired finish texture. • Upon final set, the material can be saw-cut, drilled, sanded and/or polished. DO NOT use additional water during the finishing process. • All previously existing joints must be re-established within 1-3 hours of final set. • General loading in 2 to 3.5 hour for wheeled traffic and 60 minutes for foot traffic. For applications 0.5” thick and greater, in ambient and/ or surface temperatures below 50°F/10°C, extend the loading time by 30 minutes for each 10° below 50°F/10°C. For applications 1” thick and greater, in ambient and/or surface temperatures below 40°F/4°C extend the loading time by 30 minutes for each 10° below 40°F/4°C. • Self-curing. • Clean all tools and equipment with water prior to the material reaching final set. Cured material must be mechanically removed.
