Quadex^® Quad-Flow is designed to provide high strength, quick setting invert rehabilitation mortar to work in unison with the Quadex family of repair products to form an abrasion-resistant repair while increasing the structural integrity of deteriorated pipe and culvert inverts. Quad-Flow has been developed to provide a flowable repair material, capable of being pumped into a host pipe to fill voids and repair damaged inverts with a quick setting, high strength mortar, reforming and reshaping damaged or missing inverts. The quick setting characteristics   of the material allow crews to continue their work rehabilitating the host infrastructure mere hours after introduction of Quad-Flow.

Quad-Flow is supplied in 1,000 lb (454 kg) bulk bag.

One 1,000-lb. bag of Quad-Flow will yield approximately 7.42 cu. ft.

Prepare void to be filled by removing unsound concrete, dirt, dust, oil and other debris using high pressure (3,500 psi) water blasting and manual/mechanical removal.

Use approximately 13 to 14 gallons of potable water per 1,000 lb. bag of Quad-Flow. First add water to mixer, start mixer and add Quad-Flow until mortar is completely mixed.

Cure in accordance with manufacturer’s recommendations.

Flex Guard™-FM flexible fiber reinforced epoxy mastic is designed to be applied to metal and concrete substrates that experience movement. With a 100-150% elongation, it is ideal for freeze/thaw and structures that experience temperature fluctuation. Also used in the STAG Crack Injection System to cap cracks.

600×600 ml cartridge

1:1 in premeasured cartridge

Mechanical grinding is required prior to application of Flex Guard™-FM. Use 80 grit diamonds to achieve a CSP#3 profile. When used as a mastic: Hydro Blast at 5000 psi. When used as a crack sealer: Use grinder to remove any loose concrete. Smooth edges of crack. Plow crack out with a air blower. Substrate must be free of grease, standing water and other contaminants that may impede adhesion. Always check the surface for any bond inhibitors prior to application.

Remove nut and plug from the cartridge. Attach static mixing tip to cartridge. Place cartridge in dispensing gun. Pull trigger on dispensing gun and burn 2 oz into a cup. As a Mastic: Apply directly to substrate. Using a putty knife, smooth to desired finish. As a crack filler: Apply epoxy directly into crack until level with the floor. Allow to dry 2 hours before top-coating. When being used in conjunction with BGFL76: Use a putty knife spread Flex Guard-FM over the crack to cap it in epoxy leaving a 3-inch space for epoxy ports to be applied. Apply Flex Guard-FM to the outside edge of the port. No Flex Guard-FM should block the center passage of the port.

Structure Guard®-RS is a 100% solid, high-build epoxy coating formulated   to provide long-term corrosion protection and structural enhancement for manholes, pump stations, treatment plants or any wastewater infrastructure subject to high levels of corrosion and/or abrasion. Structure Guard-RS sets fast for a quick return-to-service in the most aggressive and turbulent environments. It finishes smooth to enhance flow and is utilized as an interior or exterior pipe lining. It is also ideal for invert repairs.

600ml x 300ml cartridge

Structure Guard-RS will yield theoretical coverage of 20 sq. ft per gallon @ 80 mils thickness. Actual surface coverage will depend on substrate porosity and roughness. A wet film thickness gauge may be used to determine actual coating thickness.

Re-coat Window — 2 hours
Immersion (Aqueous) Service — 1.5 hours

9 mins @ 77°F

With Structure Guard®-RS, only 1 coat is needed to attain finished thickness. If additional coats are called for they must be applied  before the previous coat has completely cross-linked, typically for 2 hours @ 72°F (higher temperatures/humidity will shorten this window). If re-coating is needed, brush blast before applying the next coat. Before re-coating, clean and dry surface thoroughly to remove all contamination, including amine blush or condensation. Small areas may be abraded by sanding or wire brushing.

The same requirements apply when overlapping seams of adjacent coating sections to create a continuous protective film. If the coating surface to be overlapped at the seam cannot be brush blasted, use a non-impact means, such as power brushing or sanding, to create adequate mechanical profile.

Coating performance is largely determined by the degree of surface preparation. MORE IS BETTER.

EXISTING CONCRETE AND MASONRY substrates must be prepared  in a manner that provides a uniform, sound, clean, neutralized surface with sufficient profile suitable for the specified coating. The substrate must be free of all contaminants, such as oil, grease, rust, scale or deposits and have a surface profile equivalent to a CSP3 to CSP5 in accordance with ICRI Technical Guideline No. 03732. This can generally be achieved by abrasive blasting, shot blasting, high pressure water cleaning, water jetting, acid etch, hot water/steam cleaning or a combination of methods.

NEW CONCRETE AND MASONRY SUBSTRATES must be sandblasted, or hydro blasted at 700psi 4gpm, to achieve a CSP4.

STEEL surfaces may require “Solvent Cleaning” (SSPC-SP 1) to remove oil, grease and other soluble contaminants. Chemical contaminants may be removed according to SSPCSP 12/NACE No. 5. Identification of the contaminants, along with their concentrations, may be obtained from laboratory and field tests as described in SSPC-TU 4 “Field Methods for Retrieval and Analysis  of  Soluble Salts on Substrates”. Surfaces to be coated should then be prepared according to SSPC-SP 5/NACE No.1 “White Blast Cleaning” for immersion service or SSPC-SP 10/NACE No. 2. “Near White Blast Cleaning” for all other service. In certain situations, an alternate procedure may be to used such as high (>5,000 psi) or ultrahigh (>10,000 psi) pressure water cleaning or water cleaning with sand injection. The resulting anchor profile shall be 2.5-5.0 mils and be relative to the coating thickness specified.

Structure Guard®-FM is a 100% solids epoxy mastic used to protect new infrastructure and to rehabilitate existing, damaged, infrastructure. Structure Guard-FM is best applied using a trowel.
