Penatech GP Grout is a high-performance, precision Class C cementitious grout formulated for demanding structural applications. Designed with dual-phase expansion, it ensures zero shrinkage in both plastic and hardened states. This non-metallic, chloride-free grout provides superior flow and retention, making it ideal for use under base plates, crane rails, anchor bolts, and precast panels. With excellent impact and thermal resistance, Penatech GP Grout is trusted for both dry pack and flowable installations across commercial and industrial sites.
Q: How should Penatech GP Grout be applied under base plates?
A: For base plates, use a gravity-fed header box system. Ensure the formwork is watertight, maintain a consistent grout head, and pour from one side only to avoid air entrapment.
Q: How does Penatech GP Grout perform under high loads and vibration?
A: It offers high early and ultimate compressive strength with excellent durability, making it suitable for dynamic loads and vibration-prone applications like crane rails and machinery bases.
Q: Is Penatech GP Grout compatible with pre-cast concrete and steel substrates?
A: Yes, it bonds effectively with clean, saturated-surface-dry concrete and properly prepared steel. It’s commonly used in precast concrete and anchor bolt applications.
Q: What should I do if the grout begins to stiffen during application?
A: Do not add water to re-temper. Discard any grout that has stiffened. Always mix fresh batches and maintain continuous application to avoid cold joints.
Q: What safety measures are necessary during use?
A: Wear gloves, safety goggles, and protective clothing. Ensure adequate ventilation and avoid direct skin contact. Refer to the MSDS for full safety information.
