FX-XXX Jet Set Gel is used to seal leaks in cracked concrete, for soil stabilization and repairing leaking joints in structures. This all purpose grout is easily mixed with water or stabilizer at a convenient 1 to 1 by volume mix ratio.

ADVANTAGES:

  • 1 to 1 Ratio mixed with water
  • Rapid gelling
  • Non Flammable
  • Water like consistency
  • Deep Penetration into cracks or soil
  • Flexible, High tensile elongation
  • Will not dry out if not in contact with water.
  • Remains flexible in water, dry joints or soil
  • Excellent bond to soil, concrete, rock or other porous materials

WHERE TO USE:

  • Sealing cracks in concrete or honey combed concrete, injected in soil as a soil stabilizer
  • Joint repair for pipes in water or sewerage.
  • Elevator pits, to stop soil erosion due to flowing water or seepage
  • Manholes to prevent water infiltration. FX-XXX Jet Set can be pumped from the outside of the manhole or by drilling holes and pumping from inside the manhole.

MIX RATIO:

Mix one part by volume FX-XXX Jet Set Gel to one part by volume water for a strong gel and minimal expansion. The water used to react the product should be in the pH range of 7 to 9; water outside of this pH range may affect the final properties of the system.

STORAGE AND HANDLING:

FX-XXX Jet Set Gel should be stored in temperatures of 50 to 80°F. For long term storage, store at 40-50°F under dry conditions. Once a pail has been opened, the effectiveness of the FX-XXX Gel may be reduced.

Clean FX-XXX Jet Set from application equipment as quickly as possible to prevent the material from forming a gel. Immediately after use, hoses and pumps can be cleaned with acetone or acetone free cleaner. Avoid conditions which could cause ignition: e.g., heat, sparks, open flames, etc. FX-XXX Jet Set Gel can be pumped using hand or air operated piston pumps. A nitrogen blanket moisture barrier is added to the pail of FX-XXX to retard premature catalyses of resin in the pail due to humidity.

SHELF LIFE:

Six (6) months

CAUTION:

FX-XXX Jet Set contains T D I (Toluene Diisocyanate) and petroleum distillate. Use in well ventilated areas. Avoid breathing vapors. Avoid eye contact and repeated skin contact. Gloves and goggles are recommended. A self-contained breathing apparatus should be worn in confined spaces where T D I and solvent vapors are likely to be high. Monitoring may be performed by using a simple badge monitor. The T D I monitors are available from G.M.D. Systems, Inc. Consult MSDS for further safety information.
