MasterCrete CI 5488

​​​​​Structural Repair Mortar with Active Corrosion Inhibition Which Provides High Bond to Steel and Concrete (formerly MasterEmaco S 488CI)

How Does MasterCrete CI 5488 Work?

MasterCrete CI 5488 is a ready-to-use, high strength repair mortar containing active corrosion inhibition. Mixed with water, it provides a rheoplastic, non-segregating, thixotropic mortar with high bond to steel and concrete. MasterCrete CI 5488 is synthetic fibre reinforced. It does not contain metallic aggregate and is free of chlorides.

MasterCrete CI 5488 is recommended for repairs needing mortar layers up to 40mm in thickness:

• Maintenance works at ports or sea-areas

• Maintenance works at mechanical industries, especially in conditions where mineral oils, lubricants, etc. are present

• Protection of concrete against aggressive waters containing sulphates, sulphides, chlorides, etc

• Repair of damaged concrete members

• Repair of concrete members subjected to repetitive stresses

• Repair of structural members (reinforced or pre-stressed beams under normal or eccentric stress)

• Vertical, overhead and horizontal applications

What Are the Unique Features of MasterCrete CI 5488?

MasterCrete CI 5488 is a ready-to-use powder that merely has to be mixed with water to yield an easily workable, shrinkage compensating repair mortar. It is resistant to aggressive environmental elements such as seawater, carbon dioxide, air pollution etc.
