ReCon MC5mm
High Strength, Non-Shrink Micro Concrete and
Cementitious Grout

DESCRIPTION ReCon MC5mm is a pre-mixed cement based, non-metallic, non-shrink structural micro
concrete suitable for large volue of grout or mass repair applications to concrete. It is
specially designed with polymers, cement, graded aggregates up to 5 mm to have high
strength and other additives to have good workability with low heat of hydration.

ReCon MC5mm

SURFACE PREPARATION Surfaces to be repaired should be sound, clean and free from oil, grease, dirt, paint,
mould oil, curing compounds etc. Formwork should be strong and leak proof. Drain
outlets should be installed to allow drainage of water after soaking. Air vents should also
be incorporated. Cut back edges to right angles to avoid feather edges. Corroded steel
should be fully exposed allowing a gap behind the steel to ensure removal of rust and to

or water blasted to remove rust and chlorides. Cleaned rebar should be primed with
ReCon Zinc or ReCon ST.

PRIMING Priming of concrete substrate is generally not required. Surfaces to receive ReCon MC5mm
should be well saturated with water (at least for 1-2hrs) prior to application. All excess
water must be drained off before placing ReCon MC5mm. In some critical cases appropriate
bonding agent from FitBond range should be used.

MIXING ReCon MC5mm should be mixed using either a forced action mixer or heavy duty slow speed
 GULOO  USP  ¿WWHG ZLWK D VSLUDO SDGGOH $GG SRZGHU WR ZDWHU DQG PL[ IRU 
minutes until a smooth homogenous consistency is achieved.
The amount of water to be added is 3 ltrs per 25 kg. Do not try to remix the product after
it loses its workability by the addition of extra water. Part mixing of ReCon MC5mm can be
adopted provided correct water to powder ratio is maintained. If weather conditions are
very hot, use of chilled water is recommended.

APPLICATION The mixed material should be placed or pumped continuously. Place entire mixed
material within 30 minutes of mixing. If pumping of material is adopted, ensure to
lubricate the pump lines by grouting.
Thick mortar consistency of mixed material can be achieved by reducing water to
powder ratio for use in special applications. In continuously wet areas or where
enhanced bonding is required, it is recommended to use FitBond EA as bonding agent
before placing of ReCon MC5mm.

CURING Curing is important to allow cement hydration in the micro concrete to ensure full
strength gain. To prevent water loss, wet curing by sprinkling of water, or placing of wet
hessian is recommended. Alternatively suitable curing compound from JetCure range
may be used.
