SikaGrout® GP AU is a pumpable, shrinkage-compensated, flowable cementitious “Class A” grout with extended working time to suit local ambient temperatures.
USES
SikaGrout® GP AU is a general purpose grout suitable for the following applications:
For precision grouting, SikaGrout®-212HP is recommended.
CHARACTERISTICS AND ADVANTAGES
▪ Easy to mix and apply
▪ Flowable consistency (according to mix)
▪ Rapid strength development
▪ Non-corrosive
▪ Non-toxic
▪ Iron and chloride free
▪ Shrinkage-compensated
▪ Good pumping properties

Place about 70–80 % of the premeasured clean water (depending on consistency required – refer to “Mix Ratio”) into a clean container and gradually add the whole bag of SikaGrout® GP AU into it while continuously mixing. Add the remaining water until the desired consistency is obtained. Mix for 3–5 minutes with a low speed drill (500 rpm max.).
After mixing, stir lightly with a spatula for a few seconds to release any entrapped air. The grout is then poured immediately into the prepared formwork. When carrying out baseplate grouting, ensure sufficient pressure head is maintained for uninterrupted mortar flow. For formwork repair, the prepared formwork must be firmly in place and kept watertight. When placing grout over a large area, it is important to maintain a continuous flow throughout. Work sequence must be properly organised to ensure an uninterrupted flow. In large areas, SikaGrout® GP AU may be pumped using heavy duty diaphragm pumps. Screw feed and piston pumps may also be used.
Specific Areas of Application
| Grouting under baseplate | Flowable consistency |
| Formwork grouting – pouring method | Flowable consistency |
| Formwork grouting – pre-packed method | Flowable / Plastic consistency |
| Grouting anchor bolts | Plastic / Stiff consistency |
| Dry packed / Precast grouting | Stiff consistency |
Grouting large volumes: For sections thicker than 100 mm, it is necessary to fill ikaGrout® GP AU with graded 10 mm silt free aggregates o minimise temperature rise generated during the during stage. The quantity of aggregates should not exceed 1 part aggregates to 1 part SikaGrout® GP AU by weight. For such mixes, a conventional concrete mixer and pump may be used. To further ensure that air entrapped during mixing is allowed to fully escape, it may be necessary to make breather holes. Use steel rods or chains to assist the flow of grout where necessary. Preliminary trials are recommended.
When formwork type repair is used, leave the formwork in place for at least 3 days. Upon removal of the formwork, cure the exposed surfaces
immediately with Antisol® curing compound or use other approved curing methods.
Colour accuracy disclaimer: We have taken care to display the most accurate visuals of our products. However, we are not responsible for the colour accuracy of the device you are viewing our swatches on. These variations arise due to different computer monitors and devices (make, model and technology, as well as resolution, contrast and brightness control settings) in much the same way a scan will differ from an original image and a colour photocopy. Furthermore, coatings can exhibit variation in perceived colour depending on gloss level and application method. If you require a very specific colour match, please make your selection via actual swatches and colour boards available at our showroom.
Product Disclaimer: Ensure you read all product, technical and safety data sheets prior to application as liability falls on the applicator. All products must be applied in accordance with manufacturer’s recommended method.
