Sika Setting Sand extended information

APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS

SUBSTRATE QUALITY / PRE-TREATMENT

Ensure that the paving to be jointed is dry and free from loose dirt, oil, debris and grease etc. It is essential the joint widths are a minimum of 2mm and maximum 5mm wide with a minimum depth of 25mm. Do not prefill joints with sand. Sika® Setting Sand should be applied to the entire joint depth.

APPLICATION

It is recommended to carry out a small trial in an inconspicuous area or on off-cuts of paving prior to application.

Due to the nature of Sika Setting Sand, some settling of contents will occur. It is important to re-mix the dry material before use. Discard any small lumps and do not add extra sand to the dry material.

Use in small, manageable amounts and avoid spreading over a large area. Sweep the material into the joints, making sure each joint is completely filled.
If rain is expected prior to hardening, the surface must be protected to ensure a smooth finish. Sweep up any excess material immediately as it can be difficult to remove once set. Thoroughly soak the joints with a hosepipe set to spray or a watering can fitted with a rose. Do not use a pressure washer. Ensure joints are all fully saturated. Rinse excess material from the surface. The finished surface is safe to walk upon immediately after activation, but ideally should be left to dry. Drying will normally take 1 – 2 days although the time required for full cure is dependent upon temperature. At lower temperatures, the cure time will be slower. It will take up to 28 days to achieve full cure.

CLEANING OF TOOLS

Clean tools immediately after use with warm soapy water.

LIMITATIONS

  • Do not use on joints smaller than 2mm wide. Joints that taper to a width less than 2mm could result in failure.
  • Joint depth must be a minimum of 25mm.
  • Read all instructions carefully before use.
  • Do not apply when rain is imminent or when temperature is 5°C or below.
  • The jointing should not be cleaned by use of high pressure washers until cured for at least 28 days. The distance between nozzles and jointing must be at least 10cm.
  • Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions carefully. As the company cannot be aware of all the applications and materials the product may be used on, it is the user’s responsibility to determine suitability for use.
  • Sika Setting Sand is unsuitable for long term use under water immersion although it will withstand typical wet/dry cycles.
  • Ensure paved areas, beds and joints are well drained – ideally from beneath – to avoid standing water in joints over long periods.
