0.0 (0)
SikaTop®-122 Plus is a two-component, polymer-modified, portland cement based, fast-setting, trowel-grade mortar. It is a high-performance repair mortar for horizontal and vertical surfaces and offers the additional benefit of Sika FerroGard® 901, a penetrating corrosion inhibitor.
- Extremely low shrinkage proven by four industry standard test methods
- High compressive and flexural strengths
- High abrasion resistance
- Increased freeze/thaw durability and resistance to deicing salts
- Compatible with coefficient of thermal expansion of concrete - Passes ASTM C-884
- Increased density - improved carbon dioxide resistance (carbonation) without adversely affecting water vapor transmission (not a vapor barrier)
- Sika FerroGard® 901, a penetrating corrosion inhibitor - reduces corrosion even in the adjacent concrete
Usage
- On grade, above and below grade on concrete and mortar.
- On horizontal surfaces.
- As a structural repair material for parking structures, industrial plants, walkways, bridges, tunnels, dams, ramps, floors, etc.
- To level concrete surfaces.
- As an overlay system for topping/resurfacing concrete.

MIXING
- Pour approximately 7/8 of Component ‘A’ into the mixing container.
- Add Component ‘B’ (powder) while mixing continuously.
- Mix mechanically with a low-speed drill (400–600 rpm) and mixing paddle or mortar mixer.
- Add remaining Component ‘A’ (liquid) to mix if a more loose consistency is desired.
- Mix to a uniform consistency, maximum 3 minutes.
- Thorough mixing and proper proportioning of the two components is necessary.
- Refer to ACI 306 Guidelines when there is a need to place this product in cold & hot temperatures. Thinner application will be more sensitive to the temperature
EXTENSION WITH AGGREGATES
- For applications greater than 1" (25.4 mm) in depth, add 3/8" (9.5 mm) coarse aggregate.
- Pour all of Component ‘A’ into mixing container.
- Add all of Component ‘B’ while mixing, then introduce 3/8" (9.5 mm) coarse aggregate at desired quantity.
- Mix to uniform consistency, maximum 3 minutes.
- The aggregate must be non-reactive (reference ASTM C-1260, C-227 and C-289), clean, well graded, Saturated Surface Dry (SSD), have low absorption and high density, and comply with ASTM C-33 size number 8 per Table 2.
- Do not use limestone aggregate.
- Variances in the quality of the aggregate will affect the physical properties of SikaTop®-122 Plus and may result in different strengths.
- The addition rate is 42 lb (19 kg) of aggregate per bag. It is approximately 3.0-4.5 gallons (11.3-17.0 L) by loose volume of aggregate.
APPLICATION
- SikaTop®-122 Plus must be scrubbed into the substrate, filling all pores and voids.
- Force material against edge of repair, working toward center.
- After filling repair, consolidate, then screed.
- Allow mortar or concrete to set to desired stiffness, then finish with wood or sponge float for a smooth surface, or broom or burlap-drag for a rough finish.
CURING TREATMENT
- As per ACI recommendations for Portland cement concrete, curing is required.
- Moist cure with wet burlap and polyethylene, a fine mist of water or a water Sika® Antisol®-250 W* compatible curing compound meeting ASTM C-309.
- Curing compounds adversely affect the adhesion of following lifts of mortar, leveling mortar or protective coatings.
- Moist curing should commence immediately after finishing.
- Protect freshly applied mortar from direct sunlight, wind, rain and frost.
- To prevent from freezing, cover with insulating material.
* Pretesting of curing compound is recommended.
