Application

System to be used in the repair of active leaks within concrete, below ground or water retaining/excluding structures or for the repair of concrete defects in high risk areas

Description

The product line includes Krystol Plug, Krystol Repair Grout and Krystol T1, which can be used together to form the Krystol Leak Repair System.

 

Kryton Concrete Repair products are 100% compatible with the entire line of Krystol products. They can be used in concrete that was built yesterday, or structures needing waterproofing repair after decades of service.


Krystol Plug™:

A rapid-setting hydraulic cement product that when mixed with water is used to stop flowing water and repair leaking cracks, holes and joints in concrete. Krystol Plug sets hard within two minutes and has high-compressive strength, which allows it to stop water even under high-hydrostatic pressure. Stopping water flow then allows permanent repair of the leak using Krystol technology.

Features and benefits:

  • Can stop extreme leaks.
  • Stops flowing water immediately.
  • Sets fast, in one to two minutes.
  • Easy to mix and apply.
  • Will set up and harden under water.
  • Has exceptional strength.
  • Does not contain any chlorides.
  • Safe for drinking water applications.


Krystol Repair Grout™:

Crystalline concrete waterproofing product that stops the flow of water to permanently repair leaking cracks, holes and joints in concrete, and can also be used to resurface and waterproof defective, damaged or deteriorating concrete. The grout employs advanced fibre technology and shrinkage controlling additives to prevent cracking.

Features and benefits:

  • Contains Krystol crystalline waterproofing technology.
  • Simple and easy to use.
  • Non-shrink crack resistant.
  • NSF 61 Certified; safe for contact with potable water.
  • Colour matches concrete.
  • Can also be used by itself to repair spalled or honeycombed concrete.


Krystol T1:

Surface-applied crystalline slurry treatment that transforms new or existing concrete into a permanent waterproofing barrier.

It lowers the permeability of the concrete to protect against the ingress of water and waterborne chemicals. Since it becomes integral to the concrete, it can be applied to either the positive (wet) or negative (dry) side of the water pressure which allows reliable hydrostatic waterproofing protection and remediation for even the most difficult applications.

Features and benefits:

  • Contains Krystol technology. When applied to concrete, Krystol chemically reacts with water and un-hydrated cement particles to form needle-shaped crystals that fill capillary pores and micro-cracks in the concrete and permanently block the pathways for water and waterborne contaminants. Any moisture introduced over the lifespan of the concrete will initiate crystallization, ensuring permanent waterproofing protection
  • Permanent concrete waterproofing solution.
  • Increases reliability and quality control.
  • Increases durability thereby decreasing building maintenance and repair costs.
