Application Steps:

Step 1 :

Ensure that the substrate is sound, clean, dry or "matt damp", and free from all surface contaminants. 

(Loose and friable particles can negatively affect the bonding of SikaSwell® PS-2010 to the substrate surface).

Step 2 : 

Cut SikaSwell® PS-2010 to the required length.

Step 3 : 

Apply SikaSwell® PS-2010 to the clean substrate surface to a thickness of ~5mm. 

Step 4 : 

Press SikaSwell® PS-2010 into the freshly applied SikaSwell® S-2. (Ensure SikaSwell® PS-2010 is fully bonded to the substrate surface) - a concrete cover of at least 8cm must be maintained on all sides when placing SikaSwell PS-2010.

Step 5 : 

Allow SikaSwell® S-2 to harden for 2 - 3 hours before placing concrete.

Step 6 : 

Protect SikaSwell® PS-2010 and SikaSwell® S-2 against water (e.g. rain) until the concrete is placed.
