PENETRON ADMIX RP

Red Pigment Crystalline Waterproofing Admixture
Providing Protection from Aggressive Chemicals and Corrosion

WHAT IS IT?

PENETRON ADMIX RP is a concrete admixture, containing a red pigment for quality control purposes, that lowers permeability, making concrete waterproof with crack self-healing abilities with added benefits of improved corrosion resistance, freeze-thaw resistance and extending overall concrete durability.

Self-Healing

HOW DOES IT WORK?

PENETRON ADMIX RP treated concrete becomes impermeable by forming insoluble crystals in all pores, capillaries and cracks up to 0.5mm (1/51 inch), resulting in a waterproof concrete matrix – waterproofing and protecting concrete from within.

WHO USES IT?

PENETRON ADMIX RP is used by every major concrete producer (ready-mix and precast). Ask your Penetron Representative for a customer list.

WHERE IS IT USED?

PENETRON ADMIX RP is primarily used in sewers, manholes and precast structures such as vaults, septic tanks, pipes and culverts.

HOW IS IT PACKAGED, SOLD & DISTRIBUTED?

PENETRON ADMIX RP is sold in pails containing two soluble bags of 6.6lb each. Pails reduce loss of material and decrease safety risks.

HOW DO YOU KNOW PENETRON IS IN THE MIX?

PENETRON ADMIX RP contains a red pigment that colors the concrete to have a slight red color. This is a quality control measure generally used in precast applications to indicate that PENETRON ADMIX RP has been added to the concrete – visible from a distance for inspection purposes.

IS IT COMPATIBLE WITH OTHER ADMIXTURES?

PENETRON ADMIX RP treated concrete is set neutral in practical conditions. It is compatible with most standard concrete admixtures and cement replacement materials. Penetron always recommends customer trials for their own confirmation.

WHAT PRODUCT SUPPORT IS OFFERED?

Penetron sells directly to concrete producers and precast facilities and with that comes direct support in mix trialing, as well as engineering and on-site support, to ensure full system protection for all involved parties.
