Eurogrip 4500

Eurogrip 4500 is a high build coating that combines tough, flexible polyurethane resins with highly abrasion resistant aggregate. It has been specially formulated to accept a surface dressing of up to 5mm stone and to cure very quickly keeping disruption to the minimum and enabling a road or ramp to be returned to full use in about 3 hours depending on temperature. It also cures at low temperatures, adheres tenaciously to substrates.

Benefits

Improved safety, better traction, better breaking; Long service life compared with other similar syst; Minimal disruption to commercial operations-RAPID CURE; Cold applied using mixer and squeegee; Low hazard materials; Reduced wear on vehicles; Resistant to oils and solvents; Combines anti-skid with waterproofing; Minimal maintenance; Suitable for a wide range of substrates (steel, bitumen, concrete, etc); Low initial and whole life cost; Does not embrittle with age

PACKAGING

Eurogrip 4500 is supplied in 23 kg units and in 3 components. Packaging is 3ltr pot (pack A), 10ltr pot (pack B) and 12kg bag (pack C).. Aggregate is not included and must be purchased separately to the customer's specific requirements for anti-skid performance, color and texture.

Coverage and Cure

Both coverage and cure depend on ambient and surface temperatures, the type and condition of the substrate and the aggregate temperature and size. Coverage of the resin base generally falls in the range of 4 to 5kg/m2. Onto open graded bitumen based substrates coverage may be significantly reduced. In this event a scratch coat may be used. Aggregate loading varies with the chosen aggregate size and type but is typically between 12 and 14kg/m2.; Always ensure that there is always excess aggregate available on site to ensure full coverage prior to sweeping. Aggregate is available in a range of natural colors and sizes and in more vivid colors as coated aggregates.; Curing times: -; Initial set @ 20°C- 1 hour; Open to traffic @ 20°C- 2½ hours

Application Procedure

Ambient temperature should be between 5°C and 30°C during application and cure. Dry weather conditions and a dry substrate are essential. For low temperature application or application onto a steeply sloping surface refer to manufacturer.. Strict compliance with the mixing and laying procedure is critical - mixing times must not be exceeded. Materials include Eurogrip 4500 which comes as 3 components. It is used in conjunction with the customer's chosen aggregate. Pour the contents of Pack B into a suitable mixing vessel and mix using a drill and paddle until homogeneous. Whilst still mixing add the contents of Pack A and continue mixing for a further 20secs. Whilst still mixing slowly add the contents of Pack C and continue for 40secs until a homogeneous mixture is achieved. Mix only one unit at a time. Pour the mixed material onto the surface and immediately spread using a serrated squeegee to the specified coverage (do not spread too thinly). Broadcast the chosen aggregate onto the surface ensuring that there is no resin showing through. Remove any tape when resin starts to gel and excess aggregate when the surface becomes stable. This will vary with both product and ambient temperature.
