    Ferromortar 707: Iron Fortified Non-Shrink Grout For Dry-Pack To Pourable Installation

    Uploaded by

    Francois-
    Ferromortar 707 is an iron fortified non-shrink grout that can be used for both dry-pack and pourable installations. It contains iron aggregate particles that provide exceptional flexural strength and fatigue resistance. It is suitable for exterior use and maintains contact with equipment to ensure proper stress transfer. The grout contains no reactive chlorides and corrosion inhibitors to protect metals. It develops high compressive strengths up to 80 MPa and flexural strengths up to 12 MPa depending on the consistency used. Proper mixing, placement, curing and temperature controls should be followed for best results.
