Sikalastic®-152 SA
Sikalastic®-152 SA is a 2-component, crack-bridging, fibre-reinforced cementitious mortar, with low elastic modulus with special additives for waterproofing and protection of concrete subgrades subject to flexural strain. Suitable for use in hot and tropical climates.
- Flexible waterproofing and concrete protection in one product
- Very good crack-bridging abilities
- Reliable application also in very humid environment
- All components ready delivered, no additional mixing water required
- Applicable also on lightly humid substrate
- Non sagging: easy application also on vertical walls
- Excellent adhesion onto lots of substrates such as concrete, cement mortars, stone, masonry

Usage
- Flexible waterproofing and protection of hydraulic structures such as basins, tanks, concrete piping, bridges and canals
- Waterproofing of bathrooms, shower, terraces, balconies, swimming pools before the application of ceramic tiles bonded with adhesives
- Waterproofing and protection of outer walls to be buried into the ground
- Inside waterproofing of light counter pressure water of walls and floors in basements

Product Details
Composition
Cement modified with polymers, selected alkali-resistant aggregates, microsilica and fibres.
Shelf life
12 months from the date of production, if stored properly in undamaged original sealed packaging.
Storage conditions
In dry and cool conditions.
Maximum Grain Size
Dmax : ~0.3 mm
System Structure
For bonding tiles or equivalent materials directly on Sikalastic®-152 SA, use SikaCeram® C2 type according to EN 12004 or an adhesive compatible with Sikalastic®-152 SA. The application can take place after the second layer has fully cured.
Tensile Adhesion Strength
≥ 0.8 N/mm2 (28 d) | (EN 1542) |
Crack Bridging Ability
Static | ≥ 0.9 mm (+23 °C) |
Dynamic | ≥ 0.2 mm (5 cycles / +23 °C) |
Water Penetration under Pressure
No penetration at 5 bar water pressure | (DIN 1048-5) |
Application
Mixing Ratio
Comp. A : Comp. B = 8 : 25 (weight)
Fresh Mortar Density
~1.55 kg/l
Layer Thickness
Minimum 2 mm with constant thickness, applied in minimum 2 layers (maximum recommended thickness per layer is 2 mm)
Ambient Air Temperature
+5 °C min. / +40 °C max.
Substrate Temperature
+5 °C min. / +40 °C max.
Pot Life
~2 h (+25 °C)
Waiting Time / Overcoating
Sikalastic®-152 SA must be properly hardened before over coating or contact with water. The following waiting times can be used as a guide:
+20 °C | |
Waiting time between coats | ~24 hours |
Lining with tiles | ~24 hours |
Coating by emulsion coat | ~2 days |
Immersion in water | ~2 days |
Waiting times may vary depending on humidity of environment and substrate.
Consumption
This depends on the substrate roughness as a guide: ~1.55 kg/m2/mm. This figure is theoretical and does not include for any additional material required due to surface porosity, surface profile, variations in level and wastage etc..
MIXING
Sikalastic®-152 SA can be mixed with a low speed (~500 r.p.m.) electric drill mixer. Shake carefully Comp. A before using. Then pour ~½ Comp. A into a suitable mixing container and add Comp. B slowly while mixing. When homogeneous, add the remaining amount of Comp. A, and mix thoroughly at least for 3 minutes, until the proper lump-free consistency is reached.
Do not add any additional water or other ingredients; each packaging unit must be entirely mixed.
APPLICATION
All connections between the substrate and pipe entries, plant and equipment, light switches etc., must be sealed and watertight. Joints in concrete, pipes, anywhere else in the structure must also be sealed and made watertight.
Use coved details at the floor/wall junctions.
Apply Sikalastic®-152 SA by means of a trowel onto the substrate, exerting a good pressure.
Apply the first coat of Sikalastic®-152 SA using a notched (3 x 3 mm) trowel, with firm even pressure onto the substrate in order to achieve a regular, consistent thickness. As soon as the first layer has hardened, apply the second coat of Sikalastic®-152 SA by trowel, taking care to achieve a uniform and continuous layer, which totally covers the first one.
In highly stressed areas a special alkali-resistant glass fibre fabric (eg. 150 - 160 g/m2 and 0.47 mm thick) shall be placed into the first fresh mortar layer. It shall be well trimmed and fully embedded into the mortar avoiding the formation of voids in the coating.
Sikalastic®-152 SA cannot be smoothed using float or sponge trowel. It is possible to smooth the surface as soon as the curing of the product is complete by light abrasion techniques
CLEANING OF EQUIPMENT
Clean all tools and application equipment with water immediately after use. Hardened material can only be mechanically removed.
