Sika® FerroGard®-901

Corrosion Inhibiting Admixture Sika FerroGard 901 offers owners, specifiers, port authorities, transport ministries and engineers a proven technology in corrosion inhibition that is easily added to ready-mix or precast concrete and repair mortars or grouts. This dual action inhibitor dramatically delays the initiation of corrosion and greatly reduces ongoing corrosion activity.

  • Multifunctional inhibitor, active at both anodic and cathodic sites of a corrosion cell.
  • High vapour pressure characteristic of inhibitor results in penetration through concrete.
  • High affinity for steel enables displacement of chloride ions from metal surfaces.
  • Forms a physical, high integrity and absorbed layer on the surface of embedded steel.
  • Continuous barrier protects reinforcement from corrosion caused by loss of alkalinity.
  • Creates an environment which restricts influence of moisture and oxygen in concrete.
  • Material performance is supported by significant test data and track record.

Usage

Sika FerroGard 901 is recommended for all steel reinforced concrete or repair mortars and grouts exposed to corrosive environments. Typical uses are:

  • Concrete bridges, highways and pavements exposed to de-icing salts
  • Concrete marine structures operating in chloride environments.
  • Concrete tunnels, infrastructure or retaining walls.
  • Concrete in industrial plants where corrosive substances are present.
  • Concrete parking structures and decks.
  • Concrete piers, piles, caissons and dock structures.

Sika FerroGard 901 specifically provides protection from chloride and carbonation induced corrosion.
