Mainline™ is an extremely versatile, cementitious, rapid setting, semi-leveling structural repair concrete. It is a single component powder that is water activated. Mainline™ has 20 - 45 minutes of working time and will reach compressive strengths of more than 2,000 psi within 4 hours from the addition of water. Mainline™ can be applied in ambient temperature ranges from 30 to 120 degrees Fahrenheit. Mainline™ finishes like traditional Portland based concrete and cleans up easily with water. Mainline™ rapid repair concrete offers all of the performance and ease of use characteristics associated with CERATECH’s Pavemend® High Performance Repair Products, in a low cost, turn-key, aggregate extended package.

Recommended Uses
Mainline™ has been designed for horizontal applications providing for low cost structural repair of building restoration/balcony projects, loading dock ramps, parking garages, and form and pour projects.

Technical Data
Results provided by licensed engineering test laboratory and represent typical results from production materials. Actual results may vary from third party testing results; however, CERATECH’s materials meet and/or exceed established internal quality control standards, (available upon request) . All samples were air cured.

• Pre-wet cement mixer with water then drain all water from mixer (away from repair area)
• Start mixer - Add Water - Mainline™ requires a total of 2 quarts of water per 53.5lb. unit. Initially, add-in only 1 quart of water. (Mainline™ is a water to binder sensitive cement. NEVER use less than 2 quarts of water nor MORE THAN 2 1/8 quarts of water per 53.5lb. unit of Mainline™.)
• Add pre-determined units of Mainline™ Mix for 1 minute
• Add -in remaining quart of water per 53.5lb. unit of Mainline™
• Mix for 6 additional minutes or 7 minutes total
• Pour all contents into repair area
• Clean mixer or repeat process for next batch
   
  

1. In ambient temperatures, < 50°F/10°C, use warm water between 70°F/22°C and 90°F/32°C
2. In ambient temperatures > 85°F/29°C, use cooler water between 50°F/10°C and 70°F/22°C
3. Working times will vary when mix water temperature’s are outside of these recommendations
4. Minimum recommended batch size is 2 units (Use 4 quarts of water for 2 bag batches)

• Surfaces of host concrete must be damp (SSD) with no standing water.
• Working times based on ambient temperature, types of aggregate and total amount of water
• Working times are influenced by surface temperature and repair profile.
• Minimum profile thickness is 1.25" (3.2 cm). There are no restrictions to the depth of the repair profile.
• Upon initial set, a broom finish can be applied. Upon final set, the material can be saw-cut, drilled, sanded and/or polished
• Do not re-temper. The addition of water to the surface of the repair will negatively affect the materials final properties.
• General loading in 4 hours for wheeled traffic and 2 hours for foot traffic after addition of water.
• All previously existing joints must be re-established within 4 hours of final set.
• Self-curing, protect with blankets or equivalent in ambient temperatures below freezing (32°F/0°C). 
• Clean all tools and equipment with water prior to the material reaching final set.

• See Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS).
• This document does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this document to establish appropriate safety and health practices and to determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
• Dispose of water materials in accordance with Federal, State, and Local regulations.
• The use of a dust mask, safety goggles and gloves is recommended.
• Keep out of reach of children.
