Batimix Concrete 580

Shotcrete for wet process applications - General use

Description

BATIMIX Concrete 580 is a pre-blended shotcrete mixture designed for the general use of wet process applications. It contains Portland cement, selected additives, and carefully-graded fine and coarse aggregates. It exhibits enhanced shotcrete characteristics and physical properties.

BATIMIX Concrete 580 is thoroughly mixed with water and introduced into the shotcrete equipment. The wet material, which exhibits improved cohesion characteristics, is pumped through the hose and compressed air added at the nozzle. It impacts the surface at high velocity resulting in a well-compacted product that is easy to place and consolidate.
