Product catalog summary
Product Overview: Rapid Set® Concrete Mix is a high-performance, fast-setting, multipurpose concrete repair material. It is designed for durability in wet environments and is a blend of Rapid Set® hydraulic cement and quality aggregates. The mix is non-metallic, contains no chlorides, and sets in 20 minutes, ready for traffic in 1 hour.
Applications: Suitable for general and structural concrete repair, construction of pavements, formed work, footings, setting posts, industrial floors, and machine bases. It includes an air-entraining admixture for freeze-thaw durability in certain areas.
Environmental Advantages: The production of Rapid Set cement emits significantly less CO2 compared to Portland cement, contributing to a reduced carbon footprint.
Recommended Use: Apply in thicknesses from 2" to 24". For thinner sections, use Rapid Set® Cement All® or Rapid Set® Mortar Mix. Not suitable for high heat applications above 300°F. A test section is recommended for bonding applications.
Surface Preparation: Ensure the application surface is clean, sound, and free from materials that may inhibit bonding. Mechanically abrade the surface and remove unsound material. Apply to a thoroughly saturated surface without standing water.
Mixing Instructions: Use a power-driven mechanical mixer with clean potable water. Mix 3.5 to 4.5 quarts of water per 60-lb bag. For increased fluidity, use Rapid Set® FLOW Control® plasticizing admixture. Mix until a lump-free, uniform consistency is achieved.
Placement and Curing: Place using traditional methods, consolidate and screed quickly. Water cure all installations by keeping surfaces wet for at least 1 hour. Adjust curing time based on temperature and retarder use.
Physical Data: Initial set time is 20 minutes, final set is 35 minutes. Compressive strength reaches 3000 psi in 1 hour and 6000 psi in 28 days. Slant shear bond strength is 1200 psi in 1 day and 2200 psi in 28 days.
Safety and Handling: Avoid inhalation of dust and contact with skin and eyes. Use protective gear and ensure well-ventilated areas. In case of contact, rinse with water and seek medical attention if necessary.
Warranty: CTS Cement Manufacturing Corp. offers a limited warranty for material quality, with replacement or refund as the limit of responsibility.

CONCRETE MIX VERY RAPID HARDENING CONCRETE High Strength & Superior Durability Mixing: The use of a power-driven mechanical mixer, such as a mortar mixer or a drill-mounted mixer, is recommended. Organize work so that all personnel and equipment are in place before mixing. Use clean potable water. Rapid Set® Concrete Mix may be mixed using 3.5 to 4.5 quarts (3.3 to 4.2 L) of water per 60-lb (27-kg) bag. Use less water to achieve higher strengths. Do not exceed 4.5 quarts (4.2 L) of water per bag. For increased fluidity and workability use Rapid Set® Flow Control® plasticizing admixture from the...
