Advantages |
N/A
MM-80P is a specially rebalanced formulation of our standard MM-80 designed to achieve optimal placement and curing characteristics when dispensed through dual-component pump systems. MM-80P's 1:1 mix ratio ensures compatibility with most pump systems and permits accurate and simple ratio monitoring. MM-80P's superior formulation yields sufficient rigidity to support loads crossing joints, protecting edges from spoiling, and sufficient resiliency to prevent brittleness throughout the floor's service life. MM-80P exhibits low range tensile and adhesive strengths, characteristics necessary to allow the joints to open as the concrete shrinkage progresses. MM-80P is formulated using the chemical backbone of our standard MM-80, the joint filler upon which ACI and PCA standards are based and the only joint filler that has a project-proven track record of providing the best floor joint protection in the industry for more than thirty-five years. |
Correct Joint Design/Installation |
N/A MM-80P should be installed full joint depth in saw-cut control joints (or 2" min. in joints where depth exceeds 2") per PCA and ACI guidelines. In construction (formed) joints that are not saw-cut, MM-80P should be installed 2" deep. If shrinkage crack is excessive and needs to be "choked off," it may be sealed with clean, dry silica sand as shown below (contractor's option). |
Packaging and Colors |
N/A MM-80P is available in 10 gal. (US) kits; (5 gals. Part A, 5 gals. Part B). Standard color is medium gray. MM-80P can be custom colored. Contact Metzger/McGuire for details. |
Applicable Specifications |
N/A There are no government or ASTM standards for floor joint fillers. MM-80P meets and/or exceeds the floor joint filler guidelines set forth by the American Concrete Institute (302.1 R-04 Guide for Concrete Floor and Slab Construction, ACI Committee 302), ACI 360 and PCA (Concrete Floors on Ground, Third Edition 2001, James A. Farny, PCA). |
