READERFAST is a Calcium Sulfo-aluminate (CSA) based product. The READERFAST products exhibit a range of properties to suit a wide spectrum of cement based applications where enhanced performance characteristics are required such as Rapid Set, High Early Strength, Shrinkage Compensation, Enhanced Durability, Low Permeability and Sulphate Resistance.
Predominantly the READERFAST cements are used by Formulators who use their own expertise and knowledge to produce blended products which benefit from the inherent properties of the READERFAST cement.
Typically used in any cement based products needing such properties for example:- Grouts, Floor Screeds, Tile Adhesives Tile Grouting, Sprayed Products, Mortars and Concrete.
READERFAST A is a premix of READERFAST and Synthetic Anhydrite for direct addition to Portland Cement to attain Rapid Set, High Early Strength and optimum Shrinkage Compensation. A typical mix gauged by weight is 2 parts Portland Cement to one part READERFAST A. The use of a wetting agent such as a Plasticiser or Super Plasticiser is recommended in all applications and will extend the workability of READERFAST Mixes.
