Parex Thixtropic Joint Filler is a pumped mortar purpose-designed for filling joints and gaps in precast concrete units without the need for formwork. The thixotropic qualities of the mortar and non-shrink additives allow it to stay in place without slumping and to provide a complete high strength bond between sections. Before forming an initial set, it can be tooled off to provide a complete and smooth joint. The material can be used for placing in horizontal and vertical gaps of 5mm to 100mm where a cementitious mortar infill is required and flow grouting is inappropriate. It requires only the addition of water on site and is mixed using a drill and paddle followed by hand or mechanical pump placement. For larger jobs mixer pumps can be used. Thixtropic Joint Filler is chloride-free and can be safely used in contact with steel reinforcement. Uses includes structural support between and beneath precast concrete elements, permanent insitu shuttering in joints between precast concrete elements which will be post grouted and rapid placement using Duo-Pump systems.
  • Easily mixed and applied.
  • Chloride-free.
  • Wide application range (gaps 5 to 100mm).

Parex Thixtropic Joint Filler FAQs

What is Parex Thixtropic Joint Filler?

Parex Thixtropic Joint Filler is stay-in-place pumped mortar, specially formulated for filling gaps and voids in precast concrete construction without the need for shuttering.

How do I prepare the surface before applying Parex Thixtropic Joint Filler?

Contact surfaces should be sound and clean. Remove all loose material, heavy mill scale and oily deposits.

The prepared surfaces should be pre-dampened. Remove any standing water, leaving a matt damp appearance before placing the Parex Thixotropic Joint Filler.

How do I apply Parex Thixtropic Joint Filler?

Hand mixed mortar should be loaded into a suitable pump unit and placed in accordance with the pump supplier’s instructions. Duo-Mix units will allow the mortar to be mixed and placed continuously from the single unit. Pumping rates of some 12 to 15 litres per minute have been found to be satisfactory. At these rates the build up of hydrostatic pressure in vertical joints will not cause the grout to flow from openings in the jointing area.

Ensure complete filling of the gap and then finish the exposed surface with a dampened steel trowel.
