Sika SikaGrout 713

SikaGrout-713 is a high-precision, single-component cement-based grout with specially graded mineral aggregates designed to deliver reliable structural support in equipment grouting, baseplate installation, and precision anchoring applications. Engineered for demanding environments where machinery requires stable, non-shrinking support, this versatile formulation provides consistent performance across multiple placement consistencies — from fluid to damp pack — without bleeding or settlement that could compromise load transfer efficiency.

This grout achieves impressive compressive strengths up to 8,500 psi at 28 days and allows for early form stripping or shoulder trimming, helping reduce project timelines. Its non-shrinking properties ensure no gaps develop around equipment and forms, while excellent flowability enables pumping into intricate or hard-to-reach areas. Meeting ASTM C1107 and US Army Corps of Engineers CRD C621 standards, SikaGrout-713 delivers freeze/thaw resistance for exterior applications while maintaining the appearance of conventional concrete or mortar.

Key Features of SikaGrout-713

Single Component Formula
Ready-to-mix powder requires only the addition of potable water, eliminating mixing errors and simplifying jobsite logistics.

Non-Shrinking Performance
Hardens without bleeding or settlement, providing maximum effective bearing area for optimum load transfer and leaving no gaps around equipment.

Multiple Consistency Options
Adjustable from fluid (25-30 second flow cone) to damp pack consistency, allowing adaptation to specific jobsite conditions and placement requirements.

High Compressive Strength
Achieves 3,400 psi in plastic consistency at 1 day, reaching 8,500 psi at 28 days for reliable long-term structural performance.

Excellent Flowability
Highly fluid characteristics allow pumpability into intricate spaces and inaccessible areas beneath machinery and structural components.

Standards Compliance
Meets ASTM C1107 and US Army Corps of Engineers CRD C621 requirements at fluid consistency over a 5-10 minute working time.

Freeze/Thaw Resistant
Formulated for exterior applications with resistance to freeze/thaw cycling, suitable for outdoor installation environments.

Early Form Removal
Allows early form stripping or shoulder trimming, reducing project duration and enabling faster construction schedules.

Recommended Applications for SikaGrout 713

SikaGrout-713 is engineered for contractors and engineers working on precision grouting projects where dimensional stability and high bearing strength are critical.

Ideal Applications Include:

• • Precision equipment, baseplate, soleplate, and column grouting
  • Pump and tank bases requiring stable, vibration-resistant support
  • Conveyors, fan housings, and drive motor installations
  • Grouting precast wall panels, beams, and columns
  • Concrete systems and structural building members
  • Curtain wall connections and architectural precast elements
  • Anchor bolt, rebar, and dowel rod grouting applications

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the minimum placement thickness for SikaGrout-713?
The minimum recommended placement thickness is 1 inch (25 mm). For lifts exceeding 6 inches (152 mm) in depth, consult your local Sika representative before installation.

How much water should be mixed with each bag?
A 55 lb bag typically requires 11.25 lbs (5.1 kg) or 1.35 gallons (5.1 L) of potable water, producing approximately 0.52 ft³ (0.015 m³) of grout. Water usage varies with desired consistency requirements.

What compressive strengths can be expected?
Compressive strength varies by consistency: plastic achieves 8,500 psi at 28 days, flowable reaches 7,500 psi, and fluid consistency develops 7,000 psi at full cure.

Is this grout suitable for exterior use?
Yes, SikaGrout-713 is freeze/thaw resistant and formulated for exterior applications. However, it should not be used in marine environments or areas with continuous water immersion.

What mixing time is required?
Mix for a minimum of 3 minutes after all material and water are combined in the mixer. Use only mechanical mixing equipment — hand mixing is not recommended.

Can this product be used as a floor topping?
No, SikaGrout-713 should not be used as a floor topping material. It is specifically designed for precision grouting applications with minimum 1-inch thickness requirements.
