Sikadur®-330
Thixotropic epoxy impregnating resin for SikaWrap® structural fabrics
Sikadur®-330 is a two-part , thixotropic, epoxy-based impregnating and laminating resin for SikaWrap® structural strengthening fabrics.
- Easy to mix and apply
- Suitable for trowel and roller application
- Formulated for dry and wet manual application methods
- Vertical and overhead application
- Good adhesion to various substrates
- Good mechanical properties
- No primer required
Usage
Sikadur®-330 is used as a:- Substrate primer for the wet application method
- Impregnating or laminating resin for SikaWrap® fabric reinforcement dry application method
- Sika® CarboDur® S NSM profiles into surface slots
- SikaWrap® FX anchorage cord
- Sikadur® resins are formulated to have low creep under permanent loading. However, due to the creep behavior of all polymer materials under load, the long term structural design load must account for creep. Generally the long term structural design load must be lower than ¼ to ⅕ of the failure load. A structural engineer must be consulted for load calculations for the specific application.

Application
Mixing Ratio
Part A : Part B = 4 : 1 by weight
Product Temperature
Maximum | +35 °C |
Minimum | +10 °C |
Ambient Air Temperature
Maximum | +35 °C |
Minimum | +10 °C |
Dew Point
The substrate temperature must be at least +3 °C above dew point to reduce the risk of condensation decreasing adhesion.
Substrate Temperature
Maximum | +35 °C |
Minimum | +10 °C |
Substrate Moisture Content
≤ 4 % parts by weight
The following test methods can be used: Sika®-Tramex meter, CM-measurement or Oven-dry-method. No rising moisture according to ASTM (Polyethylene-sheet).
Pot Life
Temperature | Pot life | Open time |
+10 °C | ~90 minutes (5 kg) | ~90 minutes |
+23 °C | ~60 minutes (5 kg) | ~60 minutes |
+35 °C | ~30 minutes (5 kg) | ~30 minutes |
The pot life begins when Parts A+B are mixed. It is shorter at high temperatures and longer at low temperatures. The greater the quantity mixed, the shorter the pot life. To obtain longer workability at high temperatures, the mixed adhesive may be divided into smaller quantities. Another method is to chill Parts A+B before mixing (not below +5 °C).
Consumption
Guide: ~0.7–1.5 kg/m²

MIXING
PRE-BATCHED UNIT
- Mix part A (resin) briefly using a mixing spindle attached to a slow speed electric mixer (max. 300 rpm).

- Add both parts in the correct proportion into a suitable clean, dry container.
- Mix parts A+B continuously for at least 3 minutes until a uniformly coloured smooth consistency mix has been achieved.
- IMPORTANT Avoid entraining air into the mix by over-mixing. To ensure thorough mixing, pour materials into a clean container and mix again for 1 minute.
Mixing time for A+B = 4 minutes.

850 41 02 Method Statement SikaWrap® manual dry application
IMPORTANT
Application by trained personnel
The application of this Product must only be carried out by an applicator that is trained or approved by Sika. The applicator must also be experienced in this type of application.
IMPORTANT
Strictly follow installation procedures
Strictly follow installation procedures as defined in Method Statements, application manuals and working instructions which must always be adjusted to the actual site conditions.
Preconditions
For application in cold or hot conditions, pre-condition the material for 24 hours in temperature-controlled storage facilities.
Dry before application of the next layer or coating.
- At low temperatures or high relative humidity, a tacky residue (blush) may form on the surface of the cured product. To apply an additional layer of fabric or a coating remove the residue with warm soapy water to ensure adequate bond.
- Protect from rain for at least 24 hours after application.
For further information on number of layers or creep, consult a structural engineer for calculations.
CLEANING OF TOOLS
Clean all tools and application equipment with Sika® Colma Cleaner immediately after use. Hardened material can only be removed mechanically.
