PRODUCT INFORMATION
Packaging SikaControl®-777 is available in 5 litre & 220 kg.
Shelf Life 12 months from date of production if stored in unopened, undamaged
and original sealed packaging.
Storage Conditions SikaControl®-777 must be stored where temperatures do not drop below
+5°C. If product has frozen, thaw at +5°C or above and completely recon-
stitute using mild mechanical agitation. Do not use pressurized air for agit-
ation. Store under cover, out of direct sunlight and protect from extremes
of temperature.
Failure to comply with the recommended storage conditions may result in
premature deterioration of the product or packaging.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
Recommended Dosage As a guide, a dosage range of 100 ml to 200 ml per 50kg bag of cementi-
tious material is recommended.
Optimum dosage of SikaControl®-777 should be determined with trial
mixes. Higher dosages may be required when cer-tain combinations of ma-
terials and conditions are present or water reduction in excess of 15% is
required. Because of variations in concrete materials, job site conditions,
and/or applications, dosages outside of the recommended range may be
required.
Points to remember when producing waterproof concrete
▪ Ensure water / cement ratio is within the range of 0.40 to 0.60.
▪ Keep water content as low as possible.
▪ Place concrete quickly and compact it well.
▪ Ensure complete curing with a Sika® Antisol® curing compound.
Effects of Over Dosage
A severe over-dosage of SikaControl®-777 shall result in some of the fol-
lowings:
▪ Extension of initial and final set
▪ Increase in air entrainment
▪ Bleed/segregation of mix, quick loss of workability
▪ Increased plastic shrinkage
A slight overdosing may not adversely affect the ultimate strength of the
concrete and can achieve higher strengths than normal concrete, provided
it is properly compacted and cured. Due allowance should be made for the
effect of fluid concrete pressure on form work, and stripping times should
be monitored.
Compatibility SikaControl®-777 is compatible with most admixtures used in the produc-
tion of quality concrete including normal, other mid-range and high-range
water-reducing admixtures, air entrainers, accelerators, retarders, exten-
ded setcontrol admixtures, corrosion inhibitors, and shrinkage reducers.
SikaControl®-777 is also compatible with slag and pozzolans such as fly ash
and silica fume.
