Feb Wintamix extended information
Feb Wintamix is chloride free, liquid admixture which combines acceleration with the proven frost protection benefits of air entrainment in mortars and non structural concrete, thus allowing work to continue even at sub-zero temperatures.
Feb Wintamix is designed to be used as mortar admixture throughout the winter period. The air entraining qualities of the product improves the workability of bricklaying mortars. This ensures that the operation can continue to work at optimum rates. Feb WINTAMIX also includes chloride free frost proofing chemicals which accelerate the set during the cold periods.
The user will therefore find it unnecessary to change to a conventional frostproofer.
Feb Wintamix USES
- Great mortar admixture for the winter period.
- Air entraining qualities improve the workability of bricklaying mortars to work at optimum rates
- Frost proof to accelerate setting time

APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS
MIXING
Add Feb Wintamix to the gauging water or introduce into the mixing drum at the same time as the water. When mortar is blended by hand it should be vigorously mixed to achieve maximum plasticity. All sands for mortar shall comply with the relevant British Standard i.e. BS 1200 for Bricklayers Mortars and work should progress in accordance with the methods laid down in the Code of Practice BS 5628 Part 3 for protection and use of mortars at low temperatures.
