Application
Prior to application, Flex 2000 is heated to approx. 30C by storage in warm water. This ensures the materials optimum texture for application. The inside of the duct must be throroughly cleaned from dust, sand, and other loose particles. Before applying Flex 2000, a securing block of a two-component PUR foam is applied at a depth of 10 cm. The Flex 2000 cartridge is then placed into the applicator and the material is pressed into the duct from back to front utilizing the flexible nozzle so that the resulting layer is min. 8 cm thick. After sealing cable ducts, joggle the cables slightly and press Flex 2000 into potential voids created by the joggling. Make sure that the cable lies free of tension after finishing the sealing. Finally, the sealing compound set back approx. 1 cm is pressed in well and smoothed with a metal filler knife. As an additional safeguard, the orifice of the duct is closed with fast-curing cement. If a new cable is to be added later on, the mortar barrier is removed and the cable is pushed through the sealing compound. Subsequently, the duct is resealed by use of Flex 2000.
