High strength and impact resistance

SKU: 17446

SikaGrout 885 MF is a precision-engineered, cement-based grout designed to meet the demanding requirements of heavy industrial equipment installations. Its proprietary blend of metallic and quartz aggregates provides high compressive strength, excellent impact resistance, and dependable support under static and dynamic loads. These qualities make it ideal for grouting critical baseplates where structural integrity and consistent performance are essential.

This non-shrink grout is formulated to remain dimensionally stable during curing, eliminating the risk of settlement or bleeding. It self-consolidates under equipment, ensuring full contact and maximum effective bearing area without the need for vibration. With a working time of approximately 30 minutes, it allows for safe, controlled placement in challenging conditions — whether in confined spaces, deep pours, or elevated temperatures.

SikaGrout 885 MF is also low in dust generation, enhancing worker safety and cleanliness during mixing and placement. Its pumpable consistency and high fluidity make it suitable for both manual and mechanical application methods. Additionally, the grout is resistant to thermal cycling, freeze/thaw exposure, and sulfate attack, making it a reliable choice for both indoor and outdoor grouting applications in manufacturing plants, power stations, wastewater facilities, and marine environments.

Data Sheet

Key Features

High Early and Ultimate Strength

Delivers compressive strengths up to 11,000 psi at 28 days and excellent flexural and tensile performance.

Extended Working Time

30-minute working time allows for flexible placement under varying conditions without compromising flow or strength.

Non-Shrink Formula

Hardened grout resists settlement and bleeding, providing maximum effective bearing area, self-consolidatoin, and long-term stability.

Low Dust

Reduces airborne particulates by 65% compared to standard grouts, enhancing jobsite cleanliness and worker safety.

Pumpable and High Fluidity

Easily placed by pouring or pumping. Flows freely under baseplates without vibration, simplifying large-scale pours.

Thermal and Chemical Resistance

Handles heating/cooling cycles and resists sulfates, making it suitable for marine, wastewater, and chemical environments.

Recommended Applications

SikaGrout 885 MF is engineered for demanding grouting applications where dimensional stability, high strength, and long-term durability are critical. It is commonly used for setting compressors, turbines, generators, drive motors, pump bases, and heavy stamping equipment. The grout performs exceptionally well in supporting pulverizers, roller mills, crushers, and other machinery subject to repetitive loading or vibration. Additional applications include structural steel baseplates, anchor bolts, dowels, rebar embedments, and support pads for tanks and vessels.

Its high-performance characteristics make SikaGrout 885 MF particularly well-suited for manufacturing plants, power generation facilities, and industrial environments where exposure to thermal cycling, dynamic loads, or aggressive chemicals is expected. Whether placed indoors or outdoors, it delivers consistent support and lasting performance under the toughest conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the working time of SikaGrout 885 MF?

The working time is approximately 30 minutes, allowing for consistent placement in larger or more complex forms.
