AP LIFT 430 is a two component, high strength, high density, hydro insensitive structural polyurethane foam. Unconfined density is approximately 3 lbs/cubic foot (48 kg/cubic meter).
USES |
|
• Filling abandoned pipes, mine shafts, etc.
• Lifting concrete slabs. • Stabilizing soil. • Filling abandoned pipes. • Filling voids. |
|
ADVANTAGES |
|
• Traffic ready in 15 minutes.

APPLICATION |
Note: the following are a few typical application descriptions. In case of other jobsite parameters, please contact our technical department.
For slab lifting, soil stabilization, consolidation grouting, and all other forms of geotechnical grouting, it is advised to review soil reports from the job site. Take note of all structural elements and considerations and consult with geotechnical or structural engineers as needed. Locate all utilities prior to drilling or driving pipes into the ground.
Soil probe spacing is most commonly 4-5’ (1.22-1.52 m) on center and as needed across the surface of the substrate. Depths will vary from job to job but must be established before work is to begin. Injection Technician should always confirm clearances and paths to injection sites for large equipment and/or Alchemy-Spetec mobile injection rigs.
Read the technical and safety data sheets prior to commencement of the injection work.
Alchemy-Spetec proportioning equipment in Cart System or Rig configurations should be tested to confirm equal flow and pressures from both A and B lines. MixMaster Pro should always be thoroughly inspected for cross-contamination or foreign buildup of any kind prior to injection.
Proportioning pump with heated lines, drill bits, MixMaster Pro injection gun, ports, Alchemy-Spetec Flush, soil probes.
After the injection, clean the pump with AP Flush 121. Conduct a full Alchemy-Spetec-recommended gun flush after every use. Material can remain in cleaned and capped lines. After injection, remove the packers from the concrete and fill the holes with a fast setting cement or any other appropriate filler material.
½” (12.7 mm) hydraulic tubing, flush pot, dial indicator cranes, airless flush pump, air compressor, ports, AP Flush 121.
Avoid injecting by temperatures below -4°F (-20°C). In extreme cold conditions it is recommended to warm both components to 60-80 degrees F (16 – 27 degrees C).
