Fosroc Conbextra® GP2 is a premium-quality non-shrink cementitious precision grout developed by Fosroc International for high-performance grouting applications requiring superior strength, excellent flowability, dimensional stability, and long-term durability. Specially formulated with high-quality Portland cement, carefully graded aggregates, and advanced chemical admixtures, Conbextra GP2 provides a reliable, high-strength grout capable of transferring heavy static and dynamic loads safely from machinery and structural components to their foundations.

Unlike conventional cement grout, Conbextra GP2 incorporates a controlled expansion system that compensates for plastic shrinkage during the early stages of hydration. This ensures complete contact between the grout, base plate, and foundation, eliminating voids and providing excellent load transfer. Its superior performance makes it one of the most trusted grouting solutions for industrial, commercial, infrastructure, and power generation projects worldwide.


Product Overview

Conbextra GP2 is supplied as a ready-to-use dry powder that requires only the addition of clean water before application. After mixing, it produces a smooth, highly flowable grout capable of filling narrow gaps and complex cavities beneath machinery, equipment, and structural components without segregation or bleeding.

Once cured, the grout develops high early and ultimate compressive strength while maintaining dimensional stability. This enables rapid commissioning of equipment and ensures long-term structural reliability even under continuous vibration and heavy loading conditions.

Its excellent workability allows contractors to perform grouting operations quickly and efficiently while achieving consistent results.


Composition

Fosroc Conbextra GP2 is manufactured using premium-quality raw materials, including:

  • High-Quality Portland Cement
  • Specially Graded Aggregates
  • Controlled Expansion Agents
  • Performance-Enhancing Chemical Admixtures
  • High-Flow Modifying Additives
  • Anti-Segregation Components

These carefully selected ingredients provide superior strength, excellent flow characteristics, and long-lasting durability.


Key Features and Benefits

Non-Shrink Performance

The controlled expansion system compensates for shrinkage during the early curing stage, ensuring complete bearing contact and eliminating void formation.

High Compressive Strength

Develops excellent early and ultimate compressive strength, making it suitable for supporting heavy industrial equipment and structural loads.

Excellent Flowability

Its free-flowing consistency enables easy placement beneath base plates, machine foundations, and confined spaces without vibration in most applications.

Superior Load Transfer

Provides full contact between the equipment and foundation, ensuring efficient transmission of static and dynamic loads.

Chloride-Free Formulation

Contains no chlorides, making it safe for use with reinforced concrete and steel components without increasing the risk of corrosion.

Mixing Instructions

For optimum performance:

  1. Measure the recommended quantity of clean water.
  2. Pour water into a clean mixing container.
  3. Gradually add Conbextra GP2 while continuously mixing.
  4. Mix mechanically until a smooth, lump-free grout is obtained.
  5. Use the grout immediately after mixing.
  6. Do not add extra water after the grout has begun to set.

Mechanical mixing is strongly recommended for consistent performance.


Application Procedure

  • Ensure all surfaces are clean, sound, and free from oil, grease, dust, and loose particles.
  • Pre-soak the concrete surface and remove excess standing water.
  • Position formwork securely to prevent grout leakage.
  • Pour grout continuously from one side to avoid air entrapment.
  • Allow the grout to flow naturally beneath the base plate.
  • Cure the exposed surface immediately after placement using approved curing methods.

Proper installation is essential for achieving maximum strength and long-term durability.


Packaging and Storage

Packaging

Typically supplied in 25 kg bags.

Storage

  • Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated location.
