Chemrite® CIT
Thixotropic Crack Injection Epoxy
Overview
CHEMRITE® CIT is a thixotropic epoxy injection compound used to repair cracks and fill gaps in concrete structures. As the name states, the thixotropic properties make it the ideal compound to use when a low viscosity epoxy leaks or is difficult to restrain.
​
CHEMRITE® CIT can be used in high or low pressure applications. It is best suited to cracks/gaps between 1 and 6 mm (Low pressure) and 0.3 – 3 mm (High Pressure).
