Roklin's PolyFlex DS Black, Asphalt Repair, 3-Gallon Case

Description

ASPHALT & CONCRETE REPAIRS MADE SIMPLE!
(1) 3-Gal Kit of Roklin PolyFlex DS Asphalt & Concrete Repair, Black
PolyFlex DS is designed for the experienced users of Roklin’s products.
PolyFlex DS, (
formerly known as Dopey Soup)
comes in black and grey and can be used for
both concrete repair
and
asphalt repair
. Designed to be used with almost any type of aggregate that is available locally, PolyFlex DS must be used with aggregate that is very clean, dry, and free of dust and debris. We recommend the use of our specially-coated sand for the best possible results.
PolyFlex DS chemicals and aggregates must be carefully measured to achieve the correct 1-to-1 ratio. It is also important that you do adequate testing for your specific application. Performance may vary depending on the type of aggregate used and the type of end use.
"I used the Roklin products to repair the cracked and chipped areas of concrete at the entrance to our Home Office building. The job was done quickly and simply — this stuff really works!"

How To:
From Roklin Systems, Inc., comes
PolyFlex DS for rapid concrete and asphalt repair
. With no saw-cut or demolition required, prep is quick and easy, usually just blown air. Damaged areas can be returned to traffic in a fraction of the time required for traditional repair methods. The polymer-based repair works in areas where there is a lot of movement, damaged base or where other repairs materials have failed.
When repairing damaged concrete or asphalt ensure that the damaged area is clean and dry. Sweep or blow out the repair area so there is no loose debris. Working with Roklin’s FloMix for asphalt or FlexSet for concrete, carefully pour contents of bottle “a” into provided 5-gallon bucket then add clean aggregate and special sand as needed. Next, shake thoroughly and pour bottle “b” into sand/aggregate mixture. Mix with an egg-beater style pail mixer, using a drill.
In colder months or when there is little time for the repair, catalyst can be supplied as an additive to speed the reaction.
Where To Use Roklin's PolyFlex DS:
Roads and highways
Streets and sidewalks
Driveways and parking lots
Highway shoulders
Airports and runways
Maintenance covers and drains
Bridges and loading docks
Ramps and slabs
Floors and decks
Foundations and bases
Playgrounds
"I need a product to handle crack repairs, spalling, and particularly bridge decks and approaches where different rates of flexibility are a problem. I've tried all the alternatives but nothing works like this. It's really amazing — I've never had a single failure, and I started using it on an R&D basis since 1988. You can expect 10 years of life from your repairs with the Roklin system."

The Advantages/Benefits of Roklin Urethane Polymer Based Repair Products
Minimal Preparation
With most conventional repair materials there considerable time and labor involved with dig-out and haul-away prior to installation. Roklin products require only that you blow out, or vacuum the damaged area to remove loose rock, dust, and dirt. You don’t need saw cuts or primers, but it is important to remove any moisture from the application area. It is rare to spend more than 5-10 minutes for preparation.
Simple Installation
There is no need for heavy equipment or extensive worker training to apply Roklin materials. FlexSet and FloMix come in pre-measured, pre-weighed kits containing the exact amount to be mixed. They can be mixed with a bird cage mixer and a drill, or our Motor Mix Machine.
Lower Labor Costs
Most applications can be done by a two man crew. In many instances two men can set up the road closure and do the installation. Most installations will be completed in less than an hour from start to finish, so that repair productivity is at a high level.
Quick Setting
Roklin products usually set up within 12-15 minutes at 75°F. The repaired area can be put back into service, and will support high load traffic within 45 minutes to an hour. This allows for short closures and traffic delays, less exposure of workers to traffic, and contributes to lower cost overall.
Safe to Use
As mentioned before, Roklin products have been used in thousands of installations over the last 20 years without incident. The materials contain no solvents or VOC’S, and have exhibited exposure levels substantially below OSHA limits in outdoor tests.
Seals and Waterproofs
As opposed to many conventional repair materials, Roklin polyurethane repairs are completely impervious to water and effectively seal the pavement so the water cannot reach the sub-base to cause erosion, corrosion of rebar, or further deterioration.
Long Lasting/ Durable
Due to the high strength properties and excellent adhesion of Roklin products to the substrate, our repairs last considerably longer than conventional materials. We have installations that have been in place for over 10 years in some very high traffic, heavy load bearing freeways in California.
Unaffected by Heat or Cold
Not only can Roklin products be applied over a wide temperature range (-10°F to 140°F), they are not affected by extreme temperatures once they are in place. There is minimal expansion/contraction of the polymer/aggregate mix once the material is fully cured.
Good Chemical Resistance to Oils, Hydraulic Fluids and Diesel and Gasoline
Our materials have been tested and show no deterioration or loss of physical properties when exposed to these chemicals that are commonly found on roadways and parking areas, etc.
Enhances Smooth Ride
All Roklin products are self-leveling, and can be easily be feathered into the surrounding substrate to restore the original grade level to mismatched slabs or sunken areas.
Effective Load Transfer
Because of the flexural properties, repairs done with Roklin products effectively transfer repeated impact loads between concrete freeway slabs. The rigidity of concrete under repeated impact load is one of the primary causes of corner spalling in roadway slabs.
Reduces Tort Liability
The capability of Roklin products to immediately repair hazardous conditions that may appear without warning can greatly reduce the possibility of lawsuits, justified or not, which could cost thousands of dollars.
Overall Cost Effectiveness
Even though Roklin products are sometimes more expensive than conventional materials initially, the advantages listed above can actually save a significant amount of money in the long run. An example of cost savings is a recent job that was done by Cal-Trans in Valencia. Typically, replacement cost for concrete freeway slabs is in excess of 00 per slab, depending on the number of slabs replaced at one time. In Valencia, Roklin products were used to stabilize the base and repair 10 freeway slabs on I-5, in two hours of closure time, at a total cost of less than 00.
