Accelerating and Water Reducing Admixture

ACCELGUARD® HE is a combination accelerating and water-reducing admixture for concrete. It improves the plastic and hardened properties of concrete such as workability, compressive and flexural strength and freeze-thaw resistance. It is a chloride based material, compatible with air entraining agents, but should be dispensed separately into the concrete mix.

Features & Benefits

• Speeds up the setting time
• Provides high early strength for fast form stripping
• Cuts construction cost - no cold weather delays
• Densifies concrete
• Minimizes bleeding and segregation and keeps the concrete cohesive

Applications

• Cold weather concreting
• Structural concrete
• Concrete block
• Concrete pipe and many pre-cast items

Specifications / Compliances

• ASTM C 494, Type C & E admixture specifications
• AASHTO M 194

Packaging

ACCELGUARD® HE is available in bulk, 275 gal (1041 L) totes, 55 gal (208 L) drums and 5 gal (18.9 L) pails.
