In addition to its ease of application, strength and versatility, the important features of ROCKITE and KWIXSET are its CONTROLLED expansion (unlike iron bearing cement mixtures). Cured Rockite is a pleasing grey colour that blends with concrete. Rockite and Kwixset save costly dollars in down time as they can both be stressed loaded within two hours and fully set over seven days. The application procedure is so simple that that inexperienced labour can handle almost any installation. Rockite saves repair dollars because they ensure permanent results.
