SikaEmaco® T 60 Highway Rapid-Setting Bedding Mortar – 20 kg Bag

SikaEmaco® T 60 Highway is a high-performance, pre-mixed cementitious bedding mortar supplied in a 20 kg bag, designed for rapid repairs and installations in highway infrastructure and hard landscaping. Its shrinkage-compensated formulation provides high bond strength and rapid strength development, helping contractors complete repairs and return roads to service with minimal disruption.

Simply mix the powder with water on site to produce a workable mortar suitable for bedding and re-bedding access covers, installing manhole frames, securing kerbs and paving units, and anchoring steel components. Under specified conditions, the material allows traffic to return after approximately 60 minutes, helping minimise disruption to roads and public areas.

Designed for demanding maintenance work, SikaEmaco® T 60 Highway can be applied in layers from 10 mm to 100 mm thick. It offers high early and ultimate compressive strength, freeze-thaw resistance and a very low chloride content, making it suitable for use around cast iron and steel components.

Recommended applications

  • Re-bedding manhole covers and access chamber frames.

  • Installing frames in new roads and highways.

  • Bedding kerbs and paving units.

  • Installing paving slabs, blocks and granite setts.

  • Securing and supporting street furniture.

  • Anchoring reinforcing bars and threaded rods.

  • Emergency repairs to highway infrastructure.

  • Rapid repairs where minimising road closures and downtime is essential.

Key benefits

  • Rapid return to traffic: Designed to allow roads to reopen after approximately 60 minutes under specified conditions.

  • High early strength: Develops high compressive strength rapidly, helping reduce repair downtime.

  • Shrinkage compensated: Helps minimise shrinkage-related movement in the bedding layer.

  • Easy to prepare: Pre-mixed powder requires only the addition of water.

  • Wide application range: Suitable for layer thicknesses of 10–100 mm.

  • High bond strength: Supports secure bedding and installation of frames and other components.

  • Steel-compatible formulation: Very low soluble chloride content helps reduce the risk of chloride-related corrosion.

  • Freeze-thaw resistance: Designed to withstand repeated freezing and thawing.

  • Convenient bag format: The 20 kg bag is practical for handling, storage and smaller repair jobs.
