Dry Cast Plasticizer
ConTec SP-306 combines a swipe agent with an effective mix lubricant and hydration aid. Its unique chemistry creates a low to moderate swipe appearance while its lubrication properties minimize both feed and compaction times. SP-306 is ready-to-use liquid for use in most low slump concrete masonry units. It improves compaction and density producing higher compressive strength and less permeable units.
Features & Benefits
- Improves cement particle dispersion & hydration
- Produces a low to moderate swipe
- Increases compressive strength
- Optimizes material flow to shorten machine cycle times
- Creates more defined edges improving overall appearance
- Reduces mechanical abrasion in equipment
Applications
ConTec SP-306 can be used in all types of manufactured concrete where low to moderate swipe is desired. SP-306 is not a water reducer.

TECHNICAL INFORMATION
ConTec SP-306 is available in bulk quantities or packaged in 55-gallon drims and 260 gallon totes. An ICT representative will work with you to determine the proper dispensing system to match your operation.
ConTec SP-306 must be stored at temperatures above 35 degrees, Care should be taken to prevent the product from freezing. Should SP-306 freeze, warm until completely liquid then use mechanical agitation to reconstitute.
The typical dosage range for ConTec SP-306 is 2-5 fl oz/100 lb (1330-325 mL/100 kg) of cement. As with most plasticizers, water content should be monitored to achieve desired appearance. Consult your ICT technical representative for recommendations and guidelines for your application.
