When you need stronger, more durable concrete, adding a water reducer is the fastest and easiest way to adjust the mix. Fritz-Pak’s FR-1 lowers the water requirements of concrete, stucco, mortar, and other cementitious materials by up to 10%. While the product is not as powerful as our superplasticizers, it is still a great product to have around when you need to increase the strength and lower the water requirements of the mix.
Adding a water reducer, such as FR-1, provides improved workability and durability of your concrete mix. These products create a higher-strength mix for more economical prices. In addition, Frtiz-Pak’s FR-1 includes a small amount of delay set. So it is an excellent choice for working with concrete in hot weather. Finally, FR-1 comes packaged in our signature water-soluble bag for ease of use.
FR-1 is available in three different sizes, including a 50lb bag for those extra big jobs. Once you have added the admixture to your concrete, it is very important that you mix it thoroughly. Improper mixing will cause unsatisfactory results.
