CRL KWX50 Kwixset 50 lb. Expanding CementC.R. Laurence KWX50 50 Lb. Kwixset Expanding Cement is an exceptional choice for both exterior and interior applications, designed for those who demand strength and reliability. This gray, hydraulic cement expands as it sets, ensuring superior bonding qualities that make it ideal for setting core mount stanchions and vertical posts. With a fast-setting time of just 15 to 20 minutes, it develops impressive compression strengths-4,600 psi in one hour, reaching up to 8,000 psi within seven days. Kwixset® is engineered to resist shrinkage and cracking, even in challenging conditions, making it a preferred solution for railings, brackets, and various fixtures. Its resilience to standing water further enhances its suitability for outdoor projects, while its smooth pourability simplifies application. For optimal results, the recommended mixing ratio is 4-1/2 oz. of water per pound of cement. Installation is best performed in temperatures above 40ºF (4ºC). Note that when using Kwixset with aluminum, it is crucial to ensure the aluminum is anodized or painted to prevent reactions. Choose C.R.
