- Basements, foundations
- Mining structures
Advantages Key benefits⌄
- Highly effective emergency water-stopping performance
- Single-component, pre-packaged system — only clean water required
- Excellent adhesion to prepared substrates
- Low heat generation, reducing the risk of thermal cracking
- Chloride-free formulation for enhanced durability and reliability
Description What it is⌄
Snquick Plug is delivered as a ready-to-use blend of dry powders requiring only clean water on-site. It produces a consistent, rapid-setting mortar that is easy to apply, even in challenging conditions. Formulated with a combination of cements, graded aggregates, special fillers and chemical additives, it offers controlled setting times and reduces the risk of thermal cracking.
Technical Support Service⌄
SN Chemical provides a wide range of high-performance, premium-quality concrete repair and construction products, and delivers expert technical support to specifiers, end users and contractors — including on-site assistance across the country.
Design Criteria Application guidance⌄
Snquick Plug can be applied to horizontal, vertical or overhead surfaces across a wide range of thicknesses. Typically, the amount mixed and applied in a single layer is limited to what can be placed using a trowel or gloved hand. Thicker applications can be built up in multiple layers.
Properties Key values⌄
| Property | Value | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Initial set time | Approx. 1–2 mins at 30°C | Set times extend when mixed/applied at lower temperatures. |
| Compressive strength | 25 N/mm² @ 28 days @ 30°C | As stated. |
| Heat generation characteristics | Low heat output to minimize shrinkage/thermal cracking risk | High exotherm can lead to cracking; this system is designed to reduce that risk. |
Specification Clause Copy & paste⌄
Water stopping mortar
The water-stopping mortar shall be Snquick Plug, a single-component cement-based product that requires only the addition of clean water on site. It must be free from chlorides and formulated with a low exothermic reaction to reduce the risk of thermal cracking.
Application Instructions — Preparation Surface prep⌄
- Patch areas must be cut back to a minimum depth of 15 mm, ensuring a strong mechanical key (no feather edges).
- Clean thoroughly to remove loose particles, dust and laitance.
- Remove grease, algae or mould using steam cleaning or high-pressure water jetting.
- For light oil/grease contamination, use a suitable proprietary degreasing agent.
- To seal leaks, chase cracks to approx. 20 mm and undercut (avoid a V-section). Remove loose material and debris.
Mixing Ratio⌄
Mixing proportions (by volume):
- Add Snquick Plug to clean water.
- Mix to a stiff consistency using a trowel or gloved hand.
- Only mix an amount that can be applied within the specified setting time.
Application How to apply⌄
- Apply using a trowel or by hand-kneading, ensuring full contact with the substrate before setting begins.
- For running water: firmly press into place and hold until the initial set is achieved.
Cleaning Tools⌄
- Clean tools, equipment and mixers with clean water immediately after use and before the material sets.
- Once cured, removal is only possible by mechanical means.
Limitations Do not use⌄
Packaging Pack size⌄
- 1 kg Stand Up Pouch
- 5 kg HDPE bag
Storage & Shelf Life 6 months⌄
Shelf life: 6 months if kept in a dry store in the original, unopened pouch/bag.

Snquick Plug contains cement-based powders that release alkalis when mixed or damp and can be harmful to skin.
- Avoid inhaling dust or contact with skin and eyes.
- Wear appropriate protective clothing, gloves, eye and respiratory protection.
- Barrier creams may provide additional protection.
- If on skin: rinse with plenty of clean water and wash with soap.
- If in eyes: rinse immediately with water and seek medical advice.
