- Structural reinstatement of new and old reinforced concrete elements such as beams and columns
- Repair and re-profiling of piles
- Particularly suitable for reinstatement of honeycombed concrete and or areas of congested reinforcement
- Reinstatement of floor beams and slabs
- Grouting of precast elements
- Grouting of machine and turbine baseplates, bridge bearings, and crane rails

The figures behind it.
- 12.7 liters per 25 kg.
- Composition of the mix: 100 kg of Mapegrout ME 05 12.4-13.2 kg of water
- Pour 3.1-3.3 Iitres of clean potable grade water into a forced-action concrete mixer.
- 100 parts in weight of Mapegrout ME 05 with 13% of water
- The addition of Mapecure SRA in proportions of up to 0.25% has the ability to reduce drying shrinkage by between 20% and 50%.
Consumption on site depends on the substrate, the tool and the applicator, which is why wastage is yours to set. The result is a quantity to plan and quote with, not a guarantee of coverage. Confirm the system against the current Mapei technical data sheet before ordering.

Where it is not the right product.
- Do not use Mapegrout ME05 on smooth concrete surfaces; roughen such surfaces
- Do not use Mapegrout ME05 for precision anchoring (use Mapefill GP ME or Mapefill SP ME)
- Do not use Mapegrout ME05 for applications on vertical surfaces without formwork (use Mapegrout T60 ME or Mapegrout T80)
- Do not add cement or any other additives to Mapegrout ME05
- Do not add more water than the recommended dosage
