Mapei Lamposilex (Waterplug)
Rapid-Setting Hydraulic Plug for Sealing Active Water Leaks
Mapei Lamposilex is a rapid-setting, cement-based hydraulic mortar designed to instantly stop water ingress through cracks, joints, or holes in masonry and concrete structures. Commonly referred to as a "waterplug," Lamposilex expands as it sets, creating a mechanical seal even under pressure. It is ideal for use in waterproofing applications where active leaks need immediate control — including basements, tunnels, tanks, and foundations.
Key Features & Benefits
- Instant Leak Sealing: Stops active water flow within seconds of application.
- Expanding Seal: Expands during curing to tightly seal against water pressure.
- Fast Setting Time: Sets in 2 minutes or less, depending on ambient temperature.
- High Strength: Once cured, forms a durable and permanent seal resistant to pressure and moisture.
- Compatible with Waterproofing Systems: Can be overcoated with tanking slurries or membranes such as Biokil Crown Toptank or Newton 508.
Product Details
- Brand: Mapei
- Type: Hydraulic cement-based plugging mortar
- Form: Pre-blended powder (just add water)
- Colour: Grey
- Setting Time: Approx. 2 minutes
- Application Method: Hand-applied by gloved fingers or trowel
- Coverage: Variable depending on void size (refer to technical datasheet)
- SKU: LAMPO5
Application Instructions
- Surface Preparation: Cut out and clean the leaking area to remove any loose or weak material.
- Mixing: Add clean water to the powder to form a stiff, workable paste (only mix what can be used in 1 minute).
- Application: Press the paste firmly into the leak using a gloved hand. Hold in place until fully set.
- Finishing: Once the leak is sealed, surface can be finished or overcoated with waterproofing systems as required.
Limitations
- Only suitable for localised repairs and sealing. Not a substitute for full waterproofing systems.
- Do not apply below 5°C or onto frozen or contaminated surfaces.
Health & Safety
Contains cement: avoid inhalation of dust and contact with skin or eyes. Use gloves and goggles during mixing and application. Refer to the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for full guidance.
