Our Non-Chloride Set Accelerator is a dry, white, powdered set accelerator packaged for use in pre-packaged mortar or concrete. It speeds up set times while increasing early compressive strength. The Set Accelerator contains calcium, but no chlorides. Chlorides, such as the commonly used Calcium Chloride, promote corrosion in steel, promote efflorescence, and disturb color dispersion in colored concrete or plaster. Unlike other non-chloride accelerators, such as those containing calcium nitrite, Fritz-Pak's Set Accelerator is not hazardous. No special handling, storage or transportation expense is required.

1. Tear or cut open the plastic bag.
2. Pour powdered contents into the wet mortar or concrete mix.
3. Mix thoroughly for 5 minutes to ensure complete dispersion of the Set Accelerator throughout the mix.
4. Use concrete as you normally would.

Start with one bag of Set Accelerator (5.6 oz) for each sack of concrete or mortar (usually 60-80 lbs). This equals about 1% calcium. Up to 3 bags per sack (about 3% calcium) may be used for faster acceleration. It will not hurt concrete to dose at higher rates, but you will probably not get additional benefit. You will usually get about 1-3 hours reduction in set time depending on temperature.

Factors that affect set acceleration time:
1. Percent of cement in your mix: the calcium in Set Accelerator reacts only with cement, so rich mixes will require higher doses.
2. Temperature. The acceleration effects are faster at lower temperatures. A 2% dose will give about 1 hr set time reduction at 85 F, and 3 hr set time reduction at 40 F.
3. Number of bags used. Higher doses give faster set times.

To calculate dosage based on precise weight of cement:
3 bags of Set Accelerator per 100 lbs of cement = 1%.

5.6 oz Set Accelerator per bag
24 bags/display box
6 Boxes (144 bags) per case
