Joint Fill & Repair

Heartland Warehouse Renovation

Introduction:

This article explores the training and application of SealBoss 6500 Polyurea Joint Filler and JointMaster Pro2 Pump in an aerospace facility renovation, emphasizing the importance of proper floor joint repair in industrial settings.

Focusing on a case study from St. Louis, Missouri, we highlight how a local contractor, new to joint filling, received hands-on training from a SealBoss Technical Representative.

The project involved repairing 6,000 linear feet of floor joints to meet the demands of a high-profile aerospace company, showcasing the effectiveness of professional training and high-quality materials in preparing warehouses for heavy-duty use.

Aerospace Facility Floor Joint Fill and Repair with SealBoss 6500 Polyurea Joint Filler and JointMaster Pro2 Joint Filling Pump

With development of building tilt-up warehouses on the rise across the country, many are not quite suited for the new lessee and required renovations and improvements, as they must be made prior to moving in and the beginning of operations.

SealBoss Expertise Elevates Industrial Floor Solutions

On-Site Expertise from SealBoss

In the bustling heart of St. Louis, Missouri, a SealBoss Technical Representative was summoned to impart specialized training on the SealBoss Floor Repair Systems to a local contracting team. This professional enrichment was tailored to equip the team with the requisite skills for executing imperative renovations, facilitating the seamless transition for an esteemed lessee’s occupancy.

Catering to a High-Profile Client with Superior Products

The project was commissioned by a renowned Aerospace company, necessitating the warehouse to be adept at handling and storing hefty aerospace components. In response to the rigorous demands of such a high-caliber client, the SealBoss 6500 heavy-duty, fast-cure polyurea joint filler was selected. This premium product, boasting an A 80 Shore hardness coupled with 200% elongation, was strategically chosen to ensure seamless navigation of heavy forklift traffic throughout the facility, thereby maintaining operational fluidity.

Innovative Technology: The JointMaster Pro2 Joint Fill Pump

The project team, albeit inexperienced with joint filler technologies and the sophisticated JointMaster Pro2 professional battery-equipped dispensing pump, received comprehensive training from the seasoned SealBoss representative. This hands-on educational approach facilitated a swift acclimation to the cutting-edge equipment, ensuring the crew was well-prepared to tackle the task ahead with confidence.

Project Scope and Ambitions

The undertaking involved the meticulous repair and filling of approximately 6,000 linear feet of floor joints within the warehouse. The ambitious goal was set to accomplish this extensive joint fill within a single day, a testament to the efficiency and effectiveness of SealBoss solutions.

Meticulous Preparation for Optimal Outcomes

Preparatory actions were meticulously carried out the day prior to the main operation. The contractor diligently removed any failing joint fill, addressing adhesion and delamination issues to ensure a clean slate. The joints were then methodically cleaned and outfitted with backer rod to the required depth, setting the stage for an optimal repair process.

Strategic Team Composition for Enhanced Efficiency

A strategic three-man crew configuration was recommended to streamline the workflow: one individual to operate the pump, another to precisely apply the SealBoss 6500 polyurea joint fill, and a third ‘floater’ tasked with shaving the joints within the critical 8-15 minute window and replenishing materials as needed. This efficient division of labor was designed to maximize productivity and ensure a smooth execution of tasks.

Empowering Training Leads to Remarkable Results

Following a succinct yet thorough briefing covering the materials, pump operation, and cleaning procedures, coupled with a brief but intensive 20-minute hands-on training session, the novice crew rapidly adapted to the demands of the project. Achieving an impressive dispensing rate of over half a gallon per minute, the team successfully filled and shaved 6,000 linear feet of joints during the training day, a remarkable feat demonstrating the transformative power of expert guidance and high-quality SealBoss products.

“We Provide Field Service When You Need It!

We have been offering experienced and responsive technical support since 1988. While providing on-site support and training, we create a positive learning environment focusing on building applicator confidence allowing for successful repairs to be continued after the training. From training new companies and their employees, SealBoss has continued to provide support to our clients for over 36 years.

On-site training consists of an overview of products, the pump and it’s features. This is followed by hands on training with actual dispensing of material on the job site until the applicator has gotten confident with the application techniques and nuances of the material used. Finally we focus on the correct cleaning procedure of the equipment.

We won’t leave a jobsite till I know everyone is comfortable with the systems and can reteach the next person in line.

With a knowledgeable technical support team, we are here to help with any questions you may have.”

Freezer Floor Crack Repair

Freezer Floor Repair

The addage ‘time is money and money is time’ is no mystery to warehouse operators and owners.

When valuable foods such as meats, seafoods or produce are stored in areas with cold temperatures, floor repairs needs can start to present themselves, especially when ice becomes an issue.

In the freezer department of a food handling facility, the transition threshold between the freezer area and the cold prep area was in jeopardy due to spalling.

Warehouse operators and owners understand how important it is to keep the floors in smooth and navigable condition.

Besides the obvious concerns of safety, hygiene, and aesthetics, pallet jacks may get stuck and damaged, and warehouse forklift wheels take a constant pounding.

Safety is the always the number one concern for the responsible and liable business operators. Pallet jacks and forklifts need to run as smoothly as possible over floors, ramps, and transitions — for the security and safety of the operators and the merchandise.

Forklift tires and other impact related repairs or equipment replacement can be very expensive. When the equipment is rattled and chewed up by damaged concrete floors and ramps the costs add up quickly.

Last, but not least, good hygiene and manageable, clean surfaces are an expected standard in a food product environment.

Something Needed To Be Done

Freezer Floor Crack and Spall Repair with SealBoss QuickFix

SealBoss 6060 QuickFix has the ability to cure in temperatures as low as -20° F / -29° C making it an incredibly resilient and reliable product to repair damaged floors in the harshest conditions.

With a set time of less than 5 minutes at room temperature, a good repair team can return a warehouse floor back to service in the same day, keeping business flowing and the revenue stream healthy.

Warehouse owners do not have the luxury of waiting full shifts to allow for products to cure over the span of several hours but rather need something that can get the job done within half of a working day.

Prior to the repair, SealBoss 6060 QuickFix has to be thoroughly mixed and, when used in colder ambient temperatures, conditioned to room temperature in order to achieve the best results. Properly prepped material is key to ensuring the job goes smoothly, as the final curing of the material happens only within minutes after applying the mixed material.

The spall has to be dry, debris free and uniform in depth, with a minimum of ¾ of an inch. Taking these steps will ensure good adhesion and prevent delamination.

As an example, with this job where the material was used to great success, a blowtorch was applied briefly to the substrate in order to melt and remove any ice, to get rid of excessive moisture and to warm up the general area for good bond and quick cure.

Important: Application should not leave any gaps between substrate and repair. Any entry points for water must be sealed to prevent water from entering. Joints and gaps can be filled with flexible SealBoss 6500 Polyurea Joint Filler.

When used in conjunction with the SealBoss 6500 Polyurea Joint Filler, these two SealBoss QuickFix Line floor repair products provide a 1-2 punch that allows for fast back to service operations.
