Sakrete 60205005 Hydraulic Cement Leak Stopper 10 Pounds

Product Description

The SAKRETE OF NORTH AMERICA 60205005 is a hydraulic cement compound engineered to stop active water leaks in concrete, masonry, and pool structures. Mixed with water only, it expands as it sets to mechanically lock into cracks and voids, even when water is actively flowing through the repair area. The compound sets faster than comparable hydraulic cement products, making it a practical choice for time-sensitive repairs where water intrusion cannot be stopped prior to patching. It is suitable for both dry and fully submerged applications, including swimming pool shell repairs.

This product is used in residential and commercial settings wherever concrete or masonry is subject to water intrusion. Common applications include foundation walls, basement floors, retaining walls, cisterns, water tanks, and swimming pool repairs. Pool service professionals use it for below-waterline crack and penetration repairs without full pool drainage. Plumbers and general contractors rely on it for sealing pipe penetrations and joint repairs in concrete structures where immediate leak control is required.

Key Features

• Stops leaks instantly, even with water actively flowing through the repair area
• Expands during set to lock tightly into cracks and voids
• Faster set time compared to similar hydraulic cement products
• Works fully submerged, suitable for swimming pool shell repairs
• Mixed with water only — no additives required
• Suitable for both interior and exterior concrete and masonry applications

Compatibility

Designed for use on concrete, masonry, and similar porous substrates subject to water infiltration, including swimming pool shells, foundation walls, retaining walls, water tanks, and cisterns.

Installation Notes

Application is typically performed by licensed plumbers, pool service technicians, or experienced general contractors depending on the repair context. Chip the repair area to a minimum undercut profile to allow the expanding cement to lock in mechanically. Mix only the quantity that can be placed within the working time of the product, as hydraulic cement sets rapidly. Personal protective equipment including gloves and eye protection should be worn during mixing and application, as the material generates heat during hydration.
