Concrete Repair Using Epoxy Crack Injection
Epoxy is an extremely tough and durable concrete repair adhesive made of two parts, a liquid resin and a hardener. After mixing, the liquid components cure to a very hard durable bond able to withstand harsh environments and wide temperature ranges. Epoxy bonds are stronger than concrete and will chemically weld cracks back together. Before injecting foundation cracks it is important to correct the problem that caused the crack if it is other than drying and shrinkage. Some concrete repair applications require the use of Emecole Carbon Fiber Staples in conjunction with an injection. Carbon Fiber Stitches provide a superior repair proven to take the load away from the repair glue line increasing long-term success.

Concrete Crack Injection Repair Systems
 |
The Emecole line of epoxy crack injection foundation repair systems encompasses viscosity requirements for any concrete crack width. This includes hair-line cracks needing the lowest effective viscosity for penetration (40 cps) to ½ inch or greater foundation cracks requiring viscous systems or even gels. Our concrete repair epoxy products are 100% solids, moisture insensitive, and exhibit a high modulus of elasticity. Each repair product meets ASTM C-881 finished product specifications. The products are formulated for low pressure manual injecting utilizing the advantages of dual cartridge dispensing. They are also available in gallon, pail, and drum bulk packaging for hand mixing or machine dispensing.

2 NEW, IMPROVED EPOXY INJECTION
FORMULATIONS NOW AVAILABLE
|
| |
LV, MV, HV, EHV, EEHV, GEL
|
|
|
|
Thickens to a non-flowing condition within
25 to 30 minutes of injecting, even in a hairline
crack, eliminating traditional “epoxy leak out”
the back or bottom of the crack. The new 1:1
mix ratio facilitates packaging in larger cartridges
which can reduce applicator cost.
|

|
|
|
|
Unlike other epoxy products, this
innovative formulation is suitable for curing
at temperatures as low as 32°F. Available
in viscosities ranging from medium to gel consistencies.
